Yahoo answer new format is confusing, so why are they not listening?
From what I've read, most readers, questioners and those giving answers and of course a few goof balls, hate the new format for yahoo answers - so why aren't they listening to us? They are also in the process of changing their games rooms - as a kid I grew up on some of yahoo chat rooms - my friends and associates would hang out in chat rooms until it got creepy and filled with old man pretending to kids and old hags pretending to be teens - so much for fun - and I understand some people actually pay to do this!
NOT I - thank you Yahoo - I need a push off the computer and back into the real world after work and family gatherings - now I can get off my behind or even finish some publications that I avoided on Sunday playing spades - and goofing off on yahoo answers - you have saved my dignity and pride and perhaps a few pounds of Doritos from entering my body.

It's the harsh reality that they don't have to listen to us, nor do they give a damn about the users either. So, with that wonderful combination established, they will do whatever ridiculous thing that their minds can think up of to squeeze every last cent out of this website and into their greedy wallets.
The purple format requires so many more pointless clicks --- ever noticed that "Show more" button, or how much of a pain it is to get between categories? Every time we click on something here, Yahoo probably gets a few cents from advertisers for the ads that are on the page.
The chatrooms.. I'll have to say that they are disturbing and I don't miss them, but we can all have our own opinions.
But as for your last paragraph, you're right! Get of this accursed website, because every click = money for them! Do something worthwhile. :)
