So Astronomy & Space has "gone dark" again? Will this question revive it?

    Yahoo as a whole has gone down the tubes since Verizon Wireless took it over

    Look at Yahoo Messenger

    Questions are disappearing from the feed in about 3 hours, and sometimes they ALL get wiped, leaving only 6 day and older questions until someone asks again, or moves their question back and forth.

    Yahoo please fix this.

    *edit* yay, its been fixed!

    It's not the lack of effort... it's the lack of Yahoo maintenance...

    The Top Scorer in this category, the late Geoff, was the best person anywhere at Yahoo Answers. He really gave great equipment advice. Nyx and Starrysky are great answerers too for amateur astronomy questions. The people here are very good, it's just that Yahoo is a mess.

    NO. Yahoo answers is still broken. New questions don't last very long and are deleted.

    Doubt it. The typical pattern when this is going on is for new questions to disappear within a few hours.

    The glitch has been back for a month or so and it is system wide.

    All that's really left of Y!A is political vitriol. I go elsewhere for answers.

  • 3 years ago

    I've gotten pretty fed up with Y!A in general lately and looked for other forums where I can ask answer questions. I don't come in here that often anymore.

    Specifically, I'm fed up with the fact that they only show a couple of questions a day when you know there are many more than that. And that they have no apparent interest in fixing it. I estimate we're seeing less than 5% of the questions being asked.
