    Until they get it fixed might be best to turn off the notifier.

    Sorry to break this to you but it's happening to LOTS of us and you're probably the 200th person to waste 5 points asking about it.

    Worse yet, there is no way for us to opt out of getting those "best answer" notices!! You can't just change your preferences like you can when you decide not to be notified that people answered your question or your contacts asked questions. We're all just stuck with the junk emails.

    It's Yahoo Answer's latest glitch. (They get so many here, it's pitiful.) It's happening to lots of us. Very annoying!! For me, it started last night.

    Now that I logged in again, yes, over 100 email messages all about the same 4 or 5 "best answers" that I've gotten in the last day.

    But that's Yahoo for you, they are always having some sort of glitch or other. Welcome to yaHELL. Yahoo doesn't seem to be able to hire competent help or prevent these glitches so I guess we just have to tolerate it until they fix it. YaHELL indeed.

  • Least you are getting emails LOL

    I have received a few BA's the past few days but I am getting NO emails at all to let me know, I have been finding out through my activity (tab)

    Yahoo Glitches yet again.

    I've got like-40 e-mails for that thing already!its such a nuisance!and what's more,Y!A is facing lots of problems too.unless that is fixed,i do not think it'll stop....i guess yahoo's enter key got stuck...lol...if you want them to stop,go to your profile,edit and make most e-mails coming to you from yahoo answrrs unchecked.that MIGHT help,not entirely sure tho...but i hope this problem is resolved soon!.

    :)
