I don't want to say scam, however there is possibility...?

sure thats possible

but why would they bother

rubbish answers are still absolutely clear to most people even if they have been ranked "best answer"

Any top answerer over 30% best answers is a scam.

I used to be #7 TOP ANSWERER in philosophy with a 9% BA rate. Me and Don were the only legit ones then. Now Don (who used to have 24% until he became #1,? and Nameless One are the only legit Top Answerers.

The evil genious thinks that way . and want's to conquer the earth . the rest of us rely on superman , he can leap buildings with a single bound he can bend steel bars with his bare hands , he's faster then a locomotive . bullets bounce off his cheast , but he comes off as a bumbling clutz who would never rob a bank though it would be a snap . he works as a mild mannered news paper reporter . and is polite and helpfull , he'd never do anything like that , it's benieth him .

Some people cheat, for sure. I was reading Yahoo's rules recently and it seems to me they identify that and prohibit it - but in my experience, Yahoo doesn't give a flick of the fingertips what happens in YA.

Wow, I never even thought about that. I would like to think people are making better use of their time than rating themselves best :)

dvd, we already know that. Isn't it obvious? We all know who gives consistently good answers. Some of those people with ridiculously high scores have never made a name for themselves with their replies. The proof is in the pudding sweetie.

There's no doubt in my mind that there are many ppl w/ multiple accts giving themselves best answer.

No mystery, it probably happens all the time.
