I don't. But there are some hardcore trolls who report questions and answers as "abuse" simply because they don't agree with the opinion, and simply because "they can". Yahoo's reporting system leaves a lot to be desired. They are suffering serious growing pains!
What most do not realize is that Yahoo does not investigate the issues that are reported. It's all on an auto-responder system. An "abuse" is reported, an auto email is sent to the reporter and the abuser, they say they will investigate (they don't) they invite the abuser to "appeal" but never respond to an email of appeal, then the "offending" question or answer is automatically deleted. By a robot! No human is reading and exercising discretion over this process. For the answer that quoted it was to be "fair" ... no, it's not fair when no one is even reading the reports.

When someone insults my intelligence by inferring that the bible (insert name of self proclaimed holy book) is the word of some mystical "god" then i feel at liberty to speak out against such non-sense, which will likely result in my post being deleted.
I agree with the other poster - there is no free speech on YA!
Ever heard of "Freedom of Religion"? yes, what about "Freedom FROM Religion". Over 5 billion of the worlds 6 billion people do not even have the time of day for yet another 'prophet' like mohammed or jesus... yes thats right 5 billion people dont believe in either one of them :-) I think you will find the majority is right..

We don't have freedom of speech on Yahoo. Each of us, before we officially create a screen name, agree to their terms of service. Those terms specify what we are and are not permitted to say, and that what constitutes a "violation" is left up to the sole, absolute discretion of Yahoo.
We give up our right to free speech as soon as we agree to a contract that takes it away from us.

I am a Christian, and have been reported over the crappiest things! Unjustly I assure you.
I have only reported one person for threatening me personally.
And I was ready to blame the Muslims!

You know why they're doing it right? To keep the peace. Or something resembling peace anyway. That's not wrong. If they didn't, you'd see a heck alot of alot more hate spewing cruel posts than you do. Like the terrible ones posted about Muslims lately.

Yes there might be freedom of speech, religious or otherwise. But that does not mean I have to listen to it. To stop religions from spreading is to catch the wind.

I never violate anyone's free religious speech, but there's something that is called respect. I don't like it when anyone speeks like garbagge about my religion.

I don't know why they do it.... I would love to be enlighten on all beliefs, perhaps you should e-mail them in protest, and seek some answers.
