What did they do wrong to prompt you to report them?

Yes.
Sexually explicit question involving children--and I would do it again.

Yes some morals or some dignity should be maintained, but we just cant stop anyone out rightly. the best thing would be to ignore. and Mr. No-duh Yoda , this is not a silly website. First read the question with an observing mind, he is talking about some really bad content on this site being written by some foolish people, not from the world around him.If this is a silly website then you are the silliest person on earth for being here.

Very frequently -- and for persistent violators of the Terms of Service, I file multiple abuse reports under each of the appropriate categories. Most of them are racial slurs and similar items, a few are adult content, spam & advertisement, etc. I also report point-gamers ("thanks for the 2 points") and anyone I see whose answer is "duh" or "i dunno" or something similar. If this site is to become truly useful, Yahoo has to do two things:
1. Eliminate children by requiring a credit card number to register.
2. Charging an annual fee to use the site (possibly refundable if you don't receive any abuse reports for the year).
Any day now Yahoo will realize that this website is a waste of space from a commercial perspective (how many of the 11 year olds on here are clicking the ads?), and will shut it down.

I reported on two who sent me harassing person e mails; another who completely misread another and was practically indicting me; and a fourth one who kept copying and pasting the same response to every question about the particular topic.
Although I reported the first two, Yahoo really didn't do anything other than keep sending me auto replies, although I do notice one of the people reported has not asked or answered any questions since then, so maybe they booted her off. I don't really know, though!

Yes, for several different reasons. Advertising get-rich-quick schemes. Instead of asking a question they took it as an opportunity to post racist beliefs. The question was asking others to agree to their insults about another participant. The question was simply ranting about different topics with no clear question. Sexually explicit comments. Duplicating the same question repeatedly (more than twice so it isn't accidental).

a couple times..I reported one question about raping somebody and another that was just designed to stir up racial tension even more- not like there aren't a hundred of those questions every day.

Only a couple of times, but here I am with a new profile because I am close to getting violated out of my other one.

I've only reported for profanity, particularly the "F" word.
