My favorite football team- The Packers- are struggling right now. So in fun I posted a comment on yahoo answers that said "Go Packers!-- to at least a 5-11 record this year" and someone turned that in as a violation. What did I violate?

You offended a fellow fan probably...The way you said it probably made them think you were putting down or trash talking the Packers...You might have said up front that you were a Packer fan...Then you probably wouldn't have gotten a violation...

Doesn't seem like much at all. Maybe someone had a problem with you before the answer and used the opportunity to get you in some trouble.
As for the prediction itself, I think it was valid. It isn't a stretch and surely isn't rude to say a team with 8 wins can drop to 5. A great example of something like this happening recently was the Bucs. They went from 11 wins in '05 to 4 wins in '06.

I don't know, maybe someone REALLY hates the packers. If someone turns you in, I don't know if Yahoo even looks to see if there really is a violation. I got turned in myself a while back, and still haven't figured out why.

People do it because they can't take the heat of the answers.
I also think it was football chick who turned me in on a violation notice for a answer I posted about her New Orleans internship.
Children! You are all children! Can't take the heat!

i've got had completely decent questions and solutions bumped off, too. i think of it has plenty to do with the Elections and Politics categories. they're so busy and there are maximum of people who will checklist for something that they don't even evaluation them. I continuously contest them, yet i think of they only settle for the violations. a great sort of folk on indexed below are in touch with one yet another via email and that they only tell their acquaintances to checklist specific people each and all of the time.

I get violations all the time for nothing. Some people are just jackasses.

It was obviously someone who doesn't agree with the two things either the record that you posted the team or just both.
And who ever did it was wrong, unless you did something else.

I see Nothing Offensive to your Comment so He might be a Bears Fan.

nothing sometimes people just report others just because and Yahoo doesn't read your answer to see if it's offensive they just automatically assume it is and delete your answer and send you that violation email
