It seems that you can be reported for whatever reason and receive a notice. Basically if a person feels offended (for whatever reason) or just doesn't like the answer (reply) they can report it. That's just the way it is.\n\n(there are questions/replies that shouldn't be posted to begin with, but then you get into the nasty area of censorship)

That is a very good question.  I have had people send comments reference something I posted only to find  they aren't accepting messages when trying to reply.  Usually they are "mean" comments that are sent.  I am guessing some don't have the nerve to say what they have to say and hear the reaction.

I'd double check the TOS, read my question again and see if anything feel under what they would deam a violation.  If you don't think it did, or you were misinterpreted, you can always e-mail the answers team y_answrs_team@yahoo.com and ask they about it personally.  They may not be able to repost the question, but they'd let you ask it again since they know its a misunderstanding.  Perhaps it was a particular wording you used and they can help you to word that part better.\n\nI've delt with them several times and they always get back to me within a day or two on my question and are in general really nice and fun to work with.

Hey almost got kicked off for asking questions like that...it's called chatting.  Some people are so f---in stupid!  They wanna kick people off for no reason.  Be careful!  And I hope you have a good holiday!

The Violation of chatting is about the only one that seems to get results. I have seen the F word the B word the S word\nand a few letters in between used openly and have yet to see one being removed. I am beginning to suspect that Y/A is not as Neutral as it should be.

Chatting, definitely! I have gotten so many violations for chatting! Almost 75% of my violations was because of that!\n\nYou have a great day too! :-)

That's because of the bloody beating part I guess. Maybe someone reported you. Someone once reported me for an answer that wasn't really a violation, they just did it for fun. I'd write to Yahoo! Answers. There's a way to do it from that email they sent you.

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.

hmm... don't know.  When I clicked on the link, the question was removed.  But anything having to do with snapping people's underwear sounds kinda mean to me.  (poor farmers).  I saw the next question though and thought it said Saint Fu.  That didn't mean anything.  Either way, it's a lot better than seeing the dirty jokes.

In the e-mail itself, the actual violation would have been mentioned - but you have avoided mentioning it ! If someone had reported your violation, one of the Yahoo! moderators would have naturally warned you about it - while deleting the concerned offensive Question or Answer !  \nPlease read the Yahoo! Answers Beta Community Guidelines fully - and you will know what all are considered 'violations' !

I am not trying to be mean, but that's funny.. spam and advertising?  Once there was no question so I asked "whats the question" and got reported for "not a question not answer"  I am still laughing.. of course it wasn't an answer because there was no question.. you can't figure Yahoo.. I would be pleased to argue with you normally..

Yeah, it's gotten boring since the Yahoo Police are sending us violation notices all the time. I'm almost afraid to ask or answer questions because I know I'll have violations in my email the next day. Even the innocent answers, like this one, get reported. Go figure!

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.

Yes, every once and a while you will see some random statements on the question board directed at someones response. Ive looked back at a few profiles and followed their questions and sure enough some jerk was answering every question with horrid comments. The good thing is that I think the Yahoo Answers Team is on the case. I know that if I see any more of them they will get filed for abuse before this gets so bad that Yahoo has to push a bunch of restrictions on the rest of us to control a few twisted morons. Check out the letter board, there are some interesting comments on there. Great Question you definitely hit the nail on the head with the tolerance. You shouldn't be beaten up at every turn for you opinion. Best Wishes! J

I'd like to know what "reason" they gave you for the deletion. All it takes is one person to not like your answer and boom....you get violated. I tried writing to the YA "power people"....surprise, surprise it doesn't help. Never heard from them.

they did with me & I went to the bottom of the page to "Tell us What you think" & voiced my opinion...it was a very petty report by a petty questioner....it wasn't abusive or lude....he just didn't feel like I answered his question....i haven't seen him on here since.  this is odd, i bet if u look hard enough, you can find oout who reported u & why & issue a grievance to yahoo.  good luck
