Why? I don't see any reason for the limit...

WE should be the ones to decide how many peope we're able to keep up with (and pretty much anything else in this life, for that matter). If anyone feels they prefer to have less contacts, it's their choice. Why can't I choose to have as many as I like?

I can't use my kitten, or any other, avatar here. It's a glitch, this thing has been like that for weeks :(
Welcome back, K! :)

There are a lot of things at Y!A that don't make sense. Number of contacts is just one of them...
You've received some funny answers to this one. Raji and The Apple. Man, LOL :-). Sorry I can't thumbs-up, everyone. I am only a Level-oner :-).
Thanx for adding me back, Moon :-).
Hope all is well with you :-). Take good care :-)
May I ask though, before I go, where is the kitten avatar? I miss her :-(.
EDIT: Awwww, thanx Moon. I missed you and all of my contacts too :-) :-).

It would be nice if you could have more then 200 contacts as there are a lot of great people way more then 200 people on this site that's for sure. But then again maybe Yahoo realizes that we would have a difficult time keeping up with more then 200 contacts as even 200 contacts can be difficult to keep up with.

Spiritually? NO it makes NO sense at all. Logistically? YES. Yahoo has only SO much bandwidth allocated to Answers, without having to make a further major investment in servers or impacting OTHER areas of Yahoo, decreasing THEIR available bandwidth. In other words you can ONLY fit 10 pounds of manure in a 10 pound sack, any more and you risk breaking open the sack.

Moon, I think the problem is that Yahoo can't even keep up with what's going on already. LOL
I think Yahoo just decided that 200 was a nice rounded number... Just like stars and all that good stuff.

Wow, yea that sucks. When I had my first account which was a Top Contributor in R&S (which got UNFAIRLY zapped months ago), my 200 contacts were full and I was annoyed because I always found interesting people that I wanted to have in my contact list.

If god exists, i imagine it far extra probable that he has a sick, twisted, black humorousness. Spiritually speaking, i imagine this is taken under consideration mandatory to have a sturdy humorousness, yet i do not see the attraction of having a "sparkling" one. those who delight themselves on having a "sparkling" humorousness are sanctimonious and stressful, no longer to point lacking out on each of the sturdy stuff. i love sensible, dry humor it is not any longer too grimy and not too sparkling. Edit: "...i imagine you do too." Uh, the position'd you get that concept, sparky? You interior my head now? in order that that you understand, i'm no longer quite keen on folk telling me what i imagine. yet thanks for proving my element about sanctimonious a$$holes who imagine they're better than all of us else because they describe their prudishness and sexual hangups as "having a sparkling humorousness". a bath is an exceedingly stupid analogy for humor, by utilizing the way. You bathe for the point of having sparkling, so of direction sparkling water is larger. Humor is for the point of creating human beings laugh, and there is not any longer something inherently extra laugh-inducing about shallow, bluenose humor. in truth, gritty humor, in my adventure, is commonly plenty funnier, because it digs deeper into the human adventure and psyche. It tells the truth. i don't think of i'd be very sturdy at my interest it i did not keep in mind that, and that i don't understand why human beings like you cringe from it. i come across it humorous that you presume to inform me what type of humor i love, pondering in case you've been to study something i have written, it might want to probable make your ft curl. might want to I be perfect in assuming that you're a Christian? if so, and also you imagine your god has a "sparkling" humorousness, then I propose you pass and browse your Bible back, honey.

In a spiritual context, it makes no sense. If we have more than 200 friends, we should have the freedom to spread our enlightenments on God's Word to ALL of them, without them having to hunt us down.

Well, we can only have 200 contacts because HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JACK!!!!!!!
I suppose Yahoo can only allot you so much space. Some people--such as Jack B, for example
(Who has a birthday today--HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JACK!!!)
--would most likely have thousands of friends, and require pages and pages of space to keep them all.
So in conclusion, I'd just like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JACK!!!!

I have over 20 and I think that is too many, especially since I never contact anyone and if I do, they never e-mail back.

Because they had to set a limit someplace?
I didn't even know that there IS a limit.
