When I search for answers for specific coding questions, I always bump into threads in various tech forums, for example, here's what I found for a C# question:

* [Thread in bytes.com forum](http://bytes.com/topic/c-sharp/answers/262265-web-services-custom-classes)
* [Thread in asp.net forum](http://forums.asp.net/t/1345108.aspx?Trying%20to%20consume%20Web%20Service%20class%20returns%20a%20class%20C%20)
* [Thread in p2p.wrox.com forum](http://p2p.wrox.com/c/35391-custom-classes-web-services.html)

I was always wondering - why, given the existence of the much more superior StackOverflow network, people would still go to other messy/ugly/miserable/non-user-friendly Q&A communities to ask coding questions. 

I know variety is probably a good thing, but it really bothers me when seeing a critical question of which answers I would really like to read through but couldn't do so smoothly because it's formatted horribly and is ruined with endless quotings as a result of being presented in a bad platform.

If you are one of those people who still ask coding questions in other forums, I would like to hear your reason.
