CONSTANTLY report? I doubt anyone constantly reports.
As someone who frequently reports abuses of the guidelines, no, I don't see it as doing unpaid work for Yahoo. I think this site is an excellent idea and I want to help it be what it was intended to be, a place where people can ask questions and get answers.
The Guidelines are all necessary to that purpose. When people come here and are insulted, or read hate, or garbage, when the "questions" are all rants, and none actual questions, or "chat" or other sludge, people take their interesting questions and helpful answers away.
That lessens the quality of the site.
When I joined over a year ago, the site was full of sludge. I'm glad that most of that problem has been solved. The site is better for it, and I spend much less of my time reporting violations, and more time answering questions.
if you don't agree with the guidelines, you can go elsewhere on the web. Here's a site with no guidelines, that's otherwise like this site. (It's got nothing but chat and other sludge.)

This is a community. I report violations of the community guidelines and the yahoo terms of service because I value our community and ant to help reduce abuse. I don't need compensation and I'm sure most feel the same.
Yahoo answers is a wonderful and enjoyable format and it's sad some wish to destroy that by trolling and cloning. The community can always count on me to report violations.

The reporting system set up by Yahoo is greatly flawed. We should all contact them and suggest better alternatives.

Perhaps a flood of letters will get something done.

I think they are paid by Yahoo in one way or another. I've seen too many people who have been reported many many times but yet Yahoo sees fit not to delete their posts nor do they suspend their IDs. That is payment for their trolling and reportings like Chi Guy.

I don't think that there is an equality of reporting. The Left and the RIGHT will report each other, but not someone on their side.

No because it is a labor of love. We WANT to report those who break the rules. In a perfect world, people follow the rules they agree to WITHOUT the need to be forced.

Of course not. They aren't doing work for yahoo for free if they voluntarily do and know there is no compensation.
