Y/A IS A JOKE do you agree? You might be deleted if you answer!!?

Question

Everytime you turn around you are either deleted or your answers are deleted. Y/A put up guide lines I think they should follow the rules themselves. I thought this was a free country and you have freedom of speeh? Where did that go wrong? On Y/A you will be deleted or question removed for speaking your mind. What is up with that???

Answer 1

I do believe that people on here report just to be reporting. And yes at times they that can be a pain. So just report right back when you read something you don't agree with. Y/a is not going to change so join them. Good Luck

Answer 2

Looking over the past questions of yours that have NOT been deleted, it's pretty obvious why you get deleted. You're simply not moral enough or adult enough to participate in a public discussion.

There is no reason why Yahoo should provide you with a free forum on which to lie about people whose religious beliefs you do not share.

Example: you recently challenged Wiccans to explain why they love "satin" so much, and said to atheists "Why try to put negivitive where everyone else wants positive and truly want question answered?".

If you find being deleted so disturbing, I suggest that you stop lying about others like that.

Answer 3

I learned about invisible censorship a while back, as I am a prolific writer to news papers and various weeklies. People in positions of power have controlled the media since language was invented, take the bible for example. But you can't control word of mouth, or what is talked about in private households. People are naive who think that if it doesn't get out in the general media - no-one knows about it, or are discussing it among themselves. Have you noticed how media Moguls are buying up smaller papers and weeklies? This is so they can control what is published in them. Kind of like the thought police. Absolute power corrupts, look at Conrad Black.

This is a feature of the Yahoo services. If you violate their rules they have the right to terminate your account even. If the rules state that a certain subject may not be addresses or could possibly be deemed harmful to anyone in anyway, they must protect themselves for possible lawsuits. This is understandable. When I see questions regarding how to kill someone or how to injure someone it makes me cringe. Questions such as, " If you could seek revenge on someone, how would you do it?" Or if it is offensive to God or someone's religion, then I believe it should be removed. There is no place for hate on this website. This website is intended for sharing/seeking knowledge. It isn't here for your soapbox on your moral beliefs. That's what blogs are for.

Answer 5

You may be located in the good ol' US but not everyone on this site is. They are bound by the laws of every country they operate in, so in order to avoid lawsuits they HAVE to be politically correct for EVERYONE.

In addition, they set rules that you have to abide by in order to appease everyone (not just YOU). If you don't like it, try making your own answers site and run it with your own rules. Find out what it's like to have hundreds of people pissed off at you for one slight offense and THEN make a judgment on the Y! staff.

Answer 6

who said Y/A follows the country rules

Answer 7

They do not follow their own guidelines. it would stop if they would take away the report button. You see if the majority of people who answer your question report you, you are deleted.

Answer 8

Probably you just miss-interpreted what is meant by "freedom of speech".

Answer 9

They own the site, they can run it as they wish. Not that I agree with how they are doing it.

Answer 10

Try reading the guidelines carefully. You can express a lot, if you do it carefully.
