Why is Yahoo handing out violations like candy on Halloween?

Yahoo! mainly acts on reports made by members of the Community. If you're reported, a computer issues a violation notice and it's up to the user to appeal.

I dunno. I've seen a lot of complaints in which people showed us what they received a violation for, and frankly... about 99% of them absolutely deserved it. The Community Guidelines aren't that hard to read -- the legions of us who hardly ever get a violation are living proof of that.

1400-something answers and just a violation or two -- I don't think that means I'm just lucky. And I certainly ain't buddies with anyone at Yahoo.

Actually, Y!A merely agrees wtih the violation statement without ever looking deeper into it

truly I got 3 today - - the last email didn't even say what question I answered that I supposedly violated the guidelines on - - - I'll appeal again, but I've never heard back from one yet.

:o)

You too, huh! And I thought it was just me. I'm getting sick of the violations... it's like Yahoo is spamming me! ROFL!

If you're playing games, it's NOT allowed here.

Because of point-gaming, not an answer and chatting.
