WHY is Yahoo deleting so many harmless questions?!
Question: This has happened twice today. I've answered someone's question- this last one about Heath Ledger- and I wrote a huge reply and when I was done, I clicked submit, and it said, Question removed. I hate that! Do you guys think that's even fair?

no i dont, its happened to me also! i also hate that questions get deleted even after you give a best answer for it, THAT happened to me tonight! arrgh
because they suck!!!!!!!!!
I hate when people do that. But I think the main reason is that they think people won't answer it, so they just delete it. Oh well, that's life.

"Chatting" questions get removed straight away, but offensive ones stay for days while they're "investigated".
It's total bullsheet.
U know I hear u loud and clear... I dont know I got a VO for one of my answers too .. Pisses me off .. No its not fair.. dang straight its not fair..
I don't think it's fair at all.
It is because of three reasons
#1 violates the TOS
#2 the writer removed it
#3 people complained and it got removed
Item three is the worst of the bunch, because I have found that questions and answers can be deleted that shouldn't be and in no way violated anything other then someone sensibilities.
I suspect, there are only a few people at Yahoo monitoring all this and are very busy, so they just remove on someones say so without reading what is a violation.
I have had answers removed and one question. I usually send an email asking why. I always get a canned answer back. Out of the 100 or so answers removed, I have had 1 reinstated.
That's life. Sometimes it's not fair.

I know EXACTLY what you mean, that has hapened to me lots of times, and I have had best answer removed too. WE could do with a version of YA uncensored by Yahoo police. Any offers anyone?
