where did I go wrong here on answering this question?

okay I got this violation message

this was the question

Question: Where should I go in the los angeles area to spot celebrity's?

Question Details: My boyfriend and I are going to LA and I want to go sight seeing for celebrities, where should I go? Also where are some good places to eat that aren't too expensive or some romantic places to eat? I just want to spend some good quality time with my boyfriend. So any ideas please let me know. THANKS SO MUCH!

my Answer (which was deleted of course): Please leave the celebrities, ALONE they need their privacy there are not here for you to gark over! they still have to pay their bills feed their families and pay the mortgage they do not hang out street corners looking for fans! now with the pazzpais its even worse!

Violation Reason:Not a Question or Answer

but I didn't i answer the question? so how can I get violation saying I didn't answer the question

Obivisman also answer the question in a simliar way (reminding the posters the celebrity want their privacy

and his question wasnt deleted..

    Go figure. I get violations on an answer that gets 95% best answer. Some jerk hits the "Report Abuse" button, and regardless of the merit of the report, it's deleted. End of story. I have appealed on a number of occasions when the deletion was not justified, but all you get is the canned response. I am convinced that the YA team that is responsible for reviews has too many to review, and they just don't care. They just hit the "deny" button and send a canned response.I wouldn't be surprised if this was reported. LOL.

    I used to get pretty bent over the whole thing, but now it doesn't bother me. I say what I think, and if they report it, so be it. I'm still top answerer in the Los Angeles and US travel categories. Now I plan to take over the world! Bwahaha!

    Let it go. I've tried to reason with these knuckleheads, and it's just not worth the energy.

    hmm... I smell bitterness~~~

    Betcha the poster of the question was ticked off by your answer (which is right on the money by the way) and clicked "report abuse".

    Forget those immature fools that have nothing to do but gawk at other human creatures. Geezalouise.

    Technically, you did not answer the question.

    you gave sage advise as to not to pester the celebrities, but it didn;t answer the question as presented. They want to know that if they go to Spago's or hang around outside Dodger stadium, they might see Julia Roberts or jack Nicholson

    Some people just don't want to hear the truth. I think your answer was right on. Candy Noel
