Actually, most of the answers on this site are indeed helpful. However, you likely found answers what were answered by disruptive users or by users who didn't know what they were talking about. They are a minority of users. The supervisors, community assistants, and well-intended users try to fix as much of the unhelpful stuff as they can. It can be frustrating to ask a serious question, only to get "Your mama" or "IDK, go look it up!" as responses.
Of course, if you think you can do better, you are free to edit the answers to be more helpful. While you are not allowed to delete other people's opinions unless they are inflammatory or offensive, you are allowed to delete vandalism and factually incorrect answers. From there, you might add things to make the answers helpful.
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. If you find an answer on WikiAnswers that is unhelpful, you can remove it or flag it for improvement using the tools on the blue bar on your left.
We're not unhelpful. They are questions submitted every second and you can't expect us to be answering every one of them. To get your answers quickly, try googling your question.

It depends. As anyone with a WikiAnswers account can 'improve' an answer, they can also violate this and make the answer worse by changing it to unhelpful things.
Google allows you to block sites you deem to be unhelpful.
Some people just think that WikiAnswers is a place to joke around and have fun. Please remember that WikiAnswers IS NOT a place for that kind of nonsense. It was made for good and helpful answers.
The main reason is because this is a wiki site. That means that any contributor can give answers, even wrong ones. Some deliberately give unhelpful or wrong answers, but most simply think they know the answer when they don't.
When people reply to a question by repeating the question that was asked, that is unhelpful.
There the Bad Users on here, People who are SPA's and Supervisor's and those type of things are trying to stop that type of thing here.
for the first two days I am not sure if you have received the email you had already received from my office or my phone I love
