Stackoverflow often goes out of their way to be rude and critical, rather than helpful. Experts-Exchange has a better attitude.

I enjoy the wide range of topics Expert-Exchange handles.
I use always EE
The Experts Exchange community has been great whenever I needed it most. The amount of time I saved from using the site has far exceeded the small monthly subscription. I can always count on getting professional answers from Experts Exchange.
The Experts Exchange business model ensures that the answers I need are answered by capable people, meeting the specific needs of the person asking the question. Even though it costs a monthly fee, I know that I'm paying for a quality resource that is sure to be composed of people that really want to help each other get quality tech assistance.
I believe that the points system actually encourages a superior quality of answers in the competition to be awarded the points on offer. Unless you live in a communist society, then competition and fee for service is part of how business is done; is it not? If I need to physically take my computer in to have a problem solved, does the business resolve my problem 'in the spirit of it'? I dont think so, he has rent, wages, family, bills to pay. So he is going to charge me a truckload more than a bunch of 'points'. There is nothing wrong with a bit of healthy competition. It keeps you sharp and drives you to continually better yourself. And beside, you wouldnt enjoy playing all those computer games would you?
you can read the answers at the end of the webpage.
always there is an answer for almost any technical question.
keep up the good work
because "EE" - members trying to understand the problem. Not everybody is begging for points, there is also some passion!!
