I posted (merry christmas) in both fishing and hunting and had both removed because they violated policy so here's to being the bad boy of all!

The only policy you might have broken was trolling for Sea Monkeys out of season.
I don't get it...... here was a question that was posted:
"If you could have a conversation with a famous person (living or dead), whom would you choose?"
Here was one person's answer - and IT wasn't deemed offensive nor was it removed:
"The unrepentant thief crucified next to Jesus - I'd ask him if the supposed son of a supposed god squealed like a ***** as he was nailed...to the cross "
That answer WASN'T deemed offensive, and yet saying "MERRY CHRISTMAS" is offensive ??!!!
Offensive to who ???
I'm offended when people say "Holiday tree" instead of Christmas tree, I'm offended when people say "Happy Holidays" instead of Merry Christmas.....really, I am.
I am tired of being pushed around for MY beliefs,
and I've got news for you, my beliefs are shared with by the MAJORITY of people in this country, yet we the many
make concessions to the few.
The last time I checked our LAWS are BASED on the
10 Commandments
The last time I checked, not too long ago in the past most all buisnesses were CLOSED on Sunday because it was a day of faith and worship.
What is this world coming to ??
Anyway, 'tis the season.....Merry Christmas !!!
Feel free to report me if you find my answer offensive.

Merry Christmas to you too and Happy Holidays.
Yahoos worried about getting sued or something from the religious radicals out there. just like in schools today where you cant have a poster that says happy holidays or Merry Christmas because it might "offend" someone of a different religion or race.

It was probably a scrooge who was being grumpy that reported you. Why don't you try posting "Did you have a Merry Christmas?". I cannot see how that question would be a violation, and even though the category is questionable, posting to the wrong category is not an automatic violation. http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers/abuse/guidelines-03.html
Good luck :-)
Yes, I had a Merry Christmas, and hope you did as well :-)

Yeah, Don't feel bad. I got my "Merry X-mas" Q ejected too!
I will take this space to wish Ingun and all the "regulars" a Merry, Merry!
You guys/gals are "tops" in my book. I always look forward to seeing what you guys will say and talk about!
Have a good one!

Looks like Yahoo is full of those kind of crazies who think christmas is offensive and prefer it to be called a "Holiday" tree.
Anyway, I hope everyone had a great christmas and got plenty of new tackle to try out this coming spring.

Shame on you, you policy breaker you! Now go to your room and write I won't violate policy any more. 200 times.
Seriously though:
some people don't have anything better to do then go around reporting everything that they disagree with. Sorry so late Merry Christmas also to you.

don't sweat it. i've been reported for calling people idiots. considered an insult i guess and people have no sense. Its not my fault they're idiots. Of all the things to have something removed over, using the word idiot warrants a violation. seems harsh
btw Merry Christmas
