    Actually, I've started asking a few questions. You're right, the quality is lacking but there are some shining stars now and then.

    People are lazy and don't want to even do a basic search to see if a question has been asked. Most questions you can get better and accurate information by using google or another search engine. I find it sad that people are relying on this site for instant suicide assistance and approval for their haircuts, etc.

    What bothers me more than the questions are the answers. I have asked two questions because I could not find out the answer doing my own research. In the first case, all the answers were wrong. In the second, the only answer I received was a solicitation to use their website (if I wanted to use the internet to sell by product I would not have specifically asked about business in my area. Duh!).

    Don't answer the question unless you really have some relevant information to the question. Don't express opinions unless that is what the question asks for. Some of the answers are so pathetic and lame, if not down right rude.

    i do not know if the question quality has declined, so much as the repeats over and over, the same thing.

    in the 'motorcycles' section, it is the same 4 questions

    what is a good bike to start with

    how do I make my bike faster

    how do I get out of a ticket

    why doesn't my boyfriend like me riding with other guys

    it is really getting tiresome

    Many are the same questions over over and over. They are also always asked by the begenierrs. Peoplpe passed level 3 and sometimes 2 know that intestead of asking the question you can just search for the question.
