What is the record number?

[anotheoldgit]

We have recently seen a question on this site receive 188 answers to date.

What is the all time record number of answers given to a particular question on Answerbank?

What was the subject of the question?

Why is it that the questions that get the most answers are those on Homosexuals or Foreigners/immigration etc?

No, a lot of racists and homophobes

[LoftyLottie2]

..... who seem to have no regard or respect for the fact that homosexuals or foreigners use t his site too.

[LoftyLottie2]

And, to answer your question, I believe that way back a question on Cremola foam had the the most answers.

This was just one of the questions on Cremola, I don't believe it's the longest one those.

(Strangely it had 188 answers too!)

[LoftyLottie2]

'of' those

[katerich48]

Why is it that straight away 2 people on here assume people on here are all racists and homophobes.. Does it not aoccur to either of you that it may be homosexuals asking questions... and immigrants asking advice?? Get a life you two...

[McMouse]

Whats worse..........being black or gay?

[McMouse]

Being gay. If you're black you don't have to tell you mum

This one is under 400 http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/ChatterBank/Que stion508976-20.html

however this thread implies that there used to be a question with 224 pages or reply (well over 4000 answers) but it seems to have been deleted. http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/ChatterBank/Que stion178708.html

[LoftyLottie2]

Where has anyone said that it's only racists or homophobes that answer questions on this site?

Read aog's last paragraph properly and then read the question he refers too before you jump to conclusions.

Here it is:

Surely my first reply on here makes it very clear that I think that foreigners and homosexuals use this site?

[LoftyLottie2]

[DrFilth]

Stevie Wonder was once asked "do you have any regrets that you were blind soon after your birth"

His answer was "Eh! no, it could have been worse, I could have been born black"

Obviously not quite as psuedo intelligent as you .. I may be stupid but looking at the above you are agreeing with Gromits comments when he says there are a lot of blah blah blahs on here by answering the way you have..

[Quinlad]

There one in R&S which as about 2,400 but it's more of a chatroom than a dedicated thread.

[LoftyLottie2]

If you knew Gromit, then you would understand his answer, and what I added, Katerich. Gromit respects everybody, creed colour, sexual preference, etc. etc. and is well respect on AB for this reason. And it is the racists and homophobes who seem to take over on the threads such as indicated in aog's question. I hope this makes it clearer to you.

Of course, we both know there AB has a diversity of people. You need to be a bit more perceptive and understand what people are actually saying before you angrilly and rudely jump in. I have a life thank you, especially for a pseudo intelligent person. And 'Get a Life' is such a worn out phrase.

Actually Dr Filth, I can only speak from what I have seen of Gromit, but he isn't disrepectful or rude to Homophobes or racists. It may be obvious from his comments that he doesn't agree with them, but isn't disrespectful or rude. And his remark was lighthearted and quite tongue in cheek anyway - not a statement of fact.

Thanks for the grammar lesson. ;o)

[Gromit]

DrFilth

I obviously do not agree with racists and homophobes, but I usually try to be patient with them and try not to disrespect them. I will argue they are wrong, but not in an abusive way.

Thanks LoftyLottie2 for your kind comments.
