Question

Do you think these new "answer" boards are a good substitution for the old Yahoo message boards?

Answer 1

No. It's like kissing your sister. d**n Al Gore for teasing us then taking it away.

Answer 2

No. These boards could be useful for answering questions so I suppose they serve a purpose. So the old boards were out of control? So what? They were fun and stupid like a dumb party. As long as everyone understood it wasn't real it was OK. As long as the party didn't spill into the streets and hurt anyone what's the problem?

Answer 3

There is no doubt the new "answer" boards are better than the old message boards.  It seems the old boards were used primarily by malcontents who hated everyone and everything.  People did not even stick to the question at hand and would bring up all sorts of other things.  These new boards are much appreciated by this user.

Answer 4

No.  There's no way to respond to other responders.  The thread is very linear and isn't suited for creating new threads.

Answer 5

No doubt it was over the top at times yet it had its moments.  Reading the angst & perversion of some of those people was at times amusing thouugh I do hope they've found help or at least a new home.  One could only wonder if this was what america had truly become.

Answer 6

This is an experiment.

The lone lawyer thing, suing Yahoo!

I wish I could see a press release

about it.

Not the message from the General Manager.

Answer 7

I don't even bother with them it's Yahoo's way of censoring free speech.
