Is there a question here?  If not your question will likely be removed.

That has happened to me a couple of times, and it seems like they are the questions that require the *most* effort and thought.\n\nI did that to a question, submitted the answer, and even though everything shows I answered the question, it never showed up, did not get deleted, just floated off into cyberspace somewhere (?).  The question wasn't deleted, and it shows up on my answered question list, and it tells me I have already answered that question.  How weird is that?

You're correct. Your question will be highlighted after it's been open a few days to remind you to look at it and select the best answer. That way it's easier for you to find the questions that you need to check, especially for those who have asked a lot of questions.

You need to wait 24 hours before you select an answer as the best one to your question. Then you have 6 days to select the best answer to your question. If you don't it automatically goes to a vote, and which answer is voted on by the most people as the best answer gets selected.

You can do what everyone suggested and report it.  The question will be removed and the user might be banned.   That still won't stop them from re-registering under a new name & asking the same questions.  Best advice: IGNORE IT!  Some people just enjoy getting a rise out of others.  I don't respond to questions like that at all & reporting them is pointless.

It depends on the question and what time you ask it.  Do it at lunch and your more likely to see repsonses.  I usally get anwered right away.  So far, all my questions have been aswered.

yes, they do not post the questions that are going to be deleted (you can see them on your list, but they are not on the main page). tip... if this ever happens remove them yourself before they take you the 10 points for violation.\nand another tip... if you still want to post that question change its "looks" start with something like What do you think of...?What's the first thing that comes to your mind...? and reformulate so that it would be more general...

I think there is a timelimit of at least 24 hours before you can choose "Best Answer".

IDK, but it depends on what time you were watching the Yahoo Answer Home Page. People usually are on the most around 5-10PM(Eastern Time) And i asked whole bunch of question, you can answer them If you want, for Example, one of the question I asked was"whats your favorite Type of NUT? and "world Cup" question...)I will keep it open for two days so you can answer them. :-P

At least 24 hours.  The longer you ca hold off the better, but at least 24.

Actually, it looks like this question was removed first time it was posted. Why?
