Here are a few of the friendly faces behind these blog posts:
This California native was a reporter in a previous life and joined the Answers team in 2009. In addition to being our social media manger, Katie keeps an eye on Answers.com’s homepage content and most popular questions. As a result, she is a font of trivial knowledge. One day, she’s sure the answer to How many packets of Kool-Aid would it take to fill the ocean? will come in handy. Katie loves Andy Samberg, French fries and road trips in her Subaru.

When she is not busy meddling about in the Answers.com community (when is that again?), Crystal enjoys hanging out via chat and e-mail with its fantabulous crew of volunteer Supervisors. Living a tad off the beaten path (deep woods), she loves a fine cup of coffee, exploring the depths of the human psyche and translating jumbled words into smooth, simple prose.

Other awesome authors include Carole, who interviews members of the Answers.com community for weekly Contributor Corner posts, and Ali, a quality editor with a great sense of humor. And a big shout out to the amazing Liz, who was the face of this blog from 2007 to 2011.

My 11 year old daughter Googled a science ? She looked at your Site WIKI put in her ? The ? was about the types of factors of nonliving environments. Her reply was sexually rude. How can you have someone answer a ? like that? What are you doing to protect children from these rude answers? I was with her and quickly told her not to read the answer. What are you going to do to fix this issue?
Hi Nancy,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention! It looks like that answer is no longer on the site. If it is please post the full question so that we can remove it.
Because WikiAnswers is based on the wiki platform anybody can share their knowledge. However, that means vandals sometimes post problem answers as well. We have a dedicated group of over 400 supervisors who patrol the site removing harmful content but unfortunately we can’t catch everything. We are also developing a number of automated means to catch this vandalism before it even gets on the site.
Thank you for helping maintain the integrity of the service!

If there is no such thing as a stupid question or answer, how come when I asked about nintendo ds covers my answer was… actually, yes…April Fool’s —jurk. Why the obnoxious comment, and who oversees these replies?
Hi Heybug, I apologize for the offensive answer that someone left to your question. As Matthew stated above, we work diligently to stop vandals, but there are times when they slip past us. I will check that Q&A, and will remove the offensive answer if another supervisor hasn’t beat me to it. And, hopefully, someone has already left a legitimate answer for you by now, but if not, please keep checking; we have many contributors who are excellent in Nintendo, as well as other games categories. JoyceP, Supervisor
please help me with the following question:

how do i ask a question
Hi Iain!
Go to http://wiki.answers.com. Ask your question in the search box at the top of the page. WikiAnswers might already have it, or you can enter it as a new question.
If you register and log in (you only need a username, password and email address) you can actually get emailed when your question is answered or updated…
Be in touch if you want to know more…
I’ve been letting my son use this website and he was directed to a link (Terrible Link) called buttpics.com after asking a simple geography question – thought someone would like to know. Also, he will never return to wiki.answers.com.
Hi Zabrina –
I’m so sorry that your child had to find that. I would love to remove the link (it’s very easy to do and any signed in user can do it) – do you still have the URL of that Q&A?
Unfortunately, vandalism sometimes happens on WikiAnswers. Since it’s a user-generated Q&A site, where anyone can add questions or edit answers, we do stand to get silly questions and answers, vandalism and pure junk. The aim is that an expert should come along and enter the best possible answer s/he can give, improving the Q&A and helping future users.
In case you are interested, it might help to know that WikiAnswers has a team of 400+ volunteer Supervisors who make it their business to roam through the site and clean up vandalism and spam (amongst other things). This also includes a dedicated Vandal Patrol who works around the clock to stop and block vandals.
There is actually a flagging system for users who are logged in (registering is quick and only requires a username, password and email address). The list of flagged Q&As is constantly checked and the answers fixed. In addition, we are currently working on a Flagging system for non-logged in users.
Hope this helps…
Inside a warm damp cave completely sealed off from the outside world could life flourish indefinitely?
Answer: No life forms could flourish indefinitely. In an isolated system, entropy always increases. Life tries to push entropy in the opposite direction. When life is created, entropy decreases in the cave but nature demands a greater entropy increase offset. The cave, being sealed, would mean that entropy would reach its max, thus energy necessary to sustain and generate new life would be unavailable. Maybe we should learn a lesson from this. Available energy is mandatory. Wealth may equate to available energy. If you want to live in a nation that is prospering make sure that its available energy supply is abundant.

ello. I am new here and am being harassed by a supervisor. She hasgne through and edite everything I have done, but you can clearly see that my answers were well done to begin with. She jst changed the order of my words, or something else insignificant. She had sent me a message a couple days ago, telling me I would be booted if I didnt add links to my post the right way. I had sent her a message back that I wa not pleased with the threat nor the greeting at all. She then edited all of my answers and now I can’t use them for the scholarship contest. Pleae check my recent activity, it is obvious that she is harassing me. I want to be a part of this community, but she is making it much less enjoyable for me.
Please contact me about this if there is anything you can do.

hi
Would you be interested in some of “the strangest questions ever asked a shrink?” I would have to make sure they are totally anomalous. Otherwise this is an excellent way to learn about JustAnswer. I find that it is a great place to work and I like the commute but I can’t seem to find any coworkers around the water cooler.
how could i coonect to steven seagel?
Hi Katie, How did you come about your nickname? Cool name!
I would like to see Olive Garden And Red Lobster as one place to eat. That would be great.
Love dogs, wish to see them wiggle their tail, that is a sign that tells me they are happy…no better friend in the world than a dog…god’s gifts are every where….we have to love them and protect them. Only then can you say I have done a mitzah….a very good deed!!!!!!!
