such as CAN I PEE ON YOU?, or
CAN YOU SMELL MY CRAP FROM WHERE YOU ARE SITTING?
but does not allow FUNNY AND TASTEFUL ANSWERS to questions LIKE I tried to do as you will see:
The Question: I don't undestand these 911 conspiracies? Why would the gov. make so many obvious mistakes?
The Following was my answer and also deemed "Details of Violation": Was it because Charles wasn't in charge? Anyone remember Scott Baio?
Reason of Violation:Not a Question or Answer :
If you feel you were not in violation, please contact our Customer Care and tell us why.

Is this answer an optimistic plight in creating a bit of levity to an unanswerable situation for many Americans regarding the 9/11 CONSPIARCY THEORIES? Granted, the answer should be taken as biblical but at least is on the other side of the bathroom door and it is answered. What's the problem?

I'll tell you why... Because without conspiracy and the governments repeated mistakes that threaten the very lives of one and all, there would be no "Yahoo! Answers" and "Avatars".
Plain and simple...

Wow.. I am shocked!
At first i thought you were on some kind of moral crusade but after reading your full question agree completely with you and have no idea why your question was taken as a violation.
I think your answer is pretty funny! If in fact we have a bad sense of humour or not, its certainly not offensive enough to be taken off especially when its quite ok to ask if someone should sleep with their sister etc. I dont know what is up with that. Who the hell says what is a violation anyway and where did they leave their sense of humour? I personally think that there should be an 18+ section with no censorship whatsoever. There will always be arguments over what is offensive so i think everything goes and if you don't dig it, leave.

I'm not sure but it seems like if someone takes the time to report you they will have a rule that you have violated. As for some of those questions I have reported a couple and they were deleted. But if I spent all my time doing that I couldn't do anything else. All in all it's a pretty good forum here I think. I answered one question that was so stupid with "your question doesn't deserve an answer 2 points" and my answer was in violation for some reason. I just shrug it off and keep on going.

The system is arbitary as i am sure they have someone read the questions and answers.
then make a decision at their descretion.
if you get a liberal or right winger........your answer could be in violation.
it is the nature of censorship is who does the censoring.
i have gotten gaming for points on a real answer that addressed the question.
i have gotton a no answer on an answer that had an interview in it addressing the very question specifically.
its all a game. the worst part is they can take away your email account attatached.
in the politics section enimes use whatever they can.

Its only because the asker doesn't have a sense of humour.
I think Yahoo automatically sends an email when you're reported.
I was warned about answering the following question:
Q: Where can I buy a saree in.........?
A: Sarees R Us
Obviously a joke but the asker had no sense of humour. The reason they chose : gaming for points.
Whatever!!!

It's this new thing they have that's "supposed" to filter out spam. I liked the original version of answers so much better.
If it helps, I do think your answer was funny.

you would possibly want to imagine those questions are Dumb, yet for those human beings no count number what age, race or sex, this is an major question. in case you imagine they are dumb, dont provide them an answer or dont examine it. some human beings in basic terms prefer to ask questions no count number how dumb they are.
