Is anyone else having problems with Yahoo Answers not working properly?
When I log in, I'm getting old pages and not the current questions. When I go into my answers page, I can sometimes only see the answers I posted 3 or 4 days ago. The other times, my answers from earlier today show up, but not the last 20 or so that I've answered. When that happens and I click on "more" to expand my list, it reverts back to the questions I answered 2 or 3 days ago. It's tracking my points as of days ago too, and they change depending on what page it decides to open. Weird.
There doesn't seem to be any kind of technical support to ask either, or at least I can't find it if it's there. Even the help button isn't responding.
What's going on? Is anyone else having these kinds of problems?

I have noticed some problems also. Sometimes I click on a question, but it just refreshes the same page. Also, some of the categories are displaying "ads". The other day the error "502 connection failed" would flash up briefly. This morning, all the questions were about 1 hour old, nothing newer than 1 hour. Then all of a sudden, the current questions popped-up. Don't know what to tell you, 'cause I just do not know myself. Maybe it is just something related to the Hillary question that is making the system go bonkers.

I haven't noticed but then again I haven't checked until now and the last question I answered is there but I answered if about 15-20 minutes ago.

Yeah, I have the same problems too, and the same as others mentioned. And when I try to "reply" to an e-mail, it doesn't send.
You're right about the technical support....the only place you can get "real answers from real people" is here, in Y-Answers.

Yup. Every day it seems they have problems, running 10 minutes or more late and showing the same questions over and over.

Well, at the moment I can get into Yahoo Answers without any problem, but I cannot get into my Mail. Connection failed.
