Was your question deleted for violation of the y/a terms?

And you thought it was unfair? Tell me your story. My question (who can prove that I;m NOT the son of God) was deleted for "pretending to be a supernatural being" although I clearly stated that I'm NOT the son of God. What's your story?

Update:

Born in Germany, raised in Arizona

    I have too many stories to tell, I can't remember them all. One egregious example was when I had a question deleted on the grounds that it was "Not a Question or Answer", when it was most definitely a question!

    Just a couple of weeks ago I had a question reported. Supposedly not a question or an answer and when I complained that it was a question Yahoo agreed with the report that it was not a question. Give me a break (rolling eyes) I thought questions began with either a who, what, when, where and why or how. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    My question had also been resolved when it was reported. Obviously I had a stalker because I had several questions reported after they were resolved. So I started watching carefully who was starring my questions for further inspection and this dude(I won't mention his name) supposedly my friend had been starring them but not answering. AH Ha.........I blocked him and no more reports.

    It's ridiculous as we all are supernatural beings...

    I think that it depends of the employee that yhoo has at the moment your question is revised.

    I have my case, I put "don't answer xxxx...ies" after a question , because if not, anybody answers anything, and you loose time reading answers that nothing to do with your question.As a result... they deleted my question, instead of deleting what i had added that they thought was wrong.

    How it is that you speak spanish, german, english...? Or you use a translator...?

    I just had a question deleted for asking

    "is it harmful to my computer to leave it on for a few days at a time?"

    I got great answers, selected best answer, then got deleted.

    Makes sense.

    yeah they said mr question wasn't a question because it was Help. Please? I was having some issues and it was in mental health. They just took it as that because it was reported as not bein a question. I was asking what I could do because I was overburdened and on the edge of checking myself into a hospital. Pathetic isn't it?

Still have questions? Get your answers by asking now.
