Violation Notice: Is my answer legit?

Question

If the majority of you say it´s not, I will apologise.
Question: Whats more shameful? Democrats plan to surrender, or the republicans wanting to win the war on terror?
Deleted Answer: The most shameful is your total ignorance.
Reason of Violation: Insulting Other Participants

I based my answer on this widely held misconception that 'Democrats plan to surrender'.
How can a third party 'surrender' in a civil war, when they are not citizens of that country?

Answer 1

sounds fine to me. here I'm violated for asking what kind of tea people like.

Answer 2

There are malicious people on here who will report you out of spite alone

incidentally, can I please ask EVERYONE to complain about Violations when they are not warranted.?
A lot of people have been deleted recently after working very hard to get up to a level where they can ask and answer unlimited.

If you get violated for something that is NOT even close to being offensive, please report it with the email header "harassment by another user" and state that you do not deserve this violation. Say that it is harassment and you want the matter investigated and the REPORTERS account suspended.

I will be reporting EVERY one from now on

Lets stop the mindless yobs destroying our work

Just one point though. If you deserve the Violation - take it on the chin !

Answer 3

that answer sound fine to me. maybe you should have said it nicer though. like explain it, just like you did up there: (I based my answer on this widely held misconception that 'Democrats plan to surrender'. How can a third party 'surrender' in a civil war, when they are not citizens of that country?) that should work.

Answer 4

I think the answer was fine. Could have been worded a little more nicely. Something like - What is really shameful is the total ignorance of the people that believe.....

You get the point I'm sure

Answer 5

But you directly attacked the questioner. You can't do that around here. Sorry, that's the rules. If you had worded it differently you wouldn't have gotten the violation.

"What's more shameful is that you don't really understand what's going on" is less insulting. And then you should have elaborated on your opinion. In the eyes of yahoo, your answer was just as offensive as insulting their mother.

Answer 6

Ugh each physique is basically reporting issues for no reason, basically purposely being assholes. just to be a sensible ***, somebody will probably flag this question and this answer. My previous account became deleted. I have been given an e mail asserting i've got violated the TOS, and it became SUSPENDED. It stated something like "in case you like to allure, e mail ____". So I emailed it. i'm getting a respond asserting that they desperate to "re-evaluation my case", and that i'm now BANNED from Y!A, without threat of allure or something. by no skill a proof in any respect. Ridiculous.

Answer 7

I guess they think that Dems want to surrender by pulling up their stakes and leaving the state of Iraq to become another muslim extremist outpost?
That would be my guess on it.... Of course since I get violated ona fairly regular basis I'm guessing Yahoo doesn't think I'm a good judge of this subject.

Answer 8

Perhaps if you had elaborated on what you meant when you used the phrase "total ignorance".

Most people are going to take what you type literally. They think that if you use the word "ignorant", your intention is to be disrespectful to them. Rarely will you get by with that word in your answer. Rarely.♥

Answer 9

You are right on ! got a violation notice saying the same thing. The question was "how do you say -"You are stupid in French?"

My answer was You are stupid. Oh, well.

Answer 10

well i've gotten my answers taken away for a heck of a LOT LESS. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING U CAN DO ABOUT INSULTING WHOMEVER U INSULTED SO U MIGHT AS WELL SUCK IT UP AND go on with other answers and ?s

Answer 11

Legit. I personally can't see where you have violated anyone. After all we are suppose to have free speech.
