Is anyone else annoyed with extremely long 'Yahoo Answers' questions?

Question

that's my question

Answer 1

havent come accross any LONG ones. it troublesome, yes. 2 pts

Answer 2

No, not at all

Answer 3

well it all depends on what the question is i meen dont u think that if it was an importent question that u would want to know a full detailed so you would know what to answer i meen like seriusly speaking now what if it was a life and death question "should i commit suicide?" now the shortest answer would be no but if all u said was no and no reason who the h**l would listen to that i meen i am not suidal but if u answered that to me i would jump with the computer and screen in my hands (or to make it less heavy i would print out that answer and jump outy with the paper and maybe the printer as well) now if u gave me a long answer that went on for ever then i would i jumpo out b4 finishing readding it so like i said it really does depend on the question abviosly so again now the longer the question the better u can answer  GREAT QUESTION THOUGH!!

Answer 4

Some of them I am annoyed with. I have to admit I'm weary of the teenage girls and their boyfriend/girlfriend problems. They have to tell every little detail. It gets to the point of where it's worse than a really bad soap opera. So, I now just avoid them. I know they're looking for answers but I wish they'd get to the point quicker!

Answer 5

Short or long,... I don't care, as long as they have some substance to them.

Answer 6

Ok you would soooooo hate me! I guess I'm long winded. If I ask a question, especially an opinion based one, I feel the need to share my opinion first. You find that annoying? yeah, I guess I can see your point. *hangs head* Ok....I'll do better. *kicks rock with big toe*

Answer 7

No.  In order to find out knowledge one must ask a question.  Some questions a merely not as easily described in one or two sentences and thus, the person inquiring may feel the need to elaborate enough to ensure that the person who might respond to their question understands what he/she is askiing and can make a valid response.

Answer 8

Sometimes I have a short attention span. I kinda scan through answers with more that 5 sentences. Some people give answers with 5 paragraphs! I don't really mind, but if it is just "cut and pasted", then I do mind because I would have just gone to a website if that's what I wanted to read. I come here for opinions, not facts. Ok, well sometimes I want facts. Hey, are you still reading this?

Answer 9

The long answers aren't that bad if they explain in detail. Whats is annoying are the stupid answers or ignorant comments that don't even pertain to the questions that some people ( and I use the term loosely ) write in just to get a couple points.

Answer 10

no... the more details, the more likely i can answer the question accurately

Answer 11

Dont be so judgmental!  Learn to be more accepting to everyone and everything.  If not, life will do it to you anyway.  You have a long life of being annoyed ahead of you.  Calm down and relax.  Besides it nice for anyone to bother to be helpful in the first place.

Answer 12

NO, JUST THE QUESTIONS THAT MAKE NO SENSE.

Answer 13

yes.  'well, sometimes you need more info...' whatever.  sometimes too much info is a bad thing.  take for example, doctors diagnosing.  they only need key health symptoms.

Answer 14

yes, especially when its from a web page and they can just put the web page in the sources.

although if its asking for an explanation of a math problem or something, its ok.

Answer 15

I rarely read long questions. Especially if they seem to be from a kid who thinks we are really, really interested in their social life and their travails with their friends or boyfriends. The worst part is that the spelling is horrible, there are not punctuation marks or capital letters, so it's just one big ramble. I don't think those kids are interested in an answer, they want to express their angst or engage in a chat.

Answer 16

No, but I am tired of the stupid answers! :-)
