YES! I started on ActiveRain complaining about the repetitive or useless questions. I think there's a better option but nobody seems to agree.

Now that I have a free account, it doesn't matter! I'll probably let the Q&A slowly die away.

I love to answer the Qs but the spurts of rapid-fire repetition of essentially the same topics OVER. and. OVER. make my eyes rain! 
I have maintained that if AR would institute some kind of indexing and search and reject exact matches like we do with blog titles, it would make this section more vibrant . . . alas, I am not the Q/A cops!

Do you mean question like this one?

No, I do not tire of answering or asking.

The one who asks has a purpose or need. It maybe one of the needs that occur or reoccur in the lives of many. They are compelled to continue circling the mountain until the 'see.'

You may possess that unique insight that lifts the veil. Was such a gift to be hoarded or shared?

No, I do not tire of asking or answering questions. After all asking and answering are 100% my decision. To express dislike is self condemnation.

When I see questions from the Utah noobs I just ignore them. Like others here, I don't feel like I can help them. There was that one nice noob that thanked us all for taking the time - that was nice.

Sometimes there are great Q's & then sometimes not. Notice that sometimes we have a rash of 'I can't find it' questions also.

I virtually never ask a question here... in fact, don't think I've asked more than five in total. I don't get tired of answering questions except for those that are asked again and again and again by students who don't seem to give a minute's thought to what they are asking or why.
