is yahoo legally allowed to set guidelines for this site and then choose when and if they want to enforce them

I'M SURE THEY MONITOR THE QUESTIONS AND WITHDRAW THEM IF SOME ONE REPORTS IT TO BE VULGAR OR UNACCESIBLE

Its fine.  If the security certificate was issued to yahoo.com and you go to yahoo.co.uk, it'll give the the message since the site name isn't EXACTLY what is says on the certificate.

Yahoo can explain how to do this.

yahoo will update automatically unless they are running a test beta site and then you have to request it by clicking somewhere on the page they are showing.

The yahoo answers team would read the text they report, and it's up to them if they erase your question, or even disable your account to enter Yahoo Answers. \nI believe they are not very strict or anything, but you have to follow the rules, wich you can read in Yahoo Answers as well.\nDon't worry, there are always people who are intolerable, but i really believe all of your answers - what i've read - are great and informative. \nI am mexican, too.

I've gotten that same notice for simply asking for more information in order to be able to give a better reply. \n\nThe Yahoo site monitors must have some kind of really bizarre double standards for what's acceptable and what isn't. I wish they'd get their acts together and delete some of the racist garbage "questions," which are clearly meant as slurs. \n\nInstead, they delete innocuous questions and send out violation notices for things that are well within their own guidelines. It may be completely innocent on their parts, but it sure makes them look like closet racists and bigots.

It is also an issue as to who decides what sites are inappropriate

If by Yahoo website you mean your site is hosted at Yahoo, then it is fine. What is against the TOS is only when you put in one page both Yahoo YPN ads and Google Adsense ads. Google Adsense's TOS does not say anything about where the website should be (and shouldn't be) hosted

I don't know how you can get Yahoo to do anything, they pretty much have their own plan of action. However, you can persuade them to do something like answer abuse reports.  \n\nI don't also know how you can get them to answer ALL abuse reports but I do know that they take action on them.  Some of the abuse reports I've sent have been actioned on and those questions have been removed already. You can see this if you put the question on your watchlist or if you posted an answer to that question you want deleted, you will see in your answer list that it's been removed.

well all anyone has to do is click on the report abuse thing and you get one.  I once got one for a question and it wasn't against anything, just I guess some one with a different political opinion got pissed and clicked it.\n\nand they are guidelines, not rules :P lol

You may need to adjust your security settings. Yahoo may restrict some of the sites you are trying to access.

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.
