Flag happy?
What bothers you so much about an answer that you take the trouble to flag it? For me, it's the people who type "sorry, don't know" just to get the two points.

I don't hit the flag very much in fact only twice since May. But for me it is when someone leads a person to a site with pornographic pics or vids. If someone wnts to do that there are adults only forums available online to share that type of content. Yahoo answers is open to minors so it really should not be shared in this Q/A forum.

The flag button is now used when people don't like your answer. It doesn't matter if it violates rules. I've been flagged for answers the asker didn't like, and yahoo does nothing about it.
