Probably because it's an 'open forum' where people can ask almost anything !
WikiAnswers is definitely NOT the most useless website. WikiAnswers is very useful, and can only be very useful through the work of your volunteers (users). WikiAnswers is useful mainly for those generic, mind boggling questions, and not the complex, detail oriented questions. Keeping questions as simple as possible will make WikiAnswers the most useful site ever. WikiAnswers is only useless through the eyes of those who are not patient and do not get immediate answers, and/or their question is not on the site. because you don't ask the IMPORTANT questions Wikianswers is not useless, it's just the contributers that are useless.
You can prevent bots from answering your questions on WikiAnswers with useless pat answers by blocking their IP addresses as soon as you notice them.
Wikianswers is not all that useless, it helps with some stuff. I think it's kind of useless too, but it's just because the contributors don't know enough to answer your questions. Its useless for a lot of things, but still, theres at least two questions it can answer for every one it cant, so really, its a good site.
The WikiAnswers team can take an indefinite amount of time to erase useless or incomplete answers. Questions on WikiAnswers are answered by users of the website, not necessarily staff members. If you see a useless answer, remove it or flag it so that other users can see that the answer needs to be improved.
Useless questions are ones that are made just to waste time, and not to provide anything to the community. So more or less your question.
1) You gets what you pays for. 2) Consider the questions.

Yes , you can answer the questions on wikianswers.
Any question that is appropriate is legitimate to WikiAnswers. Make sure you need the question answered. For example I have seen questions like: How do you eat a road? Are tables edible? How many letters in the word letter? These are useless and inappropriate questions for the WikiAnswers community. Not because they have bad language, just because they are useless.
Well, wikianswers is a website where people can come and answer questions. So, basically, you can expect people to make immature answers. Also, a number of the newer answers that are useless are being given by bots.
You can recategorize, answer questions, edit questions, and do much more on WikiAnswers.
Not all answers on WikiAnswers are useless. Usually unhelpful answers are posted by WikiAnswers users who don't know what they are doing, and post answers to questions even if they don't really know the answer.
