do you get a notice for violating on yahoo answers alot?

I find that many of the violation notices people get are due to one or more of these things: spite, inappropriate content, obnoxious questions/answers, or misunderstandings.  I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if at least some of these people ask bad questions just to get answers that are conceivably reportable, so they can get a kick/power rush out of it.\n  As for answering only serious questions, that's an excellent idea.  After all, it's hard to dig a violation out of anything intelligent.

The worst that can happen to someone on here is they get reported to Yahoo Answers which in return will get that question removed or they will suspend them from the site......

Similar thing happened to me because some people's sensibilities just wont stand for that kind of a question.  I'm as open minded as the next guy and would never report anything like that.  But when someone does, for whatever reason, I suppose Yahoo are obliged to do something about it.  If you haven't been banned or your account deleted then don't worry too much about it.

You're not the only person to have this complaint. I think the Yahoo Answers Team has varying standards and depending on who reviews the questions / answers determines what stays and what goes. I've seen people post things with vulgar language, racist overtones, etc. in direct violation of community standards, but nothing happens..... the Q or A remains. I've even asked Y!A about this and never got a response.  Go figure.\n\nplrr

If you open your question, there's a link that says "Report Abuse" right under your name.  Good luck!

How do you know if you have a violation on Yahoo! Answers?\n\nIf a TOS violation or Community Guidelines abuse is reported\nand Yahoo! Inc. deems the reported content questionable or offensive i am pretty sure TOS states that the offensive material will be removed without warning and it is usually followed by termination of your Yahoo! account, any associated email address, and access to the Service. Along with removal of any files and personal data stored in Yahoo Breifcase, Photo Albums , Yahoo Groups, Folders, My Web, 360 etc... They take TOS violations very seriously, if you had a violation we would not have access under the current identities to be discusing it.

I posted this question quite some time ago. Besides what you mentioned which I totally agree, I also noticed answers like,"huh?", "what?","Are you crazy". They answered in whatever they liked just for the sake of 2 points, can you imagine that? Its like as tho they are making a fool of this useful site. That was why, I even suggested to Yahoo Answers management to automatically scan and remove stupid questions and answers. Once I complained about a question and someone advised me to report my complaint under the abuse column,"report abuse". You can do that too if you find any question or answer violating the YA Community Guidelines. To know the details, please scroll down to the bottom of this page and click on the the YA Community Guidelines.

Without reading your review, we have no clue why they gave you a violation.  If your review didn't contain any words that are a violation, then you might have a case.  But again, without reading your review, we don't have a clue.\n\nBut hopefully, you feel better after your rant.

I received an e-mail yesterday, which was apologising for errors made in the censorship. This was from Yahoo UK.\nThey are trying to do something about it. Apparently the address for complaining to when you receive a violation which you think is wrong had an error in it, so many people never received replies to their violation complaints.\nPerhaps it will be better now.

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)

For one thing you'll receive notice on your Yahoo mail every time you get an answer to your question.Wait and see.

I'm guessing you're talking about here at Yahoo Answers. The report abuse button is for anything that doesn't follow the community guidelines. When you report abuse, someone from the Yahoo Answers team will review the violation. If they find it actually does violate community guidelines, they send the offender a notice and remove the offensive posting. After 5 notices, your Yahoo account (all Answers info will be removed, mailbox shut down, etc.) will be suspended (I think it's like 3-5 days) and if this situation happens again, your Yahoo account can be completely terminated. You have the right to appeal the suspension & termination with Yahoo.
