    Yes, you can get reported for answers as well as questions. No, you can't find out who reported you. Besides, it usually takes more than one report to get something removed. The answers have to follow the same rules as the questions. Read the CGs to learn what a violation is – chatting is the #1 reported violation:

    Remember to only report things that actually do break the rules, otherwise you can 'lose reliability' on the site and any future reports by you won't carry the same weight.

    Two people have to report you and have good reasons for the report.
