Isn't it an important question worthy of a simple response?

I was making a point and discovered that a question has to a have a certain number of characters to be posted. That is a real control issue with this forum.

It has nothing to do with censorship interference. If you knew a little more about computers and computer language you would understand this.

Each web page is encrypted with computer coded pre-sets that recognize specific formats and responses and the script writer tries to encrypt the page to fit the most commonly used and recognizable responses.

Likewise, when writing computer coded scripts the average script writer takes into consideration the standard guidelines for specific types of grammar. In other words, a standard question in English that fits into the guidelines of normal grammar usually has at least a specific number of letters in it. The encrypted codes respond to questions being typed in using the normal set guidelines for grammar.

It is not censorship. It is because these guidelines were originally encrypted to recognize normally phrased questions. Other web sites that allow feedback may not have such grammar guidelines in place, but Yahoo does.

If you had asked 'Are You?' the codex would have recognized it as a standard question.

Don't you have anything better to do with your time?
