Why can't you get replies to questions for words found in dictionaries?

1 Answer

Answer :

Online Laws of Q & A - Formula states: Answers to questions are immediately affected by number of questions + number of hours in a day x number of people able or available to answer - how many people troll and enter wrong answers x how quickly troll answers are noticed.... 46,773,685 questions... Now, what word are you interested in ? NOTE: A "404" is not a reply, but a website status page. There are many reasons for getting website status page, but generally, a 404 mostly means "try again in a few minutes". It's like getting a busy signal on a telephone.... try again.
