Why are so many Yahoo answers questions so poorly constructed?

A statement with a question mark tacked on at the end does not a question make.

    A lot of new users do not read the guidelines so do not know that questions must be a question not a statement so post statements. If they don't add a ? yahoo places it there anyway.

    It is common with new users and kids using their phones not computers.

    There is a character limit for the question so it could be they ran out of room and posted the rest in details.

    Construction of statements that are questions that are actually statements with ?s should be considered? That's the statement, in question of questioning of statements?
