What is the most annoying thing that people do on Yahoo answers?

For me it's people who use "lol" and :) all the time, no matter what their answer is. Example:" I dont know look it up on google lol" or "eat ice cream :)" or "I'm depressed :)". ARGHHHHH!

    That is annoying. For me #1 is not typing out three letter words like "are" or "you" Our public education system is that bad! That lol thing gets on my nerves too. I got caught in a wood chipper lol.

    Yahoo!Answers..Your pipeline to the Global Brain... right!

    How bout people who give a totally wrong answer to a question.

    For example.

    Q: When did Yahoo!Answers premier?

    A: It was December 7, 2005 but, you'll be pressing your luck if you ask the question.

    There's all kinds of people from all walks of life on Y!A and nothing surprises me anymore. (:

    I hate when they ask the same question 2 or 3 times in a row. I think once is enough. LOL (Just Kidding)

    I don't like the answers that are mean or degrading when the question is for advice and help. Move on to another area of questions and let someone give a helpful answer....

    Well,you pretty well described it: it is way annoying that the spell check is not even used.

    Sometimes I think:is this English?

    More annoying are those people who give rude answers to any question:examples enough.

    And all those abbreviations are ridiculous.

    I agree:some level of normality is not asked to much.is it?

    Most annoying thing: people who post inappropriate pictures as avatars... they get away with it, a horrible offense in my opinion, while a lot of us are getting penalized for "Not a Question or an Answer."

    I think it's those really short answers people give on those complicated questions that i find annoying.It seems like all they want is the two points.Grr!

    I also get extremely annoyed when people use caps lock too much.It seems like you are shouting or something..

    When people don't use spell check. Come on. It's right there. At least if you can't spell, use spell check and act like you do. People who ask, "what's the name of this song?" And when they describe it, you have no clue what they are talkin about? How can you help somebody if they don't give you enough clues? People who say racist things. People who say dumb, immature things.
