Why does yahoo answers seem so worthless?

I stopped using this website 3 months ago. Before that, I used it for about 2.5 years. I've asked countless questions about girls in high school and what I should do. I got so many answers, and tried following most of the advice. I will admit I was desperate back then. I wanted there to be a golden answer of some sort. 3 months ago, I came to the conclusion that it was all worthless. No advice helped at all, no one seemed to know what they were talking about. A colossal waste of time and effort. Why is this? I know that human knowledge can go so far, but it has to have some potential. Why? Thanks.

    Only an idiot thinks their problems in life can be fixed by the random advice of strangers on the internet. I can tell just from your silly tantrum here that you are are too immature and shallow to begin to comprehend what it takes to participate in a relationship so you just need to put that aside for a while. Like ten years. Go use your own brain. That's how life has worked since the dawn of time.

    Because it is a shell of its former self. It's been dying a slow death for a long time and community participation has dropped considerably over that time leaving a large percentage of trolls and scammers to abuse the site. Also, you get what you pay for. I doubt that there are or were any or many professional advisors answering your questions. They usually charge for their services.

    the golden answer is usually the answer you want to validate the action you intend to do

    you probably didn't receive any validation and you now deem it to be a worthless platform
