Dont you hate all these jokers on Y!A? why cant they just be serious and answer questions like they should?
know what i mean? should i report them when they dont use this forum as they should? how about you? do you report, and why? is it because of offensive language/content, or you just dont agree with what they say, or is it something else? if you've reported, please explain why, so i can get a better feel for the 'community' in which i share my time.
thanks, and god bless.

you're supposed to have fun and NOT be serious in P&S. until your mentality changes, you're a troll in my book and i'll block you.
nothing personal, but i cant afford another suspension, when in all reality im a pretty nice guy.

Some jokers are just joking in a clean, friendly way. (Like me) Others are rude and offensive, and I often just ignore them. I'm not going to waste my time reporting them. Being serious is not the whole point- some laughing and joking is okay! Its for people to help other people and to share a little laughs, not to be completely serious!

I've only reported somebody once, when they were cussing me out after i asked a question. I usually don't report answers unless they realllyy deserve it. I think the main jokers are on P&S, which is expected!! But yeah, it does sometimes bug me when people are sarcastic, but only if im the one asking the question.

mystere is in the wrong here. Y!A has some question that ARE meant to be fun. BUT i have asked some question that were serious and have some pretty stupid/false answers. i have reported them because it was inappropriate. most of them, depending on what words they use, i've just rated their answers with a thumbs down. but if you feel that you sould report them then do it. i mean it is your question, Right?

I only report when someone is being racist, or uses bad language. I never report someone that states their opinion... unless they say something offensive to anyone or about anything.
thank you have a nice day/night =)

Polls and Surveys is not a serious section. I am serious when needed. But not here. This is where I come to be silly.
I hope your joking.
I never report and I never thumbs down. It is a waste of time.

I can't help it if I'm a joker, a smoker, a midnight toker. I sure don’t want to hurt no one. I’m a picker, I’m a grinner, I’m a lover, and I’m a sinner . . . really love your peaches wanna shake your tree.

polls and surveys are supposed to ask questions that require strange and often funny. however, if you EVER feel the need to seriously report someone, do it. but don't be a drag doing it.

P&S is the place to come when you don't want to be serious.....when you just want to be a bit wacky and silly.
I've reported people who have said harmful or sexual things about children.
