¿Question #3582?
skelebone: Why would anyone ever want to do something so silly as to answer all of the GeekQuestions? Don't they realize just how time consuming it is to go through every single question entry to find the ones that have been delisted?

ocdspectrum: It won’t take more than six more years...
pwilz: Leave Clark alone. He's an inspiration to us all back here.
BOBBYCAN: Please shut the fuck up, I'm answering questions here.
Megamaniac: This hero will be immortal forever.
MisterCranky: I don't really have a useful opinion on this, sorry.
NaughtHere: Good question!
ttron64: no
xofour: I don't think you would have to go through the entries to find the delisted ones. Wait, okay you should be able to clear up some of the confusion. I was under the impression that questions came up basically totally randomly except for the parts that aren't randome because there are non-random parts which keep a person from answering their own questions, and I believe to keep a person from answering the same question twice, so you cannot say it is completely and entirely random. It's just mostly randomesque, roughly. But I have seen a question or two & an answer or two which implies that if you have enough quesiton you actually start to get repeats & have to hunt & peck (wow and wouldnt' that form of typing make the geekquestions even more time consuming? there is a thought to play with for a while) for actual new & original questions. So do you start getting your own questions, or your never answers left? Or, do you just not get anything once you have answered all the questions. See that is something that would be cool to find out & to witness first hand. Which would kind of answer your question, or at least your first question. Just to see what happens. The second question is trickier & is what made me curious. Because I would think that if a question were delisted, it wouldn't exist anymore. Not in a way a person could access. IF that is the case, then how would we search & find it? What about the quesitons I deleted due to high embarasement? You havecertainly opened a huge kettle of worms here my friend I hope you are happy with yourself.
daveroswell: Im just wasting time
rseater: A sense of completion
SuperDude: I dunno.
DHEK: Maybe they want to accomplish something that can't be easily repeated. Perhaps the difficulty involved in doing it is part of the appeal.
elirlandes: Couldn't agree more.
ZiggyZambo: not sure
Grym: Eh?
POvidiusNaso: I don't know. I'll probably stop around, well, well short of getting the delisted ones.
aleo09: yes, it can be time consuming
Nonamnon: Because they live in quiet desperation and really hate their job.
Tenchizard: but it's funny
scriptorum: I don't know what this means, but it's Jan 1 so I'm still waking up...
greglios: Some people have nothing better to do.
bigbadsteve: yes, scott, tell us about it
eddyspaghetti: Obsessive compulsive behavior.
Igloo cool: Al...most...there....
SkyBry: I am bored.
brainrob: You'd like to think so
DaGen: its a calling
double_ones: it's not the answering... it's the reading that we enjoy
mvettemagred: Bored at work
GuyHill: because of the box of geekgold at the end of the rainbow?
GrandpaDave: I guess not
ping9x: There are some crazy gamers lurking about.
ststrat: Wha?
puffinge: padding
Dante_Cubit: Because it fills our pathetic existences with mundane tasks to keep us from murdering our families.
Cavedog_pdx: I think I've hit "Never Answer" more than anybody else. 16 pages of NAs I have yes!
ValJor: I think this would be better answered by Scott Reed... Hey! It's you!
sourwyrm: kinda crazy
erli: NOOOOOO!
Lord_Prussian: That's a very good question indeed. What does it mean to be "delisted" and how do you go through the entries to find them?
chaddyboy_2000: Because we're crazy bitches.
CDRodeffer: I don't try to find the delisted ones. I just answer these while data is crunching.
djlg: Its an addiction. Yes.
jttm: Precisely why I'll never have a complete list/
Spielfreak: It's not my goal. Yet, I finally have cracked the top ten answerer list. I am sooooooo pathetic...
heli: OCD?
skelebone: You're telling me. No, wait, I'm telling me. Hours and hours of my life drained away.
