Why do people with no experience or compassion bother answering questions on this board?

Question:

If someone has a mental health problem the last thing they want to hear is "Jump off a 10 storey building" or "Get off your lazy backside" etc.

Answers:
Only for points. They do not care about others and perhaps
not even about themselves. I sincerely think there should be
and umpire in Q&A to take points away from offenders who
answer one four letter word and nothing else. As you well say,
some answers are only going to make things worse for some
who really need help, so if these answers are offensive and
disturbing take ten points off their score, the rules of this Q&A
are quite clear and I wonder how many have read them. I have
and it is at Yahoo‘s sole discretion to go as far as cancelling email
accounts. It will cost a few even headed guys to follow this
activity but, certainly we will be rid of them once and for all. The
rules even mention "correct English" is one of the rules, and only this
would get rid of 75% of offenders. I have already reported these
problems to Yahoo and received nothing in reply. So my friend,
I thank you for your question which stands out like a sore thumb
in the system and perhaps, if we have more complaints, Yahoo
may revise or enforce the rules. This site is supposed to be
helpful and educational, but we have more offenders than anything
else. Sorry for the long reply, but it is on purpose to try and draw
attention. Yahoo, give us some Umpires, please! My sincere
thanks to you, and perhaps, to Yahoo if they pay attention to our
woes. Cheers - Iain Ritchie

As Brucie used to say
What do points make....?

There really are some people about who are heartless and stupid and think it's all a big joke. I've suffered from depression big time and know how influenced you can be by such stupid answers, so it's really not that great or clever. All you can really say in return is they are the ones that should jump off the 10 floor building!!

Because they have nothing more constructive to say, and in some small way, I suppose it makes them feel superior or something?
