Answer 1

If you were not abusive to other players and got reported,thenYou are a victim of Yahoo’s Spam guard! Here is whats going on.Yahoo installed Spam bot trackers in lounges to stop = bar them, from games.It tracks Ids and how many changes they make.EXAMPLE ! Now say you enter a Intermediate lounge with a 1500 ID.You hop into a table,get booted,try 3 more,booted,now you go to beginners lounge.BARRED! spam bot tagged you! This is how I thing it works! Automatic 24 hrs 1 st time,48 hr the next,72hr 3rd time. 4th time account closed! I am already seeing a few people with this problem.This is really bad for tourney directors who need to hop from table to table.Yahoo can not help you! To many reports from Spam Bot tracker and players asking Why! By the time they get to yours times up!Try this when playing.Select a lounge matching your rating.when you get in,spend a few minutes checking table player’s rates.pick a table,join and play a few games before changing tables!IF you join a lounge but do not play,and try another,try and stay there for a few games.Do not bounce from table to table,lounge to lounge.THE SPAM BOT WILL GET YOU! Want to get even since spam bots are reason you got barred?Report any sex cam bots you find in game lounges,they now stay put because of yahoo’s spam bot tracker.list Id name,game and lounge.Email this info to address in this link yahoo needs your help locating them. ..http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/profiles/cgi_feedback?subject=badness&yid=%20

Answer 2

I WAS BARRED TWICE

Yahoo has Spam Tracker Robots, and now if you move around too much, get booted from tables too much or get invited too much, it will mistake you for spam and bar you from games for 24, 48 and 72 hrs. and terminate your account if too many times or something else that you did.
Get another profile, not another id on same profile, and you can play until you are unbarred.

Hi, Sorry you are having problems. I just finished installing Internet Esplorer 7 provided by and otimized for Yahoo!. The icon should be on your Yahoo browser by the Search Web address bar.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/...

Yahoo also has another Home Page too. You might check it out. It is the last entry on the dropdown list under the big red Y! next to the pencil on your browser. I think this will take care of everything for you but , if not......

I KNOW THIS IS LONG........but please read it all.
Yahoo has a new format. Here are several things you should know and do:

If you have a pop-up blocker click on it, Click on always allow and type http://games.yahoo.com or try to get in first and when you hear your pop-up
(or not) click on the drop-down list on your blocker and then click on always allow and then click on games.yahoo.com.

Shove-it backdoor is is working again (for me).
Amish Donkey.com backdoor: http://amishdonkey.com

Selecting small table before you enter a room makes more room for dialog on table. Resize (pull down) your screen after you get to a table.
Selecting small table after you enter does too, and also stops the ads, however; you only see the top half your cards.
Or you can just change your screen resolution by going to properties on your desktop, then settings and slide just a tiny bit from 800x600 to 1024x768 and switch it back when you finish playing. Which is what I do.

You cannot chat in yahoo anymore except on table and in lobby.

If the problems you're experiencing with Yahoo! Games include:
getting a blank screen
nothing occurring when you try to join a table
any similar problem
Make sure that the "Enable Java" box is checked.(under tools on browser choose internet options then advanced)
http://java.sun.com/ .........To install the latest version

You may need to analyze for defragmenting. Increase your memory if you keep losing your connection while playing. (under tools tab click on internet options, then settings, then advanced, needs to be 526 or higher.)

You may also want to clear your cache(history)on your browser or on internet options and restart your browser

If you continue to have problems, double-check your computer's compatibility with Yahoo! Games.

I hope this helps you out. It did the trick for me. It also increased my speed.
