Yahoo, why did you change the way answers was.?

Why did yahoo change answers. It is to hard to answer questions now and you don't see your favorites on here any more.

Why yahoo, why?

    They won't tell you. You're asking other users, not Y!A staff.

    There are two threads about the new format on the Suggestion Board:

    http://suggestions.yahoo.com/?prop=answers

    They are pinned, and you can comment on them, but many users have already been there.

    You can revert back to the old format, for now, by clicking http://ca.answers.yahoo.com/

    Some users say the change was to make Y!A more like social networking sites or to make it look like other yahoo sites.

    I hate the new format too.

    I had people on my favourites that answered the type of questions I liked answering too.

    So they were flagged for me and I didn't miss them as easily.

    It also saved me looking through mountains of stupid questions.

    I also hate that you can answer a question first, but the order then changes and people that just copy your answer end up ahead of you and it looks like you copied them.

    PS -

    How is Pamela a troll??

    She is a level 7 and has been answering questions openly and legitimately on here for years.
