Is There Really Any Point To This Site Any Longer. Too Many Changes And Not One Of Them Useful. Can't Even Delete Your Own Questions Now?!?

Agree Or Disagree And What If Anything Should Be Done To Change It?!

    I don't see much of a point in it any longer, it ain't what it used to be. Some of the changes are ok, but for most of them, I honestly can't see what the point of them are. I don't need to see a contact rating every answer they got on their question on my feed. What is the point in it?!

    Yahoo need to put on one of their 'special feature questions'' - and ask the users, the people that actually use the site, what do they need to do to improve the site.

    They need to change the way we see contacts questions, it was sooo much easier on the green. One click and I could see the list of my contacts questions, now you need to click a million times(slight exaggeration..lol) to find a question from a contact. I don't want to get questions sent to my inbox. Maybe that's why their mail service is a mess too, many people opted to get qs sent to their mail, because they found it difficult to find qs from contacts. I also don't want to go to each contacts profile to see if they've asked qs. It would be better if we got some sort of a notification that someone has commented on one of our answers, someone left a comment on one of my answers and it was a shitty, and I replied to it. Don't know if he ever replied back though, I was in the humour for having a slagging match with a twit.

    It's all about the clicks($) click this, click that..click..to get anywhere on this poxed up site..

    Anyway, bring back the green, I'm done complaining for the day..lol

    A lot of users have left this site for various reasons. As far as being unable to delete your questions, that was changed because users complained that it wasn't right for the asker to be able to delete their answers along with the questions. That makes sense, the asker owns the question but not the answers.
