I just don't like being forced to do things. Facebook wanted me to add some more info, which I hate, but at least they let me click 'next' a bunch of times and then it was over with.

Quora has done a good job figuring out what I like based on links I click from other sources, why do I have to tell them more? I wouldn't be annoyed by the topic page if it came up one time, I could click "skip" and it goes away forever.

I am not sure I would actually pay $5 to skip that page, I live perfectly fine without Quora, but I'd at least respect the "be annoyed or pay" attitude.

Having said all that, maybe this doesn't annoy many people and I'm simply a grumpy old-ish man.
