Why was I penalized one point for logging on to Yahoo Answers today?

O.K., it's been a rough and strange day today. But to make it all the more weird, when I logged on to "Answers" just a few minutes ago, they took away one point instead of awarding me the customary one point for visiting the site. What is up with that?

    Go to your profile and look at the point activity. It shows the last 5 postings. It may give a hint to the reason.

    Yahoo have been doing updates over several days & obviously screwed up some programming in the points system. Try Forum, Post & preface with BUG no points for Q & A in Forum but they may be of more help. Check your points in your profile as well.

    Now, if Yahoo removes a question that you happened to have posted an answer to, you lose points.
