By "question" I meant both the question and/or the answers given by the site.

By "misleading" I mean the questions (and/or answers) lead to conclusions that would not normally be made if one had a wider knowledge of the subject than the knowledge contained in the question (and/or answers).

For a nice example of inaccurate see: My Previous Post

That is a very unusual arguement. Questions aren't questions. Questions are also the answer? My experience is that the question is the interrogatory and the answer is the response to that interrogarory.

Questions do not and often will not encompass every possible answer which may or may not be given. Have a seat in a legitimate court and observe how fact is established. One question and one answer at a time, at a time.

Are you saying the questions were not complicated enough? It has been my experience that simple questions engender simple answers. The quiz I posted had multiple answers. It was certainly not unfair, in that only one answer was possible, a person's only reqiurement was to use their knowledge and common sense.
