EM!LY asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 1 decade ago

Are you able yo delete your yahoo answers account?

Update:

Is there any way that i can delete JUST the yahoo! answers account, but still have the email and stuff.

Also, is there a way that i can make it so that my name doesn't show up when I type in my name? Cause my friend doesnt want to delete her whole account, but she typed her name in on google, and it showed up, and she wants it to be like....gone. Is there any way i she can do that? thank you.

    You have to delete your entire Yahoo! account. Even then, your resolved questions and answers will remain.

    You can delete your entire account: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/acc...

    If you don't want to do that you can just stop using yahoo answers and continue to use your mailbox etc.

    YES, the only way is to be inactive for 90 days with YQA.
