Why does Answers say I need to log in with a different ID?

The Answers site has had some problems for the last few days. The Yahoo Answers Team is working hard to fix the bugs. That is a glitch and has happened to me also. It doesn't do that when the site is working normally. Remember, it is a computer that checks user ID's to keep them from being duplicated. The bugs are messing it up too.

I got that response also. Then I got a message that Yahoo Answers were on a "coffee break". I couldn't go anywhere without seeing either/both of these responses. Seems they are "back to work" now.

I think they had all our ID's mixed and they have a huge problem getting them back...that's why they need a breather...they need to fix their system....but then...we are all back online...I think there is no need for a new Id now....!!

It happened to me, too! I think yahoo answers might had some errors.. but it's all working properly now. =D

New software was installed, so it get glitchy for about two hours

that was happening to me a few minutes ago, but they seem to have it fixed now.

glad to know it wasnt just me, i was freaking out at first.

I think you have logged in with wrong password too many times.

So your account was blocked..

I dont know....I got that earlier too all I did was refresh
