The quality of questions on the Answerbank

[puteridiot]

The quality of questions on this site as a whole has gone dramatically down hill. The number of pointless questions taking up space has tremendously increased. I find it very irritating. We have pointless questions about names, phones being lost and other ridiculously time consuming things. What has happened to the intellect on here? Can nobody post a question which involves a bit of thought?

[puteridiot]

No I don't come here often. Whiffey is a name I see on my screen, very much doubt that *you* know who they are either.

[rugeleyboy]

oh im to stupid to dare to know whiffster?

is that you ...crete?

[fine,thanks]

that liver contains natural vit 12 ? whiffey.

[fine,thanks]

ie B 12

[johnlambert]

pernicious anaemia is now treated with injections of b12 vitamins fine thanks

[fine,thanks]

yes no secret . ruge.

[fine,thanks]

john, im well aware of that fact, thanks

[whiffey]

fine,thanks my memory is dim, but I am sure B12 is the extrinsic factor whereas intrinsic factor is secreted by the stomach wall.

This question is veering off topic.

[fine,thanks]

indeed secreted by the gastric mucosa. sorry puter. no more A P .

Well I had lunch and came back to this, what a grumpy git you are pteridiot. If you dotn like them ignore them or actually give us a decent question. Your spelling mistake killed me though. You do a alot of kettle calling dont you. Ha ha

[joko]

on one hand i agree with puteridiot.

the amount of drivel on this site is increasing - pointless questions like, ''what's your favourite food?'', whilst technically a question, are a waste of time because who gives a toss what a stranger in cyberspaces favourite food is? what does a person do with this information once they have it? i cannot see the point in this...other than for a bit of a chat - which is not the aim of this site.

however,

on the other hand, i see no point in moaning about it - many people have before and nothing gets changed - this site is for everyone and people will use it in the way they want, turning it into yet another chat room.
so, just ignore the ones you don't like and respond to the ones you do.
simple

I am still quite new but I do see some questions that seem pointless. However, something like "what's your favourite food" to me is not. To my mind the poster wanted ideas for a varied diet or a change in their normal meals so it is easy to ask a simple question as to people's favourite food/meals. Some questions really do seem to be silly and I choose not to respond to them. I look at the question headings and if they seem silly then I don't read them - that saves fruetration and irritation.

[dot.hawkes]

Hi puteridiot, i am quite new too and i have to say i totally agree with your observations, it makes you wonder what we pay our suscriptions for, my direct debit is due out next week should i cancel it?

[rasmus]

Nice one dot>

[B00]

I would like to assure puteridiot that now that I've returned from my holidays, the quality of both questions and answers will improve immediately.

I would like to apologise to puteridiot and any other AB users who are equally aggrieved, please accept my sincere apologies that your internet experience these past two weeks has been disagreeable.

As a further token, I have taken the opportunity to issue you a �5.00 M&S voucher which I hope you will accept in the spirit in which it was offered.

[joko]

that is not why they ask - if it were they would put in food and drink.

and that was just an example - there are loads more

[taperface]

I'm new on here - so can I say hello to everyone? Afterwhich - may I suggest a sensible topic of conversation? What do you think to smoke detectors? This question almost begs for some wag to make a jest or two - but did you know that if you prod them, you risk the chance of americium 241 leaking out? It's radioactive, and I have several of the damned things dotted about my house. Oh well...guess i'll be glowing shortly.....

[theonlyone]

What a load of rubbish , Whiffy and his gibbon fetish is not a lot better , and that saying a lot , as that is all drivel as well .

[Kidd72]

taperface, sorry mate but your already looking a little green...
