Attention Yahoo: the new Y!A sucks?

This is directed at the people who made changes on Y!A recently. The changes you made are absolutely terrible and have made the site as user-unfriendly as could be. It used to be there was a convenient "Recommended" button at the top of the page under my profile box; that is no longer there. With a lot of hunting I was able to find that on the home page under the "Answers" tab there is a customizing feature where I could make the Answers list show only Recommended things. It should not be that difficult.

And for my saved searches, that function is absolutely unusable any more. They show absolutely EVERYTHING that matches my saved searches from the past 5 or 6 years with no way to sort it and show only the most recent things. With some tweaking of the saved search details to narrow it down to the last 7 days and show only things that are open questions, it displays nothing even though I know there were new questions posted just yesterday before these changes took place on my browser. (It must have refreshed the page layout and gotten rid of the old display scripts.)

I used to find enjoyment in coming here and answering questions that matched my interests and knowledge, but now it's nothing but frustration that is really making me think there are much better things I can do with my time than waste it here trying to make this crappy layout work for me.

Why would you do this? And who thought these changes would be for the better?

    If you are looking at the newest Beta version, those changes are user requested for the most part. Answwering without opeing the question was user requested, an easier profile to see questions was user requested, the notifications as a menu item was user requested, etc.

    As to your issues, we hope the Search change is the middle of a change for the better (notice the new customize page?). To fix your Saved Search for now as you describe, just edit it to return the time period you want. As to the Recommended button, it was pretty much canned by most users, so you are a minority that liked it. Since most hated it, they took it away. It never worked very well and it could not be customized.

    If you want to really tell Yahoo your feeling, either use the Suggestion Board which they appear to be reading again or use your feet to go to another site.
