Why have I stopped getting answers in Yedda?

Why have I stopped getting answers in Yedda?

I got answers for my first couple of questions, then I got enthusiastic and started asking a lot, and now I seem hardly to get any answers, and those I get are not very good, not from someone who really knows the domain I am asking about better than me. Am I doing something wrong? Have I set my expectations too high? Is it a type of temporary recession in answers that everyone are experiencing or is it only me?

Love is the battery of life....

Hi Gilad,


I read all the question you posted.  I read it objectively (as an outsider) and I think I have an answer: The questions you post are very specific & closed question (e.g: מ.ק 22, or service on the border).....   I am sure that if you post Open questions and more general you'll get much more answers.  Lake of answers is defenately not intended personally against you.  I find your questions very intelligent.  I believe you are a smart sensitive guy.
I wish you the best of luck.

It seems what you decsribe is a frustrating experience, not to mention a disappointing one, where you expected better answers than those you've received. It can be annoying, but let me assure you it is not intentional, either at you or as a regular pratcice.

Some questions just appear as too difficult to answer, while other get several responses. I invite you to remain a member ofn the Yedda community. This community grows everyday, and there might still be someone out there who can answer your question.

On a more practical note, you might want to consoder editing the topics you added to your question. Maybe we can invite somebody else to answer your question...

Thanks, I never really considered the option of this being personal, and I am too excited (to use the American lingo) of the ability to ask and get specific answers to be frustrated when I don't get them.

I think the tagging is a mechanism that sucks, but being very aware of its many pit holes (e.g. using different form for a term thus not answering the search criteria), I believe I did tag correctly.

My thoughts were that I either write too specific or not clear enough questions, or that after the initial hype and public relation with the introduction of Yedda, there is now a recession in the number of people actively searching in it (BTW, the speller is a great feature, but Yedda should be in your dictionary). Anyway, I really like your tool, find it useful and recommend it to others.
