Who else is ticked at people who leave short, idiotic answers just for points???

Question

They ought to be forbidden to answer anything else.

Answer 1

Moi! And I know that was a short answer, too, so I'm writing less sentence to make it longer!

Answer 2

Me  

Answer 3

Me and a half.

Answer 4

I don't care. They're sometimes funny!

Answer 5

I do, I do! Makes me crazy. This site is for helping others and getting help from others, so silly, yes and no, why cant they tell us why they feel the way they do about their answer, and not just yes or no so that they get their points. Grr, ticks me off!

Answer 6

me

Answer 7

thank god for the thumbs down..so i don't even have to look at their stupidity..

Answer 8

Yes! Why waste our time writing questions when we are looking for opinions or facts to back  up our question? If they are looking for points that really don't mean anything to anyone but themselves then vote on everything it is a lot easier.  

Answer 9

Actually, leaving answers that don't really attempt to answer the question is against the community guidelines.  The IDK, LOL, HAHAHA, etc. put in just to get points is reportable.  I know, I was reported once, so never again.

Answer 10

If someone gives an answer that doesn't make sense, etc just for the points obviously doesn't care about what people think. They are just selfish.

There should be a setting of a minimum amount of words/letters.

Answer 11

sarcastic answers make me laugh but yeah i agree

when its things like 'no'

its just plain annoying

Answer 12

Yes, that is pretty annoying. But this is a short answer to a point blank question. I also get annoyed to questions that either have no real question or they go on and on and on for what seems like 20 million pages. :-) Get to the point already. Agreed?

Answer 13

I am

Answer 14

Anyways......

Answer 15

They are better when longer answers are left, but remember, there is freedom of speech, so you can't ban one for answering something sgort anymore than you can ban one for leave long-winded ones, such as the aforementioned!

Answer 16

Gahh, YES!

What I'm also sick of is people answering "I don't know" and things like that.  

Answer 17

I think that people should only answer a question they know.  That is what i do the only reason why i would answer a question with one word is because the answer is a one word answer. like yes or no
