My answers support Susan G. Komen for the Cure® What's this?

My guess is, they didn't like:
1) Some of the poll questions.
2) The "Do I look *blank*? or "Am I *blank* questions that people seem to cant stop asking.
3) And that some people answers and questions sometimes get deleted even though there wasnt anything wrong with them.
._. Tell me if I'm incorrect or missed something. Though, I'm not leaving ...since I kinda do like helping people..

I have vanished and re-appeared about six times in my 2 years here, so I think it's not a permanent thing

I am considering leaving as well and most likely will. The site seems to have changed and with poll questions being allowed many questions become who is better Beiber or so and so. I find that the personal issues amongst the users has increased noticeably as well.

I would stay but my feelings towards the site have changed. I am going to become very busy in the upcoming months and ask will become a distraction and that is something that I have to take into consideration.

I know I'm not leaving because I want to help people, and answer questions idk why everyone is leaving! I guess it's just socially related and also the useless questions people are asking nowadays.

Idk, why don't you ask them, not us? How are we supposed to know? Maybe they got bored! I left this site for a few months because it got boring. Yahoo Answers is much better

HotChele, I apologize to those who follow me for this answer coming out so harshly & I hope I don't lose anyone, but I just feel strongly about it. I really see no reason to be so sharp with Otter. Sometimes I wonder why people continue to come to us when "I" even have a hard time with some of the answers that are given to people who have true legitimate questions. Truly, (1) how is Otter supposed to "ask them"? Duh. And the "How are we supposed to know" is just uncalled for, I am a very peace-loving person; however, when I get on here (a site to "help" people) and see answers like yours and then, to boot (2) you say you "left this site for a few months because it got boring" makes it sound like you came back because you missed it. If Yahoo Answers is better, GO THERE, or will they not let you answer? This is SO not me to act this way, but as others say they've seen Ask change because of the questions and the Mods, I've seen it change because of the non-caring answers being allowed.

Am I pretty ?

I would like to see this site split into two different sites. One site for 10-18 year olds and one site for 19 years old and above. The tweens and teens get tired of looking at questions of a more adult nature and the more mature users are REALLY getting tired of the teeny bopper questions, as nerual16 said in her answer.

Because the teens with no brains are asking questions about pregnancy and being pretty and all of the older folks and teens with their heads screwed on straight are sick of it.

Waayyyyy to much filtering!! I just responded to 3 comments and they didn't post because apparently ask didn't approve of my responses. Sooo, I wasted time with what I thought were intelligent response considering the topics but, Ask didn't. Toooo controlled. I love the format but wish it wasn't so babysat...

Dear Otter, I want to answer your question with the last part of a comment I made to HotChelleRae (which is normally not like me to do unless I feel someone is being hateful to an "asker" and then my "feathers get a bit ruffled." My answer: I've seen it change because of the non-caring answers being allowed. But I didn't know people were "leaving." I LOVE Ask.com and we've still got a lot of good people on here. So you just keep coming with those questions, honey, and we'll see if we can help. God Bless!
