Experts Exchange was the SO before SO and it was so bad, so bad that I can imagine it was one of the reasons SO was built in the first place. When the Exchange name appeared I cringed because it always reminded me of the worst QA UX in history, sitting on IRC was better. Glad it went away.

Jeff Atwood agrees with you about Experts Exchange, and wrote an article about it.

I still remember this "trick", where you just had to go at the extreme bottom of the page to see the comments that were hidden only a few scrolls above. Never understood why.

Despite this trick, I don't remember finding any solution to my issues on this website.

This is actually a function built in by Google originally to help newspapers etc. It's called "first page free". News sites want their content to be indexed by Google so they can get search traffic, however, Google does not want to send users to a login page, so they compromised Google will index content that is normally blocked by a pay wall in exchange the publication is required to show the full content of that page to any visitor from Google. If you try navigating to another set of answers it will probably require to you login unless you go back to Google and search for it.

Not only are they crappy but their URL is Expert Sex Change

[artmageddon]

It used to be Expert Sex Change. After some time they realized their folly, and fixed it by hyphenating the domain as well as redirecting from ExpertSexChange to the Experts-Exchange.
