If one has questions removed by the Yahoo!Answers team why don't they get their points back?

    Its part of the Punishment for breaking the TOS and or Community Guidelines.

    You not only lose the 5-points for asking the question BUT an aditional 10-Points for the violation.

    If you believe you did no wrong you can TRY and e-mail back and contest the violation notice.

    Currently violation notices are given for anything and everything and NO ONE AT YAHOO READS THEM!!!! to be sure thay are valid or not!

    Because yahoo if evil like that. The way they see if is if they have to remove a question it is because you did something wrong and for that you should be punished by losing your points.

    yeah thats stressful after I revealed a question and it were given deleted. i poted an same question yet worded it in yet differently and it didnt get deleted and that i have been given my solutions. in basic terms attempt to modify the wording of your question so it doesnt sound too own or offensive because mine became a quite own question, not in basic terms for myself yet others would have stumbled on it own too, it became about father and mom.
