contact list and it's limits?

I have 200 contacts and 85 fans (yeah I know I'm an addict). I recently attempted to add a contact and was informed by popup that I had reached my limit. So I stopped adding contacts for a few days. A few days later someones answer was so insightful that I attempted to add them as a contact and was successful. I had not changed levels (I'm half way between 4 & 5 and getting to 5 is a loooooooong term goal) or crossed any other boundries that I was able to determine. I'm soooooo confused. It is a little sick that I care but that is my question. Does anybody know?

    I've never heard of a contact daily or weekly limit before. The only thing I've come across is that someone has blocked ANYONE from being a fan of theirs so you can't add them as a contact. I may have to look up this one too, as I'm getting close to the 200 mark with my 150+ contacts. haha.

    EDIT: Ah-HA, I found it! http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers/network/c...

    This basically says we are limited to 200 contacts. If you want more you have to make room by letting go of some contacts. :(

    Not sure of the rules on the contacts but what I do know is that if you ask a question the wrong way you will get a violation notice pretty well staight away and that sux!!!

    I'm not familiar with every rule, but sometimes you meet a daily limit or even weekly limit. I'm glad I'm one of your contacts... quite a privilege I guess?!

    Yeeeaaaahhhh! I am one of your contacts (if you don't delete me to make room for more LOL)!

    But sorry, I don't know the answer to your question...Maybe I deserve to be deleted now...

    See you around!
