Yahoo states that if the typos & grammar are so prevalent in your question that it makes it hard to interpret, they can remove it. It has nothing to do with free speech - which is a whole other issue (on a private site, you aren't guaranteed free speech). It has to do with the TOS of the community.

The community guidelines are in place so all who use this may enjoy it. If you are using the system then you accepted the community guidelines as they are. If you want a place to voice your opinions then may I suggest going to a chat room. It could be that it was not the subject matter but how you asked your question is the problem. I can't say I didn't see the question.

I don't know why they would have removed it. Usually Yahoo sends you a message as to the reason (referring to community guidelines). If there were any "hate" references in your question, that could have done it. Did you get anything from them? A LOT of us have been turned in. If it wasn't in a question form, people will turn you in for "chatting" -- mean people suck sometimes. Go back to your email from Yahoo and see what it says and look at the guidelines.

Do you know what the concept of free speech is? It only protects you from government interference. Yahoo owns this "forum" as you call it, and can do whatever it damn well pleases with your question.

Have you been introduced to the "spell check" button? It's a marvelous invention that fixes all the spelling mistakes--and, hon, you've got lots.
