Are the staff at Yahoo!Answers going crazy (or are they there)?

I had 33 e-mail messages from Yahoo!Answers this morning stating that my answer was chosen as the best answer. I got really excited about the points boost - then I noticed they were all for the same 3 questions (10 messages for each question). Did anyone else here experience that barrage of e-mails?

    Yes as a matter of fact I have. There's something called replicating service in the server. That's what happened to all of us, we got 5-10 replicated emails from the original one. That must've been a doozy for them to correct.

    Yes i had many emails this morning as well for 1 question....lol! I'd say yahoo has another glitch in the system. They might try fixing the problems with what they have instead of bringing out all this new stuff....lmao!

    I heard that there's a guy at Yahoo who's doing a protest for a pay raise and he's locked himself in a room and sending emails until he gets the raise. He vowed to send as many best answer emails as he can until his demands are met.

    But in case it's something else, you can report it as spam here, off of this link,

    http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/spam/index.html

    which may help escalate the issue.

    Here's the log link

    Best of luck! TGIF!

    (BTW, do you hear that? Yes. It's silence. No more emails. There's a cease fire in effect.)

    the comprehensive reason they did this factor equipment and person to person conversations is so that they could by no skill ought to get on right here and problem about miscellaneous questions. "enable the ppl do the artwork for us!!" So in different words, they might by no skill see your question. Sorry!

    Yeah, I just got 11 responses for a best answer to a question. Really disappointing, isn't it?

    Yeah... I had over 100 but only one of them paid 10 points.
