There are many other Q & A sites, but none quite like Fluther.

@Saturated_Brain
Hello SB. Airow should be back up but in a deterrent name, but who’s to say it will be any good?

@augustlan
I’m not liking Fluther so rather than annoying you I’ll go to somewhere I like.

@Joinm I hope you find an online community that suits you. Best wishes.

I’m always on the look out for good Q and A sites. Not because I want to leave Fluther just because I like asking and answering questions and the more places I have to do that the better. I used to be on wis.dm before it shut down and also Bolt years ago when they had tagbooks before they shut down and then reopened without tagbooks :(

The collective is unique.

@Joinm What, specifically, is it that you don’t like? I hope that you find it if you have not found it here. Have you given this a long enough trial?

Too late. Joinm no longer exists as a member…

Yahoo has one. That was the first one I found and it’s OK!

@Saturated_Brain: Well that was pointless.

@cprevite Hmm… Maybe he/she’s still lurking around.. I may have been too quick in passing judgment. Let’s not lose hope!

Oh yah, Yahoo Answers is always good for a laugh.

I’m new here, but I think this is leaps and bounds above Yahoo’s format. It’s just distracting. But I guess it’s not for everyone.

Even with the original asker gone, this question still has value for future inquiring minds.
Fluther is the only one I have found that successfully combines the Q & A format with a social networking format, within the guidelines that are given.

I tried others, some don’t have enough moderation, some don’t even follow their own guidelines, are nothing more than chat rooms, but most are strictly Q & A, with very little feedback.

I miss the science questions from wis.dm and the wonderful debates we had. There are many very nice people who are part of the Fluther community. Other sites? I tried Yahoo once and was disappointed.

Psh…this is the only good one. Yahoo! Answers sucks.
