The only way to register a complaint against a question on Yahoo Answers would be to actually post a viable response to it?
I have had two questions removed from the system for no reason other than people that want to play games. The questions were not vulgar or derogatory in any way, but Yahoo still removed thme because someone pressed the "report" button.
So maybe Yahoo Answers should only allow people who actually posted a response decide to report a question. At least it would narrow down my list of suspects. What do you think?

To Meg and Just Too: I am one of the regular participants in the LGBT section, so I will post things here because I care what my friends have to say. If I wanted a bunch of strangers posting responses, then I would go to another section.

Spyder, I can accept your critisizm of my system, but why would you have reported me?

There was a suggestion that possibly having at least 2 complaints
on a question that both responded to would be required before the
proverbial "zap"--- there's gotta be something better

Anything sounds better than the current system. I know that people have been going back in my profile and reporting my questions for no reason. The questions had already been voted on and closed and then I receive a violation report like a week later. It is rediculous.

I have no idea when, how, and if Yahoo Answers staff remove questions and/or answers. But I don't think your system sounds good.
As far as narrowing down your list of suspects making complaints to your questions and answers, there is a pretty good chance it was me.

I had an anwer removed and recieved an e-mail from Yahoo stating my answer violated policy. I read the policy and could not figure out how. Some asked about depression and how people dealt with it. I simply stated, 'Zoloft', because that is how I have handled my depression. I couldnt figure that one out. People have asked questions about Zoloft, and their questions werent removed. What is the difference?

I am still wondering what the Yahoo rules are. I had removed even RAMO answers to trolls' questions, and some of those insulting questions are still posted.
Also, why do thermos jugs keep cold things cold, but also keep hot things hot?
Also, why do boys fall in love?

Actually there is a forum for this kind of issue.
Post your complaint at the Yahoo!Answers Message boards:
