Do you think Y!A is a friendly community?

Sometimes you come across some really nice answers, but sometimes an answer is just flat out rude. So do you think that the Yahoo! Answers community, in GENERAL, is friendly? Or rude and mean?

    So and so.

    It is a very huge place so it has to have both good and bad sides.

    I try to avoid and ignore those who I know are deliberately rude. There's nothing else I can do and I don't want to feed trolls.

    I've never really thought about it being "good or bad", I just ignore the really young ones out here that are trying to get a rise out of people. Most of them have nothing better to do.

    I think like a lot of things, you just need to look. It's pretty easy to find the good ones out here in time.

    Plus, there's some funny people just having a good time.

    Generally speaking most a great users but there are those who are less-friendly for lack of a better word

    polls & surveys is full of smart azzes such as myself.But in general we like to be more on the relaxed and happy side than the angry and rude side.

    Basically we like to laugh and have fun.Good qualities i would say.Some people take it too far though,i will also say that.

    So far Y!A has given me many many hours of pleasure and enlightenment

    I don't Always agree with the TOS but abide with this ~ most of the time

    I guess because its free and mostly controversial ~ its a gas

    I don't really think it qualifies as a community.
