“A friendly and active site that I couldn't recommend more.”

I stumbled across the site yesterday and decided to join it and I was glad I did. I was immediately made to feel very welcome, not only by normal members, but by the staff too. The interface took a little getting used to, but it didn't take me long to work it out.

“Blurtit is DEAD”

I dunno what to say, Blurtit is a great QA site where you can find friends and receive help from them. However, it's not that good, as It was, because the site is totally dead. You can't register a new account, no new topics. They should sell it to anyone with the same idea, cuz it will just die.

The owner has done nothing for years. The proof is everywhere. It's evidenced by zero (0) topic updates in over 2 years, and no moderation to enforce the Code of Conduct. Racist name calling (I won't repeat here) and bullying really increased in 2020 when a banned member logged into a friend's account and posted abuse after abuse. There are calm spells, but nothing is removed and fresh abuse inevitably comes. The owner has been contacted on several occasions. No response. No care. How can he abide? His pretty words of "conduct" are meaningless. If he is done caring he should shut it down so it can't do any more harm.

They menace me and I stopped using it. Many users complained about the website and they were banned from the site.

After Ask shut down its Q&A Community several people jumped over to Blurtit. It was fun, but still had enough serious questions. They booted and banned the best moderator I have ever come across and now 3/4 of the site is spam. The mod is rarely on and the site has banned or ran away several awesome members.

I've been a member of the site for four years and the experience is great there, that's why I stayed around for that long. Some questions used to be a little weird but the nature of the questions really improved over the time frame I've been around the site. The other two reviews are probably being based off of one question they saw or a 5-minute visit they had to the site. It's really a great site, with a very friendly, helpful community, and the site has great questions with a lot of high-quality answers. Five stars out of five from me!

Site design and layout is great, unfortunately that is the only good thing about this site. It's name, "Blurtit," is very apt. People cavalierly give glib advice about all sorts of sensitive topics with a lot less input from quality control mechanisms than the leading Q&A sites. There are no user profiles for users to proffer their credentials or qualifications. There are no citings of sources.

Their About page says they (whoever they are, it never discloses) "wanted to create a new online community which would allow people from all over the world to share their knowledge" and that they brought the site into production in June of '06 "after months of hard work and research." I find this humorous as their claim to have put a lot of effort into this site seems to be a bit wanting in credibility.

Skip this site for one of their numerous competitors.

I joined this Site and initially was impressed, not by the Site but the members and the Staff
They are amazing
After a couple of days I seriously find this Site confusing
Not because I'm a Dumb $#*! but because whoever designed this Site
Has complicated most things

The Notifications are confusing, when they need not be

FULL PAGES OF COMMENTS AND MESSAGES BEFORE EVEN CLICKING ON THEM
JUST ONE LINE IS ENOUGH
