Why are there so few questions in Senior Citizens now?

This was once a wonderful spot for SCs to enjoy a bit of amusement amidst the mundane dreariness of everyday life

Update:

Have a fine evening

Update 2:

Someone here decided to move the Q to P & S

    I agree with you. I used to ask questions in senior citizens, but some fool kept moving them all over the place. So I quit. Now I post in other categories.

    I can remember when it was a friendly bunch, but gradually many of the participants became tired of the trolls and the children playing here, so they left.

    There are wronged, demented, trolls here.............who spend their lives moving questions to other categories.

    Take a look at the Italy boards sometime......in the Bolgona sub section.

    Some damn fool keeps moving all the R&S questions there.

    Not a single question is about Bologna.......it's all questions stolen from the R&S section.

    I have noticed the same thing in other categories as well...........

    someone in the Poltical section keeps moving questions, to the INDIA category.

    Yahoo needs to end this question moving business by total strangers. As usual, they failed to realize that TROLLS can be level 7 TOO. ...because they cheat and point game to get to level 7.

    they need to end ANONYMOUS, and stop this question moving nonsense .

    some probably left or have died.

    It is strange that the religious category has a swarm of new (and stupid) questions on it every day and that senior Citizens has little to none.

    It's not easy to come up with a true 'question' for this area. Most would be classed as chat which isn't what YA is about. There's no doubt that many people have migrated to places like Facebook, something I refuse to do!!

    Why not think up a few questions yourself for this place?

    It is largely due to the fact that the owners of Yahoo do not give a damn anymore.

    No moderators. Many users have left and those of us who hang around are usually

    found in the other categories just whiling away our break time.

    Edited to add:

    Quite a few questions are not straight forward Q&A. Some questions require people

    to use life experience in order to answer. When we do that, we are reported for

    "chatting". So fewer questions from or about Senior Citizens. Plus there are so many

    other reliable sources for answers to issues and queries.

    For Seniors who wish to chat online, there is a site run by Seniors for Seniors over

    50. Check out:
