Q: Why does Need Answers have so many old questions

Today most of the questions in the unanswered question section between five and twenty eight weeks old. Including this question there are only three less than five weeks old. It seems to me that these are just not going to be answered. Why does admin not clear these out, is it to make this site look busier than it really is. A lot of these questions, due  to their age, are irrelevant. Many have some sort of time factor in the question that would make answers now irrelevant.

I once had a question that went unanswered for several hours.  But that's hardly surprising given the inane questions I usually ask.

Old questions should expire. If they are not answered within, say a couple of weeks, no one will ever answer, or they will be answered by flashlight hunters.

The old Admin Cat used to empty them when he cleaned his litter box, I think this one goes outside and uses the sidewalk like everyone else.

Hi tomcatflyer, sorry for the late reply. 

 

We don't delete the unanswered questions as that would cause the user who posted it to lose points. 

 

Thanks, 

 

Admin 

TedDBayer:

if I look at history of answered questions, I see many questions are deleted. What are these? I see banned users questions remain.

A:You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holding English Teaching license in your home country.2nd: Your BA degree should be completed in a native English country. Once, you fulfilled these 'parameters', you qualify for an English teaching job in China as a non-native English sneaker with Z - Entry/working visa with Working and Residence permit later on. See the last 'Answers Highlight' ---> there is a web link posted about 'requirements for teaching English language in China as a non-English native passport holder'. https://www.gooverseas.com/blog/guide-teaching-english-china#paragraph-item-63614-target

*English proficiency: Passport from one of seven "native speaker" countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa). If you aren’t a native speaker, you’ll need to be a certified teacher in your home country with proof of your English proficiency (e.g. IELTS or TOEFL). I'd say, Chinese will choose and look especially for a native English speaker at teaching of English Literature job openings. Posted job adverts for English Literature teaching are most likely from International Schools in China. Good luck! -- icnif77
