The Man from Del Monte he says
they said your reply was humorous, I think they love you really.
(When people say I'm funny - I suspect they don't mean I have a good sense of humour !). .... and remember eat at least 5 tins of fruit a day.

Lucky of you, you've proven the existence of the Customer Care Abuse Team, they are like the Men In Black... Oops perhaps they are going to delete my answer for being so funny... It is a conspiracy, help!!!!

No, it just shows that we have to stick to the rules, even when we don't agree with them. I objected to having two answers deleted as non-answers , and pointed out that the question was paedophilic (by the way I wasn't abusive) but I was just reminded of the rules.

Wow! That's amazing! You got an answer from the Y!A Customer Care Team. They must really like you.
I had thought that they were just mythical creatures who didn't actually exist.

ahh, well, I have noticed that on a UK answer forum similar to this that they are quite the serious. And, I might add, refreshingly mature in their questions/answers--and courteous. but, I guess I'm just a crude, happy-go lucky American, 'cuz I keep comin' back here, with my smartass answers, from time to time. Keep laughin' !

At least you got a reply - I never got any answer to my query except to quote the question and deleted answer. No explanation, nothing, so count yourself lucky. Well done.

What were allowed no humour, jeez I think its time to get out of here if that's the case, that reply has to be one of the funniest things I've seen though.

I would be very upset too. That was a very clever answer you were uniquely qualified to answer. That is the saddest example of a violation I've ever seen.
