There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Why don't people check their typing?

If the people here really want to have their questions answered, it would be better if we could read/understand them. The grammer, spelling and punctuation is horrible!

Update:

Sorry about the typo. Should be grammar. (But at least you all knew what I meant) Not like some of the people/questions here.

    Most of the spelling errors I can deal with but some of the wording is incomprehensible. You need a mind reader to understand what they are trying to say/ask and then they get all mad because your answer had nothing to do with what they were trying to ask. Well excuse me for assuming you were writing in English.

    Really, I agree!

    BUT YOU SPELLED "grammer" with an "e."

    Grammar is spelled "grammAr"

    And this site provides a 'Check Spelling' tool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I think they're either too lazy or ignorant!

    I truly wish this site would NOT allow any questions to be asked without the person using the correct grammar, spelling and punctuation!

    I agree with you and have taken time to let some offenders know about it. I have been reprimanded by the Yahoo Answers supervisors for doing so. They penalized me by taking points away and then basically told me to ignore the errors made and just answer questions. It ticked me off but I still enjoy yahoo answers.
