Richard D asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 1 decade ago

Are there too many whiners on Yahoo answers?

Examples: Someone with a credit score of 500 asks why they can’t get a loan. I answer that it takes a lot of work and screw-ups to get a score that low and that no one will touch him. He files a complaint and I lose 10 points appealing the bizarre removal on the answer (It did not violate any Yahoo Answers policy.) FYI, 1% of the country has a score that low. So, yes, it does take a lot of work to achieve a 500. I used the word “entitlement” in an answer. Another complaint. So it appears that Yahoo sensors honesty. Comments?

    There are too many whiners in the world!! You're right, that's a lousy credit score but we're not allowed to tell the truth here if it hurts some cry baby's feelings. We get reported and penalized for being honest.

    Unfortunately, Yahoo doesn't care what you or I think and will continue to run this place like an unsupervised children's playground and not an actual resource for knowledge.

    No. There are not enuf. Whiners have their place on Yahoo, too. They are frequently underrepresented in many Topics.
