Have you had an answer removed for abuse for a crazy reason?
I don't mind that my answer was removed, but it should have been in the insulting category, or not an answer category. Instead, I got: encouraging self-harm. Wtf?
Well, I didn't tell her to die or use crystal meth but I did suggest a good way to lose 40lbs in 30 days was to cut off a leg. Whaddya gonna do?

Did you tell someone to go die? that would be encouraging self harm I once told someone that crystal meth was a good diet aid and that was not removed am sure that is considered encouraging self harm but who knows they just don't make sense

I wouldn't use the word crazy, but it happens to me on occasion. I just had one removed as "not a question or answer", and nothing insulting was in my statement.
Someone asked about a secured credit card and housing after a bankruptcy etc.
I merely stated I too have similar situations and would welcome following up on any valid answers.
Big sigh.

It is just a game, most of the time you get points; sometimes they take points away. In the big scheme of things you lost nothing more than the hair that came out scratching your head.

I had one removed for NO reason.
It was cuffed under "Other", but "Other" was never detailed
