why do people respond when they have no answers?
I just asked a question for this site. I got 12 hits and they all said "I don't know" Yay! This will be my last yahoo answers post. What a iece of crap. I' like to hear from you if you have experienced the same dissapointment.

That's against the rules. Report them.
Every body has experienced some disappointment to a certain degree. Some people worse than others. It does become incredibly annoying when people reply with no-brainer replies. I'd prefer to get 1 decent answer than 20 worthless answers. It helps to search around the different category's to see which one would get the best answers. Some of the ones YA suggest are crap. I remember I once asked a question about my dog and it came up in the Olympics category. WHAT?!?
Anyway, keep asking until you get an answer that helps you, after all that's what this website is about. :)

Nope, never been disappointed yet, sure I`ve had a few "don`t knows".Had a few laughs at the funnier ones also. Lighten up, join in with the fun. Can`t believe you did`nt get an answer out of 12 hits, must of been some question!

Because they just want the 2 points.
Some people even answers with "I'm here for the points"

People answer questions this way because they still earn their two points, whether they have an answer that may help you or not.

They are cheating, trying to get extra points for nothing. You should report them and they will lose 10 points.

Very selfish people, they just want points. Pay no attention to them. They are violating the community guidelines!

They respond just to get the points.I don't know why its so important to them. Its not like you get anything for getting the points.

They cannot accept it. Try ask a more intelligent question that will interest them.
