to be perfectly honest with you, i don't use foul language all that much on here, but the questions themselves weren't dirty

Yes, and apparently it's completely arbitrary, if someone just doesn't like your answer or question and reports it, it is removed without Yahoo looking at it.
I asked "customer service" a week ago on what grounds they removed a question, they replied that they would "investigate" but I never got a reply.

It probably is, you are ranting and it is the Number one DON'T in the Community guidelines. Do not use the Answers as a place to vent your frustrations or rant.
DON'T
1. Use Yahoo! Answers as a soapbox to vent your frustrations, rant, or otherwise violate the question and answer format. If you prefer to have discussions or chat with others, please use one of Yahoo!'s other community services, such as Yahoo! Groups or Yahoo! Messenger Chat Rooms.
EDIT: From what most of these people are saying about why they received their violation notices, I would say that 90% is considered chatting (What's your weight? Happy Birthday..I don't have a problem with either) Believe it or not if you DON'T answer the question 'correctly' you will get a violation notice.)

I'd gotten two violations on the other account just for asking Qs. Last one was about a family-friendly activity without any sexual innuendo, for crying out loud!

I got two last week just by asking others to wish a P&S user a happy birthday. How tacky is that!! Who would be so small minded to even report something so petty!!!

Oh, I hear ya. I got 4 on Sunday. None was offensive, and yet all that trash about child molestation gets left on here. One answer I had removed was:
Q: Which do you dislike, sex or vex?
A: I don't have a problem with either one.
I don't get it. What was wrong with my answer? So...I feel your pain.

I have. If they keep coming steadily though you have a Hater on your tail. If it is an every day thing, change your Avatar, change your nickname and then plug up your files on the edit sheet and you will have a closed network. I had to do that myself.
