Answer 1

i bet people would not say half the things they do to people in real-life, and they think they can say mean things because no one will know who they are. they are probably looking for an easy 2 points as well.

Answer 2

I had a lady last night insult my mothering because I was excited about my baby's 1st Halloween.  

I think people are mean on here because it's their chance to be mean without being face to face....they take out their daily aggressions on yahoo Answers..  A$$holes.

Answer 3

Aww don't worry.. There really isn't any point in getting upset over what loosers say over the internet. Luckily, I haven't really EVER met a person on here who was mean or rude til the point where it annoyed me (i've been on a little more than a year).. And some people answer sarcastically or could just be in a bad mood, so if you email them occasionally you may get back a sorry/didn't mean to hurt your feelings

Believe me though, for all those mean people you will meet a LOT of nice people.. My contacts list is full with 200 people, and my fans list is overflowing. So if you do make some enemies, also a lot of friends, and you look cute so that probably wont be a problem. Honestly, this is a dorky thing to say but if I knew some of my contacts in real life they'd be one of my best friends. A lot of people on here I talk to a few hours a night every night over this whole summer (Messenger/AIM or over the phone/txting) which is probably more than I talk to my own girlfriend.

So, give it another chance! lemme know if people are still bugging you

Answer 4

I agree if you don't like something and they say in the title to stay out of it people just can't find themselves to move on to another question.

Just like in youtube i've seen a lot of hater videos all saying fans stay out. but some fans just can't. Sometimes when you say don't they will do it no matter what.  

Answer 5

'scuse me but reread your own "question" seems you threw a few insults there yourself.  

Yes there are some ppl who take really low cheap shots but not everyone does.   In life off net there are both kinds of people too.   i think the anonymous nature  of the net may make some worse tho.    

Answer 6

I know EXACTLY what you mean and i've been on here for literally 30 minutes.

I think some people just get a thrill of being mean, and they know that they will never get found out or harrassed about it as they can hide behind a computer screen.

Other people stupidly just don't understand why people might want to ask a certain question.

Really, the best thing is just to ignore it, they're g**s :)

Answer 7

I agree , its really anoying , but even if it is still a stupid questions dosnt give them the right to be mean to us , I think you shuld be able to report them and get them suspended for a week of two ,

Some of the questions may be stupid but even if they are , this person still needs an answer to the question they asked and all they are getting back in return is some randomers being stupid and unfair with us , Nice question , thank you

Answer 11

Ha I just joined a few weeks ago and I feel the same. It sucks. But I just ignore them and find out the answers I really do need to find out and just ignore those g*y ones.

Answer 12

i know what u are talking about ppl can be so mean but not all i am good and i do help in the best way i can

Answer 13

I completely agree with you. I think they find some sick joy in hurting peoples feelings or they THINK it makes them look cool. It doesn't. It just makes them look plain mean. Yahoo answers is supposed to be a site where people can just ask questions and get a simple answers, but it looks like people find it more of an opportunity for them to diss someone without have to say it directly to their face. Remember, there many idots out there who are just looking to start trouble but all we can do is learn to ignore them.

Answer 14

Well, sometimes people will just answer because they wanna get their 2 points (if you notices, there are a lot of people who just answer with a "idk" or "lol" or something equally pointless). Other times, they just wanna let you know that your question is stupid to them. They shouldn't bother, but again, they get 2 points so if you don't like it they don't care. It's "too bad" and "I have my 2 points and you get annoyed, but I couldn't care less because I keep my points hahahahaha" People are stupid. There are other many reasons people do that, but I agree than they shouldn't bother answering if they'll be mean to you. There are a lot of people here who will ask questions to see the answers, not because they wanna know, and some people can't stand a stupid question because sometimes it has a simple answer and MANY times, the question is for others to do searches for them. Very simple tasks that the asker can do themselves but they want us to search AND give them the answer they need for homework or whatever. It gets annoying when people do that and many others just don't care that you don't like an answer because they're not getting reported, their answer doesn't get deleted and they don't lose points. Also, there are many who already have immunity with the people behind this site anyway.

Next time, use the report button. It's a lot of drama, but you'll have immunity, and the people behind yahoo will trust you more than they trust the others. Try not think get upset over fools. Just skip their answer and find a good one. Hard, but you'll get used to it.  

Answer 15

this questions only gonna get you more a*****e answers.

just warning ya.

and its because everybody feels big and tough when they are behind a computer screen and feel the need to act it.

Answer 16

Sometimes people ask stupid questions so in return get a stupid answer.

Answer 17

57 answers in 3 days?  You may not be giving each question sufficient thought and consideration.   What is your least favorite response of which you are complaining?

Answer 18

Generally it comes from people who have no self-confidence and/or feel powerless in their lives, so mocking others makes them feel a little bit better for a very short time.  Classic bully mentality.  Pretty sad, when you think about it.

Answer 19

Because it is easy to be tough on the internet.

Answer 20

nah, youll have that anywhere. lighten up, learn to laugh (and laugh at yourself) you'll get some good answers, some idiots, some that make you think in a new perspective, and some that make you laugh (my favorite) Go with the flow

Answer 21

most of them are a** holes but ignore it people are stupid
