LOL...I have thought that same thing several times!! They probably saw your avatar and thought, "hey this guy must be on the lookout for something. Let's give him an alert!"

It's because they are taking away 5 points from your total for asking the question. So they are alerting you of this.

What? You just asked a question? That's 5 PointS! And 2 points for me. And another 3 for you if you vote best answer!
So, you've only really spent 2 points! C,mon we all know this, and I did the math!
What was your question?
Word of advice... Lay off the CAFFEINE! Your eyes are bugging out!

somewhere in the world, there is an idiot who would attempt to sue(i don't think i spelled that right, o well) Yahoo Answers because they lost 5 points and didn't know they asked a question.
