Can you believe that I was reported for.........?

answering the Q....

"What's in a Chicken Enchilada Burrito from Taco Bell?"

I said ......"chicken and enchilada sauce???? duh?"

That was it. That's all.....no joke.

Do you see a reason for reporting?

It was as simple as that.

Tell me what was really so offensive to be reported and acted upon by Y/A! ????

Is this not a ridiculous act of reporting??

    I think we must try to find a sense of humour about this situation.

    I must admit that the first violation I received offended me considerably, and even though I appealed, I never heard anything.

    I am now aware that there is no human intervention whatever, so no-one should take offence. A six year old kid can go anywhere and play with the flags, or click on 'report abuse', just so he can find out what happens. Result - a violation notice against which there is no effective appeal.

    Just chalk it down to becoming familiar with the site, and once you get used to it, just delete them and don't even read them. They are worthless. You can never find out any truth about who, or why, so don't waste any time on them.

    I read earlier that someone had received 19 in one day!

    Hey, I got reported today -- I flagged a spammer, and left a note that I was flagging the guy to get the 2 points. The spammer stayed posted, and then he (the spammer) flagged my post and it was taken down!

    <slow burn>

    Obviously Yahoo doesn't have real humans looking at complaints. Maybe machines, maybe apes, but not humans with an IQ.

    It's a smartbut answer, but I don't see a reason for reporting. Certainly no reason to act upon it by y/a.

    I hope yahoo does something about the kid porn stuff found on their Q&A thing.
