I Drum asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 1 decade ago

Who am I ?. And why am I asking you anyway?

That was the question I posed yesterday. I didn't add any explanatory text. Today it was removed, as it was considered that it was in violation of some guideline. And it cost me 6 points!!

Which guideline did it violate?

Or, is it that the fool that caused this removal, failed to realise that the whole purpose of my question was to trigger some thought in the lines of :

"WE SHOULD LOOK INTO OURSELVES TO FIND OURSELVES".....

...And how do I get my 6 points back? Not that I care of course!

    I think you do care, otherwise you would not be posting this question. Anyway, some people already know who they are. The ones that don't then i guess have alot of thinking to do......Sometimes i often stop and think well, why am i doing this??? Will this help me in the long run? What can i do to change things to make things better for myself?and everyone around me? Believe me i get what you are saying. They just have to study themselves instead of other people. I believe that your question was honest, and you were trying to make everyone think about who they are. (I also did not consider you as chatting) Just ask a simple question to try not to p***anybody off! (LOL)!!

    It never does any good to appeal against violations- no one actually reads the appeals.

    Good question though, we should look inside ourselves to find ourselves, although if I looked inside me I fear I would get lost, I'm a confusing mass of complications!

    I saw another question removed yesterday for no apparent reason that I could see because I have seen the same exact question asked before. Then there was an advertisment on several times, reported several times(at least those answering said they were reporting it) and the add stayed on all day. Doesn't make sense.

    Your question is not clear and how do u want somebody to answer a question like that without knowing exactly he/she is answering? Be specific and go straight to the point and u will see answers to your question.
