I'm_Bored asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 1 decade ago

Dear Yahoo,?

Though I am very fond of you, I am feeling a little overwhelmed with your 100 "best answer" emails a day.

I think it's time we spend a little time apart while you work on your issues. I will always love you, I just need some space.

Love,

I'm_Bored

Update:

Thank you Jane. I was really just kidding, I know these things happen and that you're working on it.

    wow, thats amazing! someone from answers actually sent you a response! congrats! hundreds of people who have sent complaints about violations they have recieved havent been as fortunate. consider yourself lucky. also, according to the answers terms of service, this post is a violation. its not a question. i personally think its funny, but it goes to show how uneven enforcement is. this is a violation and you get a response from a team member thats cordial, where when someone has a legit question about wether something is a violation, they are shunned. i emailed the ya team member that answered you 5 hours ago about this , but of course, no reply.

    I'm_Bored,

    We have had some problems with our email notifications for best answer last night, causing many to be sent repeatedly. I sincerely regret any repeat emails you received, and we have stopped the notifications while we continue to work on it.
