Anyone else fed up with yet another change on answers?
I can't seem to see who asks questions. It shows me no user name at all, so unless I recognise an avatar I have no idea.
Seems like a pointless change again.
Anyone else having the same?
I know a place where ask and answer questions until your hearts content and there's no reporting.
Anyone can email me if they want the link.

I've been fed up with YA
for a looong time now, Alikat.
What's this other site you speak of?
My email is always open..

I've become numb about it, Alikat. Soon I might even come to like it, but then it will change again. BTW, I know who asks because I get my contacts Qs sent to my Yahoo email.

It takes a while for the Avatars and the user names to load, I've noticed.
I need everyone to know I'm Mr Right.

Yes, I'm hoping it's a glitch.
Keep clicking on questions from people I'd usually ignore.
I no likey... I no likey one little bit!

In Engineering there's a wise old saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I liked the old "green" answers far better than what they've got now.
I feel that my answers are my own small contribution to Yahoo's website and the fact that I now can't even review my own work is a daily frustration.
As far as I can tell, Yahoo is doing it's best to drive away the very people who have supported this site for years. Out with the old, in with the new.
And then there's the rampant malware infections this place apparently harbors...

The Flying Spaghetti Monster hates us because all we do is provoke each other so His Noodly Appendage sent down the evil broccoli eating designers to ruin Yahoo! Answers.
I am so sorry, my noodly appendage. I confessed it all already when I ate Spaghetti Bolognese today.

I think everyone should change their avatar and have the same as FIRENUTS.
- Anonymous7 years ago
Just scroll your mouse/pointer/arrow thing onto their avatar and a little window will pop up showing the user info including their name. Hope i helped. :)

Yeah, basically. What will they do next?
On second thought, I really don't want to know.
