For people who used to be frequent Yahoo Answers users, what was your favorite time period?

For me, it was from 2007 until 2013. They changed everything after that. Did you used to hang out in the Polls and Surveys section as well?

@Matt85 Yes, that was the best time. When it went purple I was done. Also, they capped answers for level 7 users who earned the privilege of unlimited answers!

@Bri89 Yeah that was pants. Also the report monkeys took over at that time too.

@Matt85 Yes, and I remember that other users were able to move other people's questions to other categories that they thought the question was a better fit for.

@Bri89 lol yeah i think that got abused a bit

@Matt85 I know that it will never happen, but I'm surprised that no one has tried to create a site that mirrors Yahoo Answers given how popular it was. That site will always be a huge nostalgia point for me, and these days when it's remembered it's only remembered for the silly questions people asked with no regard for the community, and just the time period itself when it was popular.

@Bri89 someone made a subreddit (youre probably already aware) and it has the green banner and various other greeness lol. its quiet though right now.
