Although I show no record of you ever posting messages here an admin has to recieve numerous complaints about your activities before he/she decides to delete your account they don't delete it on the whim or without reason but depending on the circumstances on which were banned you may or may not the right to appeal the decision by using the link below.

Yahoo is incompetent. Their basic policy is: Someone complains, delete it. Reason? Chatting & Personal Communications. The site has been bombarded by questions like yours "why did i get this bs violation?" or they e-mail them back. Nothing works and never will. Yahoo is full of morons like the ones that report legitimate questions.

Go to the Yahoo account deletion page and login with your username and password. Then, to confirm once and for all that you want to delete everything associated with your login profile, enter your password again and click the button that says ‘Terminate this Account.’\n\nYour account is now gone.

Look under help on the webpage your email is at...if your able to type in a question, type in the question you asked here. I only have experience in hotmail and yahoo so I can't give specific instructions...but that's how I figured it out the first time. They'll give you a link to click onto a page that has a form you fill out to delete your account.

You'll have to speak with a Yahoo! representative about it personally. My guess is you may have a difficult time recovering the account, but good luck anyways.

I think sleep, but right know I am thinking about how pissed off I am that they closed my account, I think I remember you saying you had your account closed once how long did they make you wait before you could get it back, or did you just stay with a new one? Anyways I am really pissed off and am not going to be on here for awhile so if you get bored and want to email me you can at vamp7816@yahoo.com, bye.

go to the Account Deletion page @ https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user,it will ask you to sign in if you aren't already, and then confirm the deletion by entering your password and clicking yes. Remember that this deletes access to things that require you to have an account.

Yes! actually but you will need to contact either Yahoo or MSN depending which one you deleted and you will have to give them your detail's(if you can remember)them as to when you 1st joined up...\ni have been able to do this and if they say it is too long ago,then you will have to get a new account but it may be reversable so contact them 1st that would be my option as it worked for me..\nhope i have helped from Chrystal :)

Just keep blocking and reporting them to Yahoo and hopefully they can help you with your problem.  You really should contact Yahoo and tell them about your problem and they should be able to help.\nHope this helps!

Wow, I hope you can get a hold of someone at Yahoo. That exact same thing happened to my roomate. He forwarded a phishing email to report it and got his account closed too! Not on Yahoo, but another email service. After writing a complaint letter about it he got the account back in a week or two.\n\nWhat are you supposed to do???? How stupid is that~!
