Do UK & Ireland people not ask enough questions?
I´m English and I thought it would be more relevant to click onto UK and Ireland but it says after many questions " This was first asked on Answers US" or another country where they may speak English. If I look at Answers US will I find questions from England? Will I find Answers US with your new system?

I know, i've tried to get back but it seems hell bent on directing me onto the main english speaking questions. Personally, i would not be surprised as the same people dominated the top cons for ages without rarely any signs of them actually being active. The whole site winds me up at the moment and this is just another nail in the coffin i would leave now but for the email which actually works if you change it to basic setting!!

The US site has by far the most users, so it is likely you will see most of the questions coming from there.
There are 9 English language Y!A sites, they are tied together, so all of their Q&A are visible to each of the other sites. You can switch to any of the sites either by clicking the appropriate flag at the bottom of the page (old green format) or click on "International" at the bottom of the menu on the left (new purple format) and select a country to switch.
One can choose to view only questions asked on a particular site. To do that look to the right of the "Open" "In Voting" "Resolved" tabs or bar for a menu where you can select all English questions or just those asked on the same site you are on.
