Why are Pool, Billiard, and Snooker questions repeated so often?

Question

In the short time I've been a part of Y!A, I've seen the same, or slightly reworded Snooker, Billiard, and Pool questions re-posted within a day or two of the initial questions asked and answered. They are reused to create 'new' questions that are merely copied questions and answers that were initially posted by others' answers.

Why are people doing this (usually the same 2 or 3 people)?

Why are people 'hustling' questions and answers in this category?

Answer 1

No im just trying to remember how i answered this one the last time Ha Ha

I dont think anyone ever reads resolved questions they just keep asking  

Answer 2

I can't speak for those few but, I can assure you it's an ongoing problem throughout the whole y/a community. I've seen the same "Lame" questions asked so many different ways it's sickening. I browse all over the place and sometimes you have to remember that there's all ages of people here and you have some very educated people and those that think they're no it alls. Anyway, I was schooled some time ago that the search button is there for a reason but, others haven't figured it out yet. LOL You basically place your question or question of interest and it'll take you right there to that question or a similar one so, you'll know if your question has been asked directly or similar. That's helped me out alot. Some people think they're as slick here as they're with pool playing. LOL you just happened to call them on it. Good for you! take care and have a good one!

Answer 3

You can "bank" on this that there a lot of amateurs that get on this section that do now really know the game. Also, how is it that someone can picture the shot or stroke while some one else can't come close....sort'a like all of these repeated answers/questions.  They don't understand the game and some one might just shed a better light/answer to the questions...I don't think someone is just "hustling" points for their totals....heck I don't know!....give me my points!!

Answer 4

I have noticed several questions getting repeated but that is in all the sections on Yahoo but it still can be annoying. I see the do u win or lose if you make the cue ball and make the 8 ball on the same shot a million times it seems. Most of the question are about the rules and what stick to buy. Every now and than I see a new fresh question and I like to see more of those
