I thought peoples are asking question to find answer, but it is not so they are asking to earn points.?

I thought questions are asked to get correct answer, as they dont have any solution with them or they are not satisfied with that. but recently i found questions are asked to earn points. so some times they are selecting as best answer themselves from another email ID. hence i am sorry I dont want to answer any questions now onwards.

Thanque

    How can a person earn points by asking questions? . One looses 5 points on asking a question. Yaa... some people may be doing such things. But all are not the same. It's your wish regarding Q&A. I personally think, some people are very serious and some are not. . It's a fun-filled way of exchanging information. Views and opinions differ from person to person.

    No i do no longer think of that they could desire to be a point 3 in the past they are in a position to ask a question. Radgal: final evening i replaced into pronounced with the aid of a troll with the aid of the call of Kaitlyn who's a point 3 who claims she/he's a 27 12 months old transsexual woman who has been finished time on account that she/he replaced into 13. Who retains addressing her/him self as a guy and continually needs to understand if a guy can positioned in this jacket or can a guy could have the call Kaitlyn. So i do no longer think of putting limit on human beings will artwork Trolls are in straight forward terms a undeniable soreness interior the @$$

    Hi Shrikant,

    You would agree that there are all kinds of people in this world. Likewise most of the users on answers are here because they want to share their knowledge and expertise. Many users are here because they genuinely find it a great place to find answers to things they want to know. However when you ask a question on this site you lose 5 points so i dont really know how someone could ask questions to gain points.

    Let this not discourage you from your goal of asking questions to find answers to your queries. There are many people out here who do the same.

    I hope you will continue to use Yahoo! Answers and benefit from this experience.

    Dear Shrikant,

    Some of them are doing so, not all are doing this for point.

    As we all heart that a single fish can spoil whole water.

    And we also have some bad fishes.
