I think it's a huge coincedence that a question and answer were removed SEVERAL days after posting and ONLY after best answer was chosen.....Do you think yahoo should try to find a way to keep vindictive people from ALL OF A SUDDEN being offended after they were slighted from best answer?

or do you think yahoo is doing all they can?

I think the community moderation system is broken...and YahPoo isnt doing enough..

In some cases they dont remove violations for DAYS after they are reported, IF AT ALL.

I have 175+ violations in my watch list that have been turned in by multiple people over the past 4 WEEKS that YahPoo hasnt removed.

When links to these violations are sent to customer care... the response is " Welll.. err...ummmmmm...duhhhh..."

Some of what you describe may be going on, but I would say to you that much more of it is where the Yamster ISNT removing the stuff at the time its reported....

Perhaps, but in this case it depends on the particular question & best answer. Were violations present in both the question and the answer? Were the questioner & answerer the same person, but using different accounts?

Perhaps the violation was discovered only after the fact, or they waited for more than one report to gather "evidence" on the particular user's accounts that were involved in that particular question/answer combo (like looking at trends or multiple occurrences). I'm not sure of how the entire process works, step-by-step, so don't take me as an expert (far from it, but I am knowledgable of the rules). There are all kinds of possibilities of why the question and answers were removed after the fact, the most obvious being that it was reported near the end of the four-day cycle for providing answers, or shortly after it ended what, a minimum of four hours before U can pick a best answer.

So you be the judge. Were U either the questioner or the best answer-provider? Was there anything in the question that violated the community guidelines? Or the answer?


I think Yahoo! is trying to accommodate a lot of people and their wishes in an attempt to keep them happy (or at least not too upset) & minimize the problems for others caught in the crossfire.

What do U think?

With each and all of the volatile people who use the advice superhighway, the Yahoo website must be waiting to word their technologies to place 2+2 mutually so as that they equivalent 4, yet for some unknown reason, 2+2 is oftentimes considered as 22! this is purely much less confusing to dodge the human beings who have not have been given any clue by using potential of blocking off them! in spite of the indisputable fact that in the event that they have a solid question printed, I won't answer it because of the fact a blocked individual (pink circle w/a cut back throughout the middle) is calling for their next sufferer. they are abusers of the worst form. some call them Trolls...it particularly is a form be unsleeping for a guy or female with a hidden schedule! i wish the modern-day gadget works out & those all persons is decreased to 0 or thoroughly eradicated from the Yahoo website!

I don't think there should be a violation system. If you don't like an answer give it a thumbs down. Yes some answers that are given are just down right nasty. But it seems if you give an honest answer and some one doesn't like it they just report it. The bad part is Yahoo takes away 10 points instead of just the 2.

The whole violation system needs to be revamped!! It's grossly unfair the way it is now with stalkers going around making their victims' lives miserable and petty vindictive people reporting askers who do not choose them as "best answer."

Yahoo is not doing all they can, they're doing what's easiest. That's why I call it YaHELL.

There's definitely room for improvement. Right now I'm fighting getting 2 violation notices for the same question!

Yes, if it's been posted and best answer picked, they should have to go through some difficult process to remove the question--I've had questions removed for no apparent reason

Oh yes, Yahoo is doing all they can, at least when they aren't taking coffee breaks or breathers. I can't believe they are losing market share. Must be some vast conspiracy against them. Why heck, occasionally, you actually get a response from one of those humanoids.

They should stop giving violation notices where they don't belong. There are some pretty gross answers on here but they gotta bug me for stupid stuff while the gross stuff stays on!!

i think they should definately try to step it up a noch, but there are tons of people on yahoo, so they really can't do a whole lot.
is there anyway for us to report a bad question or answer?
if there isn't there really should be. maybe a button, like to report abuse.
its just an idea.
