Is it so hard for them to accept that maybe those people are disliked on an individual basis, just like the VT killer?

Hello my dear friend. :-) ♥♫♥♫ I would be extremely frustrated if that happened to me, and I support you in taking whatever action you can with Y!A to prevent such abuse of the TOS. However, don't hang your hopes and happiness on Y!A, as they a pretty sure to disappoint (or they'll take a long time to give you satisfaction). If I was in your situation, I think I would change my name, avatar and profile (on the same account... once it is reinstated) to something that my report-bot can't recognise, and make my Q&A private temporarily. I would email my favorite contacts with the changes, so they could still recognise me, and give them a brief description of why. (You did that for us when you started this new little account, so thank-you for that effort ♥ xo). Perhaps I would block whoever was reporting me (if I knew for certain)... or I might disable "adding contacts" (possibly). I would also go ahead with getting Y!A to do something more to protect my account, as you are trying to do. I figure that making changes to my own account gives me some of the power to fix the problems in my own life (and hence prevent depression... that old feeling of powerlessness). It is an agony of suspense to wait for other people to fix things... It you want something done, you do need to do it yourself, even if that means changing your Y!A "identity". You're being pro-active, and that's a good thing. Keep on trying to make changes, both the changes that you can personally make, and also the changes that you can stimulate within Y!A, through affirmative action. Hope things work out better for you soon. I love you "beans for brains"... I don't know why you call yourself that, lol. You're not stupid at all, but sometimes you are too hard on yourself. ♥♫

Do you mean targeted because now some people might have a negative opinion of East Asians? If that is what you are referring to, I would say those people's fears are legitimate. Unfortunately, our nation has a history of racism borne of fear and ignorance. However, that does not mean one should stop living his or her life. The best you can do is to go on with confidence and find work you love. Fear must not rule.

Well it is apparent, though sad. That all the kids that are popular for down troding the un-fortionate, the not so rich, the not so cool kids are now being afraid and scared. Un-fortionately this gives them something else to use because now all a bully has to say is that quiet kids been making a list of names and the quiet kid now has a rep he dosnt want and dosnt need and his future for the most part is ruined.

Racism is an issue in the USA at this time. Apology for slavery etc. They have a right to be really concerned over this issue.
