shaneystar2 - your comment seems to suggest the minority are not allowed to voice their views. I think you'll find that everyone is entitled to their opinions/thoughts - true it might be that they could be phrased in a better way.
This can be a wonderful site, but it can also be quite infuriating. When you spend hours searching high and low and finally find an answer, the sense of achievement is brilliant. That soon turns to emmense frustration when someone, more lazy, less honest and with less ethics/morals simply asks the same question on here and gets given the answer without having to do any research. To compound that, they then add it to their answer sheet claiming the answer for themselves.
It's frustrating with any quiz, but more so with charity quizzes as by buying the quiz, you are already helping the charity - so where's the harm in leaving a blank space if you don't know an answer.
How will people ever improve their knowledge if they simply keep being given answers?

Depends on the individual. For example I have worked my way through the body quiz and now need just one. I can see people asking but it doesnt spoil the enjoyment I had of doing them myself. And if you havent finished it then you dont look.
I see people quoting that due to this site everyone is now getting them right
Not true - 1200 copies of the christmas dingbats were sold
only 130 returned and only 9 of those were all correct
Another theory shattered

it is not a case fo just saying "don't look" - the point is that lazy people are simply asking questions on here and freely being given the answers. For those who are prepared to put in the effort themselves, it is extremely frustrating.
And please don't say "if you can't beat them............". As has been said on other threads, some people are so lazy, they manage to ask question on here, yet with the time it takes them to sign in here, they could have found the answer for themselves on google (now there's a novel concept).

Same old same old ...needle got stuck again ?
You use your voice to berate people all the time .
Ban you ?
I would rather leave your sarcastic remarks for everyone else to see.
You and the other policeman are both the same ....never help anyone but just hover around upsetting others and making them feel small..
Pathetic ..when there are much worse things in life to contend with than someone giving away an answer to a bloomin' quiz. Haven't you got any other worries ?
If you don't like the site .....and we hear the fact that it should be shut down, from you ,ad nauseam ......then don't look at it .No one forces you to.
Address your complaints to the Editor and leave others alone to enjoy AB how they see fit.

I presume I am being referred to as the "other policeman" - typecasting or what!
What you fail to understand shaneystar2 is that you seem to want to be allowed your opinion, but when someone else has a different view, you don't like it.
We have to put up with your tirade - why can't we be allowed to voice out opinions as well? I think you'll find my opinion is put without being offensive or rude. It's just a shame you cannot even acknowledge my point of view.

I can see your point of view ....it just gets monotonous after a while though ....as I said ...same old same old .
According to you we are all cheats . Or in the case of the other one ....dimwits with not a brain between us .
Tirade ?
Why shouldn't I have a little tirade ....you post enough of 'em.
All your posts are tirades and just berate people for asking questions on here and make them feel uncomfortable in doing so .You never help anybody .
I have done lots of these charity quizzes .. I don't even bother to send most of them in ..they have had my money for their good cause and I have whiled away a dull day . Just a bit of fun. Hardly a matter of life or death.
As soon as anyone asks a question for these quizzes or whatever you pounce on them and harangue them ..It just seems to be your mission in life .
It's my Broadband shilling in my meter and I'll do what I think fit with it .If that means answering peoples questions you will have to live with it .
My opinion....
End of .

Thankyou for the acknowledgement. Unfortunately, you need to get your facts straight before launching on another tirade.
According to me, you are NOT the cheats - the cheats I refer to are the lazy people who can't be bothered to try and find an answer for themselves and merely ask for answers on here and then claim them for themsleves - if I was to comment on you for answering them, I would say more fool you (and yes I know that's the point of the site-but do at least try and see it from my point of view please).
As for criticising people for asking questions - then guilty as charged - but, eg., when the deadline for a quiz is more than six months away - why in the world do people need to ask for answers now? Also, just take a look at the number of questions someone like, eg. "bibster" has asked for just one quiz - what possible satisfaction do these people get by entering them if the majority of their answers have been given to them by other people?
I can understand why you don't seem to care that your actions ruin quizzes fi you do not enter them. It's also clear that you will carry on giving away answers - as is your prililege - but I will also carry on as is mine.
Truce - or do we go on?

Truce !
I can see your point as you see mine ...but ....when someone calls others dimwits and numbskulls with only half a brain and talks to people as if they are the beneath them then I see red . I am convinced that sodemall is Lady Knowyourplace of Cleverclogs Mansion in the Wold :)
At least you put forward a sensible argument ..they just make people feel inferior .
I use AB as a bit of fun .. Put it this way ...not being as young and fit as I used to be I just love trivia ,puzzles etc and hanging around here from time to time pitting my wits and exercising my grey matter . I really cannot see the harm in that .
Barber is obviously upset or they wouldn't have posted this.
There is enough hate and discontent in the world without someone having to feel guilty about asking a question about something so trivial as a quiz on a website .
No hard feelings ....we are all human . We all just have different priorities .Take care beth !
