Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and the Yahoo Answers website is now in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Has YA changed the length of time you can keep a question open?

I responded to a question that's three weeks old and still has two weeks left. Is this something new YA has offered?

    What it asked by an 'Official' or 'Staff' person? They get preferential treatment. For the rest of us, 4 days (or 8 if extended the 1 time allowed) is all we get.

    Hello ! i have not noticed from that point of view but i have noticed that i am getting ten points for answering far later than was normal before. I had one at least 8 weeks.

    Happy new year to you.
