I got reported for reporting spam and advertising and guess what.....?

Question

I reported some one for spam and advertising and I asked a question asking if anyone else was annoyed by this person. I cut and pasted the persons message and used it in my question as proff it was happeneing.
Then I got reported for spam and advertising even though they weren't my words. !!!!!

How unfair is that ??

Answer 1

This site is full of idiots who can barely read, much less compose a decent question. Don't feel bad, just remember you are smarter than them.

Answer 2

I think that is unfair. I did something similar and my whole entire question was taken off. I received an email claiming that I performed an act that had to be removed as a question. They stated that I was personally seeking this person out and making comments about their spam. I was just perturbed that it was ok that they sent me info but when I sent it back out, I get repremanded for it.

Answer 3

I don't think that yahoo actually reads the things being reported, they just get the report and yank it. It's a little ridiculous at times!

Answer 4

At least you weren't kicked out. Probably the person that reported you was the one in your question.

Answer 5

Don't feel bad. I got reported for answering a question (reason given, was neither a question or an answer) (WTF). Guess the individual didn't care for my answer. I appealed it but don't expect anything to come from it. Just take it with a grain of salt considering the source.

Answer 6

That's pretty terrible! They should have caught that before reporting you. Can they not read?

Answer 7

Yet these azzholes keep coming back. What a crock!
