downdrain asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 1 decade ago

should a question be removed that receives valid answers? do valid answers validate the question?

why do some yahoo answer participants feel like they are above being offended?

i get offended sometimes but don't feel the need to cry to big brother (Yahoo).

i just answer the question in the hope of at least showing a different way of thinking or to provide evidence to the contrary.

sometimes i just give the most smart **** answer i can think of.

i've carried on too long, i'll probably be removed for chatting.

my questions remain...

    OMG...I couldnt agree with you more. Finally, I see someone that feels like I do. Right on!

    And, NO, it shouldnt be removed when it has valid answers. There are too many uptight ppl on this site. Why cant they just walk away from it if they dont like it.

    thumbs uP ...Thumbs UP...THUMBS UP!!

    I always give a smartbummed answer followed by the most educated and informed opinion I can manage. I only report people who are actually doing something that will result in a serious crime, i.e. telling someone to commit suicide or how to build a thermite bomb. I don't think people have a right not to be offended, but they do have a right not to get killed!

    I also report all spam, just becase I hate spammers!!!

    Look at it this way: What do you really have to lose if you are kicked out? So what? You can always go elsewhere.

    If people don't like your responses because of their prejudice views, it's not your fault neither your problem but theirs, The problem belongs to those how are not big enough to face facts and ask others to intervene!

    No, valid answers shouldn't validate a question that's against Yahoo policy.

    I don't believe it should.

    I have a funny one for you. I had an answer pulled for "chatting", but the asker awarded it the 10 points. WHat does that mean and who was offended by it?
