yeah I don't think anyone planed to abandon yahoo answers we just kinda set this place up to discuss stuff longer than on yahoo answers.
like if someone asks something on yahoo and they never really get any answers they can ask here and since it's more a forum set up people will have more time to respond to it.
we can actually debate stuff here without text walls too lol and it's moderated so there will be no trolling or flaming out side of the war zone and whatever you read in their take with a grain of salt.

I am, I've been there for 6 years, force of habit now, for some reason the site has not been blocked by the filter at work, so I'm still able to check it.

I'm there a bit every day still. In the future I may or may not be. It kinda sucks there. But no plans to leave it any time soon.

I still go there. It don't seem like there were much there today to respond to, but it gets like that quite often.

I still go there. Not just for martial arts, but also for computer related issues. You know? We have trolls and idiots and fights. But at least people talk; in computer programming, it's like zombie apocolypse over there: no one talks, nothing friendly, lots of questions on homework. It's worse than the MA section.

Yes, because I don't ever go to the martial arts section. I'm just on this site because I was forced to join. I have no clue what's going on. O__O lol I might actually learn something about martial arts... but I doubt it.

I also go to the desktop sections, I'm a top contributor there too. I'm a PC enthusiast so I know the basics, which gives me some knowledge to advice people who are also building computers, and some troubleshooting.
That section is also very repetitive, "is this a good video card", "is this RAM compatible with my motherboard", "what is better, AMD or Intel" , but at least there are no trolls, just people with the same questions, there are lots of knowledgeable people, technicians, and people who know so much about computers I am often amazed.

still do, i kinda like to help beginners, i know it can be really annoying sometimes, but there are still good things.
maybe we should see if we can make the yahoo people, do some stuff like for example some stick threads, that answers the most repetitive questions, like, am i to old to do MA? and some other to tell people who not answer to (trolls).

I do because I've been doing it for so long that I get used to logging on there every once in a while. I just go on there to answer questions that seem to ask for help and aren't just the continuous flow of spammed martial arts questions.
