Are you as surprised that Yahoo Answers lasted this long. Logging now after being on Quora for years, I see my 300,000+ points still here. ?

It seems the side has descended into a pit of trolls by the early 2010s. Though Quora is rapidly going that ways as well. 

It seemed that Cars and Transportation was the last half way respectable section and that was still had too many of questions that google maps cold have answered better. 

Politics was a total mess with anyone not totally alt right getting flames. I can imagine what he has been like in these Potus45 years and after.

I am going to take a browse around then I will be saying goodbye to what was my biggest waste of time in the 2000s.  That I got over 300,000 points and often got listed among the top 10 people providing answers and getting best answer so often says something about how much time I dedicated providing polite and as accurate as possible answers I could.

Bye
