They could ban her and others a new ID would still have the same IP address if she is using the same PC. They are just to lazy to do so
As to Kim, I find her kind of funny. To be honest (even though I was personally attacked by her in a question) I feel bad for her. I suspect she is either an older woman, likely left by her husband for a younger woman and now at home alone and bitter. Or a young child, in her teens stuck in an abusive home, lead by Conservative father who may be sexually abusing her. She is trying to please Daddy who only sees her as an object by posting these questions.
I think that Yahoo could step in, and get the poor thing some help.

AND this Kim (was not me :) is not following the community guidelines. Harassment is not part of the plan. If the Y! sensors could eliminate the fishing for a good time bunch I would be relieved. U'll never dump the trash coming your way just sift thru it. Report the earthworms who are obviously insulting and ignoramous. Chances are look at her stuff and you are not the first. Add that to the report. Somedays they miss a few. For some reason Fridays are fright nite on here. And they have no clue to change selections, staying on Politics annoying those of us who genuinely exchange info not phone numbers.
Good luck.
* I have no problem reporting her as I read her material. It is trolling. Plain and simple. I could only use violation of guidelines with the insults. They need to read her again and
check it out. Hope it helps. :) Stay on other categories or My Space for that!

Yahoo doesn't.Kim is on here every day with a new profile.
Her answers and questions are so far out there and over the top I think they are hysterical and hilarious.
You really shouldn't take her attacks personally,I've seen her do much worse.If you feel offended,report abuse.
Best thing to do when you don't like a troll is to not give it attention.Most are in it for that.
I can't help myself,think she's hilarious

I have been insulted and I have insulted-I admit it. But really, who cares what anyone says. I have had emails (from homosexuals and Muslims primarily) who are so angry that I cannot even believe it. They report me and I just laugh. I don't report anyone for anything. People take this stuff way too seriously sometimes. This site is good for gathering information but some people use it as a chat room. Also, some just want to hear themselves "talk." I have been guilty of that too and log off when I catch myself doing it. Also, some people just want a pat on the back and reinforcement for their beliefs. Some do it for fun. So don't take anything too seriously. If someone calls you a "poo poo head," who cares.

Yeah, when I mentioned the fact that I have a BA in Spanish with a minor in German, she said that I should get a "real" education. When I discredited her and told her that I somehow doubted that she had ever been on a college campus, she boasted that she was a summa *** laude graduate at a university and had a master's degree. If she's REALLY so educated, though, then why do her posts seem to suggest otherwise?

I totally agree with you. It seems like 50 percent of the people on here are jerks. I think they must forget that just because it's on the internet they are still talking to real people with real feelings. I guess that's what I like to hope anyway because I hope half the population aren't just mean hurtful jerks. If someone is real mean on here especially to people who are genuinely asking for help I report them. I don't care if it's being a "tattle-tale" it's the only way for people on here to face any kind of repercussions. Glad that there are other people that feel the same way!

Cathy nailed it on the head.
Some people are so miserable that they only way they can think of entertaining themselves is to be negative and hurtful towards anyone and everyone they can.
They don't bother me in the slightest because I know life has been giving them a harder time than I ever could.

I have wondered that myself. But I guess if they are banned from Y/A all they have to do is create a new name and come right back in. People like Kim are so miserable within themselves and their own lives they take it out on others. They want others to be miserable too. As hard as it is to do, just ignore them. Or, if you cant ignore it, report them for abuse of Y/A.

Because it likes to be offensive.
It was using a different account about an hour ago. It must have got suspended and created a new account to troll with.

Because it is fun to troll, and a lot of the time Yahoo! Answers questions are really stupid and simple and have obvious answers.
