Don't copy anybodys answer cause the yahoo answer people will delete you and could ban your email.

Why does the yahoo policy say you can't mimic someone's answer when you looked it up yourself?

Good question...

With the sheer number of people on here do they actually think that some people will not think and write alike??

Suppose you write something that is EXACTLY what someone else wrote word for word... only it WAS an original response (to you anyways)

Wow, Thats A Good Question....I Guess They Didn't Think Of That. Here's An Example Of That: Someone Asks The Title, Lyrics, Or Artist Of A Song. Well, Chances Are That You're Going To Get The Same Answer As Some Else, Aren't You?

The YA people should definitely allow exceptions to that rule. For example: suppose you ask a question in the science and mathematics category: how much is two plus two? One answers ‘four’. What is everybody else supposed to answer, five? There is only one correct answer! And it need not be the first person to get the correct answer that gets the ten points. You might have valid personal reasons for wanting to give the points to a newbie to encourage them to keep trying, oslt, or because the first answerer was already the top answerer for that category, etc., etc.

Yahoo monitors, are you listening? Wake up!

There's a point system in place, your spamming the board, etc etc etc

Its stupid, but if they don't do these small lil rules things, some 1 will feel cheated and some system will get abused

Maybe they want you to rewrite it in your own words.
