All I asked is "Is everyone on here to young to remember the 90's?" How is that a violation? I'm confused! I posted details to my question. If we aren't allowed to do that, then why have the feature? I'm mad now!

Do they have a rule about asking very closed questions (yes / no ) about an extremely wide and general topic?
After all, your question really was asking for a "yes / no" response - of which some people would provide one answer - and other people would provide the other. It would be meaningless.
I might be barking up the wrong tree - but I am guessing if you had been a tad more specific about what you wanted to know (music, culture, food, names, fashion etc) and then asked what folks remember/liked/disliked about it - it may have been allowed to stay.

I don't think that falls into the 'chatting' realm & personally I see nothing wrong with the question. I can't figure out how that would break the rules. It seems very odd to me. All I can guess at is that someone was being a jerk & for whatever reason that might not have anything to do with you or the question, they reported you. It doesn't make sense, but don't let it get to you.

Yahoo didn't report you. Someone with a hair up their you know what did it. Yahoo does not have the staff to sift through the millions of questions so they rely on us to report abuses and some people take advantage of it. Don't worry about it. I got reported for asking "Why did my cat have kittens when I thought she was just fat?"

Which questions get sacked and which don't is completely sporatic and unregulated. Being level 4 you should know that. All it takes is ticking off the wrong person reading your question and with one abuse report, *poof*, your question is gone. It's bull, but that's the system.
BTW, I loved the 90's. That was my coming-of-age period.

i don't see how that would be a violation but they deleted one of my questions too that didn't seem bad either "Any random thoughts?" i figured i might get entertained by other people's random thoughts but no one got to answer it cuz it was deleted by yahoo. i put no details and they still thought of it as a violation.

There is a certain Gestapo mindset to the moderators nowadays. Can't tell you specifically, but they are getting pretty antsy about age related questions.

Huh? I have seen some petty violates (I have gotten some petty violations), but this is specious beyond belief!

Maybe some racist person is being a butt-head. They should check it out both ways so people can't just report someone for
spite.
