Why doesn't Yahoo answers tell you you've reached your answer limit until after you write your answer?

I've typed up several long answers, clicked "preview" only to lose the whole thing because I've reached my daily limit. It would be a lot more helpful if they let you know you reached your limit before you wasted so much time writing an answer that just gets lost.

    Do keep in mind that a lot of limit notices are bogus, but it is annoying that when you go back, you start all over with the answer

    This has been a problem. I saw it on Yahoo Answers Forum. It must be a 'bug' in the system. It has been going on since last Friday. I am not sure when it will get "fixed."

    How do we notify Yahoo! Answers that is an on going problem?
