I don't think users should report other users....I think yahoo should handle that if they don't want this going on.  But I do agree with you....It would be nice to be able to say 'hey im single in w/e and blah blah blah' and find someone for free.....the way it should be....this kinda gos along the lines of charging for a bottle of water....that just drives me nutz....although I pay it....but water should be Free or if bottled close to free....not a dollar, or two dollars ect.\n\nWell the only thing against your viewpoint - Yahoo obviously has a personals website and wants users to use that website so they can make money.  Plain and simple that is the only reason why this type of action taken by yourself is not allowed.  Yahoo wants to put money in their pocket.  Otherwise if they did not have a personals pay site or one at all they would have a section on here for each area in each state so you could do this.

If you are referring to Yahoo Answers, no, it does not cost anything to use this service. It is totally free.

I have never heard of that happening before nor do I recall ever hearing that from Microsoft. It sounds to me like someone is trying to scam you. I use both Yahoo and Messenger at the same time and I don't get forced off of one or the other.

Your answer is here:\n\nSUNNYVALE, Calif., Mar 22, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) --  Yahoo! Inc. (Nasdaq: YHOO) today introduced in the United States a new public beta of its instant messaging suite, Yahoo!(R) Messenger with Voice (http://messenger.yahoo.com), with enhanced PC-based calling capabilities.(1) With Phone Out, consumers in the U.S. can now make low-cost Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls using their PC to call traditional or mobile phones in more than 180 countries.(2) Calls within the U.S. and to more than 30 countries can be made for two cents a minute or less.(3) Additionally, U.S. consumers can receive calls on their PC from traditional and mobile phones for $2.99 a month or $29.90 a year with the Phone In feature. Phone In gives people a virtual presence in their city of choice, and wherever they travel, their phone number will follow them. \n\nThe new PC-based calling features were initially introduced to international users in December 2005, and will continue to be rolled out in additional localized versions. The enhanced Yahoo! Messenger with Voice features will also be introduced into Yahoo!'s co-branded Internet access services, including AT&T Yahoo! High Speed Internet, in the coming months. \n\n"Yahoo!'s top priority is to provide a stellar communications service through a variety of easy, fun and inexpensive ways to stay connected with others around the world," said Brad Garlinghouse, vice president, Communications Products, Yahoo! Inc. "We look forward to further incorporating voice features into Yahoo!'s global services, from communications to search, to help simplify and improve the Internet experience for our hundreds of millions of users around the world." \n\nStaying in Touch is Easy \n\nThe new PC-based voice calling capabilities join the suite of communications solutions in Yahoo! Messenger with Voice including text instant messaging (IM), PC-to-PC calling, e-mail, mobile text messaging, photo sharing and video. New enhancements to the service include: \n\n-- Phone Out: U.S. audiences can easily stay in touch with their  friends and family in more than 180 countries across the  Europe, Asia and the Americas, with low-cost calling from  their PC to traditional phones and mobile phones.

Specific calling rates can be  found at: http://voice.yahoo.com. \n\n-- Phone In: The Phone In service gives U.S. audiences the  ability to receive calls on their PC from traditional and  mobile phones. For $2.99 a month or $29.90 a year, people can  select a personal phone number, and receive incoming calls at  no additional charge. For instance, New York residents, who  have friends and family in London, are able to choose a local  London-based phone number. When remote friends and family make  calls to the personal number, they will be charged for placing  a local phone call to that phone number. People can choose to  have multiple phone numbers, and wherever they travel, their  phone numbers will follow them. In the beta service,  country-based phone numbers are initially available in France,  the United Kingdom, and the United States with additional  country-based numbers available in the coming months. \n\n-- Free Voicemail: People will now be able to take advantage of a  free voicemail service with both their PC-to-PC inbound calls  and Phone In calls. If a call is missed, whether from a PC,  traditional phone or mobile phone, people can easily retrieve  the message at no additional cost. Additionally, Yahoo! Mail  now includes useful links to Yahoo! Messenger with Voice,  enabling people to easily check their voicemail directly from  Yahoo! Mail. \n\n-- Contact Search Bar: The new Contact Search Bar provides a fast  way to find and quickly connect with friends and family. As  people type their friends' names, Yahoo!

Yahoo is launching the VOIP service around March 2006. Yahoo’s Phone Out VoIP service will let users make calls from their PC to non-VoIP enabled traditional landlines and cell phones located in over 180 countries. Calls within the United States will cost $0.01 per minute. Calls to 30 other countries such as Australia, France, Germany and Japan will be priced at less than $0.02 per minute. Yahoo will also make prepaid call plans available, priced in increments of $10 and $25.\n\nThe Phone In VoIP service will let users receive calls from traditional landlines or cell phones on their PC and will be priced at $2.99 per month, or £29.90 per annum. Users subscribed to Yahoo Phone In will be able to choose a phone number in a different country so calls originating from the country will be charged at a local rate. Subscribers will also be able to select multiple phone numbers for use when traveling.\n\nThe Phone Out and Phone In VoIP services will be made easily accessible from a toolbar that will let the user send instant messages, send email and SMS, as well as make calls. A beta of both Yahoo VoIP services will be made available in Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Singapore and Spain soon.
