Okay heres the scoop, I posted two riddles from the same website, because I thought they were both really cute and funny.

On one of the questions I wrote a little side comment of where I got the riddle from because I felt bad "stealing" someone elses riddle, and yahoo deleted it and told me I broke some rule. The second time I did it from the same site but didn't give any credit and I didn't get deleted. Both would be rated G because there is no foul language and both were the riddles of the day from a site that Yahoo! provides on My Yahoo!

Does anyone know what I got reported for one and not the other? What rule of conduct did I disobey? Has this ever happened to you?

When ever Yahoo deletes a question/submission the questioner will b notified with a mail and the detail of violation will be highlighted such 'Profanity' advertisment etc', what i understood from ur qstn is that you too got a mail from YA team and the reason shall be in it, though i can't understand the reason for deleting a riddle that too is G rated!! The only reason i can make out that some AIR HEAD paricipant raised a report on ur question, YA policing is mostly done by the participants unfortunately there are few crazy paricipants in YA that's a fact. Check out my last submission from my profile you will understand what i mean, i too got a violation notice yesterday.

It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time, and this should help get you started. During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criterion was which defined whether or not a patient should be institutionalized.

"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"

I'd say because you said you felt bad for stealing someone else's riddle because your not allowed to do that.Next time just take the credit for it yourself lol goodluck in the future
