  • Why "top-10-answerers" list leaders allowed to cheat from multiple accounts (point-game)?

    ♦ 1) Why Yahoo team allows violation of community guidelines about point-game from multiple accounts?

    ♦ 2) Why they doesn't check IP-access reports to clear cheaters from "top-10-answerer" lists?

    ♦ 3) Why reporting such activity is useless against "top-10-answerer" lists leaders?

    ( both - to y_answrs_team@yahoo.com or by reporting abuse)

    Even if there are enough evidence (so probability of cheating is 99%)?

    ♦ 4) Do these leaders just pay money to remain invincible?

    ♦ 5) Is it acceptable if I will start to cheat this way? Will team discriminate me by deleting my account but leaving other cheaters accounts in top-list?

    Thanks for any relevant answers and explanations

    BR, Jurij.
