I doubt they did it specifically to deny you the points. You never know the reason, and it's a little ridiculous to jump to that conclusion. (I know you'll think this answer is MEAN, but you seriously need to grow up if you think it's all about you.)

It said the questioner removed it. There were two answers, I don't know what they were but maybe the questioner didn't like them?

you can delete your own question, and re-ask it.  you may spend more points that way (I don't think you getthe points back if you delete a question you asked).

I agree I have asked simple questions that got deleted just because someone didn't like that I didn't agree with their point-of views

Its more than likely to just get the points..they don't care what they are writing...I was guilty of it and still do sometimes to the really stupid questions but I try and give as best an answer as I can!

Exactly what mrscm said. When you see people answer with "I Dunno" or "No clue but thanks for the 2 points" then more than likely they are in it for points...points that don't really give you anything but bragging rights. If the points were gone, this site would probably shrink to half the size that it is user wise. I on the other hand, not only enjpy answering questions, but also love reading other peoples points of views on various different topics. Yes, I always hope that in some way my answer will be helpful or at least interesting.\n\nAlso, I wonder how many people actually go back to the questions they have answered to see if there was any follow up responses from the asker as to what they said. I've seen so many askers follow up with comments/questions about the answer someone gave, yet noone goes back to see unless they are chosen as a best answer. Then they will go just to see which answer was chose as theirs.

I asked if anyone knew someone who lives in a certain place and they deleted my question... what's up with that?

You must have hurt someones feeling.  I have had questions that they have pulled.  The questions were regarding their policies.  Don't bother e-mailing them either..You'll just get a BS mass generated response..I will probably get a violation for this post because it complains about them.  But, whatcha gonna do??  This Q&A thing is addicitve!!

I have had this happen also.  It depends on the time of ay sometimes and how fast questions are being posted.  Sometimes they don't stay up long enough for people to read them.

There are trolls on Yahoo answers and they have multiple Id's and just like to report people and people that they do not agree with is meat. I had my account deleted for to many violations with 50,000 points, I finally got to the right person that restored this account and am back in business, it was quite a hassle really and these same trolls are still here. I don't think that the way Yahoo is doing this reporting thing is fair and should be changed before many more questions such is yours are deleted. Even losing ten points is uncalled for in your case as it was mine.

No, I had one deleted this morning that was reported Sunday night and it was resolved.  Lost 10 points....

Yes, I've had 3 of my answers deleted from yahoo. This happened 2 weeks ago and these were questions I answered 2 months ago. They claimed I was "chatting" in reality I was voicing my opinion.

They are BORED! Its their way of fun, and yeah, they are becoming WAY too strict, they are deleting that shouldn't be deleted while questions that SHOULD HAVE BEEN deleted didn't, whats up with that?! Answer: Yahoo is get weirder...

I logged onto Yahoo Answers\nFortunately, my computer connection was good\nUnfortunately, a lot the questions were people wanting other people to do their math homework for them\nFortunately, there are a few of us who don't spoonfeed math answers\nUnfortunately, a few trolls came along\nFortunately, there's a report feature\nUnfortunately, Yahoo has no clue how to handle all the violation reports they get\n\n...I could go on, but what would be the point?

You have to start a new account to use Answers:(\nI've had some suspended, but I could still use the mail if I wanted to, and others just completely deleted.
