24 FAN asked in SportsAuto RacingNASCAR · 8 years ago

New to "Yahoo Answers"?

I recently signed up for Yahoo Answers. I have a passion for Nascar and like to talk to people who are knowledgeable about the sport, get opinions, share stories, etc. But yesterday I answered a question that someone posted and another person gave me some smarta** remark about my answer. I could have easily just answered the question "yes" or "no" but I enjoy elaborating a little just to inform people of interesting Nascar facts. I also enjoy reading the religion questions but there are some real characters on there. So I guess I will just sign off and stay away from this site. Thanks to the people who have been nice and friendly.

    when jeff Gordon is driving along and tony stewart pulls up next to him and pushes him into the wall and pulls ahead of him does he just pull into pit row and head over to his trailer to watch the rest of the race? no, he keeps going.

    you have to be thick skinned to make it at this place. just pound out the dents, get 4 new tires and get back out on the track.

    Don't give up just because of one bad apple. We have all had a few of those. I use to write long explanations and have found that most people like them short and concise. When the question requires several answers I try to do it justice. Also, answers with very strong opinions don't always do well. Try using a few different options and play around with it. Don't let a bad first impression stop you, When I get chosen as best answer then I feel like I really helped someone and many people have given me good answers when I've asked questions. When all else fails I return to Yahoo Answers because I always get the answer I need.

    Good Luck.

    It says you have been a member since 2010. Anyway, you should know that you have to have thick skin to be a Nascar fan. Especially a Jeff Gordon fan.

    You got to ignore the assholes. Their are a lot of knowledgeable Nascar fans here.

    A lot of people tend to mock others on here. I'll talk Nascar with you, though. I love the sport.

  • Sorry to hear it, dear fan of Jeff Gordon, but sadly this is what Yahoo! Answers is, at least often. The best is to try to ignore the guys and answer it the way you want. THEY want answers, so they HAVE TO read it anyway. If another wastes an answer to be a smartazz, laugh at him or don't give him any sign of recognition because in general, there aren't many guys who just answer questions without any sign of sarcasm.

    Source(s): please don't leave because of one smartazz

    Don't go stick around. There are bad apples in the religion section also, there are some good people here. Some do get carried away at times, but you have to ignore them.

    Dude don't take Y/A seriously or personally, Have fun with it! Stick around man!

    Unfortunately there are a handful of people that think this is their own personal site and try to bully the other users. Just stick up for yourself and give it right back to them.
