Yahoo needs to quit changing the damn email layouts. I was content with what it was before. -- Submitted By: (Jp) on October 15, 2012, 9:02 pm - (2 votes)

Easiest way to lose faith in humanity is reading the comments section. -- Submitted By: (kingbk) on October 12, 2012, 6:29 pm - (3 votes)

Reading the comment section of Yahoo articles is like reading the comment section of music/song-lyric videos on Youtube. Both are a cesspool of ignorance and hate. -- Submitted By: (cartooner) on October 11, 2012, 2:11 am - (3 votes)

Now i know many of the news articles, you lose faith in humanity when you look at the comments section, but lately... it seems like even some of the articles where the majority of the people should form sensible opinions now are being trolled. It's quite sad really -- Submitted By: (PYLrulz) on September 12, 2012, 12:55 pm - (0 votes)

@Locotus:
Weird, considering that most of the comments I see on Yahoo are right-wing comments. -- Submitted By: (cartooner) on July 28, 2012, 9:08 pm - (1 votes)

Any time anyone makes a conservative/right wing comment, it gets deleted. Way to be inclusive and fight censorship, liberals! -- Submitted By: (Locutus) on July 27, 2012, 2:59 pm - (0 votes)

I agree Robert. One look at some of the posts on the news articles, and you lose all faith in humanity -- Submitted By: (PYLrulz) on August 11, 2011, 5:08 pm - (2 votes)

Many comments boards seem to have been overrun by psychopaths. It's like they made hundreds of Timothy McVeigh clones and they all made Yahoo accounts. I've seen some truly evil comments, from mocking innocent people's deaths, to insulting the mourning family members of the deceased. It makes you wonder why our tax dollars are providing internet access to psych wards. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on August 11, 2011, 2:37 pm - (2 votes)

I know what you mean Robert. God forbid you spell a word wrong or have a slight bad grammar in your comment. They attack you like a bunch of piranas. -- Submitted By: (SSM) on January 23, 2011, 12:47 am - (1 votes)

God help you if you post on a comment on a topic and there are a team of cyberbully trolls who don't agree with you. They'll submit it as spam. If the administrators agree with them (or otherwise have some beef against you), you'll get slapped with restrictions, in the form of posting limits, among others. It happens all the time to a friend of mine...even though they stayed on topic and DIDN'T spam the messageboards! This is one reason I RARELY post comments on Yahoo. Luckily, no one's reported me as spam, but still. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on January 6, 2011, 1:38 pm - (2 votes)

The only time I use Yahoo is when I check my e-mail. I don't like the fact they ruined Netdisaster (geez, can't they take a joke?). -- Submitted By: (BigAl) on October 22, 2010, 8:00 am - (0 votes)

Yahoo was an important site my family and I visited for searching back in the 90s, but when the page became cluttered with embarassing news reports and useless features, combined with my love for all things Google, I've thrown in the towel for Yahoo! -- Submitted By: (SVN) on January 10, 2010, 8:52 pm - (2 votes)

Yahoo used to be relatively cool, back in the mid-1990s. It seems odd now but there were really just a few thousand websites back then, and Yahoo was useful since it was a list of basically all the ones worth visiting. Lots of other sites tried to do this (in fact, the 'ya' in 'yahoo' stands for 'yet another') but Yahoo was the best.
Of course that's now an impossible and irrelevant thing to do, but there was a point, long ago, where Yahoo was pretty darned useful. I think the point where the site boned the fish was with those "pop under" ads circa 2001. That was the moment where they said 'We don't respect our customers, we're going to get a nickel out of you any way we can, too bad if you don't like it'. Not surprisingly, Google surged ahead around this time. -- Submitted By: (doctor_awesome) on November 20, 2009, 12:03 pm - (2 votes)
