Many people do. There are some good answers on it. If someone gets their question answered, they will trust it. Some people may not have their question answered, so they will not trust it. The majority of answers given are correct as the majority of contributors give correct answers. There are also people looking out for questions that have been answered wrongly and will try to fix them, or remove any silly answers or comments made.
