Why does the Yahoo Answers Team always use premade answers?
I answer all the time on Yahoo Answers but you can always tell when the Yahoo Team is answering because all their answers are the exact same thing and always end with 'and keep using answers.com'. Its like they copy and paste the same exact answer no matter what is asked. One of them even calls eveyone dear no matter who is asking. How many of you out there would like to see the Yahoo Answers Team be as spontaneous as the rest of us with our answers and answer people from their experience and from their hearts vs from a preset mode?

I understand both sides of this dilemma.
The answers team surely gets the same questions day in and day out so it gets very repetitious. So a form letter is the solution.
On the other hand it is very frustrating to get a form letter which makes one wonder if they even read the question.

It's not Y!A. Those are answers from spammers; the real payload of those answers is the first hyperlink, which you may have noticed is always to some spammy site that doesn't actually answer the question. Click the report button and report them as spam.

I am an individual answering questions, I am not part of any team. I do not have any prepared answers, I just answer or not as my knowledge and experience allows, purely as a gift to humanity.
