Why do we have to have the 5 previous questions asking the same thing?
Within 5 hours time, we have had 5 questions in a row asking essentially the same thing, about watching online streaming of NRL games. Can't anyone read the answers to the other questions?

Yes it is spam, and they are most likely a multiple accounts user advertising the online streaming on their website so they get more hits.
Be grateful that there are only 5 of them, sometimes in the cricket section I've seen 25 of them for one match.

It's a form of phishing, trying to get people to certain online-streaming sites. I've reported these questions, but they still keep popping up.
Ignore them, Skando .. they're like those phishing sites for cheap sports clothing that pop up all the time. Not worth looking at.

Yeah, I realised that too. I'm figuring that they wanted to watch the team they support and as a last ditch moment quickly created a Yahoo Answers account and quickly posted the question. I'd even go as far to say that at least 20% of Yahoo! Answers accounts are created and only used to post one question and not even choose a best answer.
I don't really see how it's spam and I don't think it's an urgent matter to report it but I'm sure there would be no real harm if you do.

For the sole purpose of irritating the crap out of all the users here.
I must admit it is working.
