Remove Velcro from leather boots?
1 AnswerCleaning & Laundry6 years agoI would like to know...and I am asking the Yahoo Team..as you never give an E-mail address; if I make a polite comment of my opinion..?
Just what the above says......If I give a polite opinion, why am I told I cannot make a comment?
Explain to me, what is not acceptable what I am saying, the guide lines are followed to a "T". I find this to be...one set of rules for some people, and one set of "unspoken" rules for another.
And it is totally unfair for the Yahoo team not to give an E-mail address.
Let me say, I find most questions ARE NOT within the Community Guidelines, but nobody worries about all the cussing and explicit inappropriate questions.
Therefore it is correct/fair that you read those questions...and a lot of the answers; and you will see they are not within the guidelines.
Also daily, anywhere from 2-5 of my answers in HEALTH are chosen by the Askers as best answer. However, I remain at 20%.....why??? I do not do this for points, as I truly believe I can help people feel better, and yet be totally honest with them. Also, I have received compliments from various Countries around the Globe..........so I must be doing something right.
I believe the problem lies with the Yahoo Team, and would appreciate input from other people, answering questions, PLEASE AND THANK YOU.
2 AnswersYahoo Answers7 years agoWhat to do about pigeons?
Hello:
We have a 2 story home and a balcony entirely around the 2nd floor. We have so many pigeons! It's difficult to keep the floor clean, plus they tend to get very noisy. We have tried setting up owls, wind chimes.........nothing seems to help. This is in London, UK, does someone else have this problem? Any advice would surely be appreciated. Our two little girls add to the problem as they are forever in and out. No, they are not allowed to feed them.
Thank you kindly for your time >3
4 AnswersOther - Home & Garden7 years agoFloor problem?
What is the best solution to remove wax (or something greasy??) from a laminated floor in the kitchen. If I use something abrasive I could easily take the shine away permanently. We don't know what it is, we think either wax or very greasy......done by previous owner of the house. No, we can't ask them, they moved out of the Country.
If somebody has an easy solution, please share. We don't want to get it done professionally, unless we have to. :(
Many thanks!!

2 AnswersCosta Rica7 years agoHairdressers, PLEASE?
My sister had aggressive Chemotherapy, and her hair didn't get a chance to grow in properly as she was put on anti-cancer medication, taken daily. 6 years later her hair is super thin and very fine, now a receding hairline is developing badly. Eventhough she wears bangs, you can still it. She has a ponytail of a 3 year old, and wears a Butterfly Clip.
What cut and style would help? She had very thick, coarse, curly hair. Now, it's very fine, straight (no body) and about 1/3 of what it was.
Please, don't suggest wigs. After a year of wearing them, now she can't stand them. She's tried various shampoos and conditioners suggested by nurses, friends, and the Cancer Clinic, nothing helps .... :(
Any advice/opinion would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

1 AnswerOther - Computers7 years agoWhy has Yahoo complicated simple issues?
I would like to find the nice stationary and BOLD when sending an E-mail. Could someone please help me?
Yahoo has complicated everything simple. Surely, I need to change my home page from Yahoo to a less complicated one as Google. They ignore any important E-mails and expect the paying customers to help paying customers...........what is that??
2 AnswersYahoo Answers8 years agoWhy does my PC keep freezing?
Firstly, I'm not PC savvy. I have an HP notebook, when I play a game on facebook it keeps freezing up. I scan it every second day. The memory is far from full. Could someone please explain (in detail) what I could do so it doesn't freeze up all the time? It's not my PC, I believe it's me....Help, Please. No, I'm not a kid, Lol (then I'd know all about it)! I did not get a manual when I bought it, if it had a manual I'm quite good with those. Thank you in advance >3
1 AnswerOther - Hardware8 years agoHow do we report when this forum is being used for advertising something that they are selling?
When this question and answer forum is being abused, where do we report it? Whatever happened to the "abuse" that we used to be able to click. Also, most of the time a person can't vote because it doesn't work. Why can't we go back to the old program. Let me say whoever thought they were improving it.......surely didn't. It is complicated and "tacky".
Instead of making, or rather leaving it simple, now it is too much like working, instead of being enjoyable and knowledgeable. Many contributors will stop answering questions???

2 AnswersOther - Mexico8 years agoTYPEWRITER INK ON LIGHT BEIGE RUG?
We have 2 spots (which we thought were grease) on a light beige carpet. I've received very good replies but we thought it was grease. It turns out my husband moved his antique typewriter and the stains must have come from there. So, now I need to re-ask; what is the best to get out these INK spots. Our carpet was recently cleaned and I hate to have to re-do it! Plus, the question being would they get it out or make it worse:-(
