Am I wasting my time here?
I like to ask hard questions. I don't like drama. I just want to see what others think about certain issues. I have had a question stricken. Kind of insulted though it proved my point. Should I jump from this site? What forums should I seek for philosophical discussion?

Yes, if you are looking for deep philosophical discussions you are wasting your time here. This site is generally filled with idiots and losers with no life. i am certain a google search will turn up some sites with forums to discuss philosophical stuff.

If you use Yahoo! Answers for 'discussion', you ARE wasting your time because that is not the purpose of the site. And it's likely that your questions will be deleted, especially if you make a habit of reopening the question and responding to other users as they answer ... that is 'chatting'.
It's entirely fine to post a question that is 'hard' ... to see how others answer. As long as your questions are not inflammatory, they're probably within the guidelines and if one of those is removed as a violation, appeal the violation.
Sorry, can't recommend a forum for philosophical discussion, but I'm sure there are plenty out there!
