Why have I received over 30 e-mails from YA in 4 hours?
Telling me my answer was chosen Best Answer for the same Question over and over and over again. I've been on YA for over 3 years and have over 190 Best answers. Never have I received this many notifications. Is there a glitch, a bug,??? How do I make them stop =)
And how do I get them to give me these 5 points back for asking a Q they don't have tech support to help with ;)
and since they've notified me so many times can I claim 10 points for each time they said I have the best answer and "Woah, you've earned 10 points."
Although I am getting tired of, " doing a victory dance"... ahhhhhh.... HELP!

Hi there. I got one of my BAs for a question sent to me 38 times, and now they are sending me the same cycle of BA notifications over and over. I have pretty much just started ignoring them now.
I've gotten the same cycle of Best Answer notifications about 5 times now (the cycle is 12 notifications long). If you really want them to stop this, send up your spam filter on your email service to prevent them from sending them to you until Y!A fixes the problem, which is probably going to take a few days.
This is a glitch that Yahoo Answers is experiencing at this point in time, along with the contact question email notification and all you can do is wait. Yahoo Answers will have it sorted out within the next couple of days, if not within the next week.
Have a cup of coffee while you wait :D.
Hope this helps :)

This is a current glitch with Yahoo! Answers.
many people at the moment are receiving many duplicate Best Answer notifications.
I remember we experienced this glitch about 8 months ago on the site, and by the time it was fixed i had received around 60 best answers, but have been give around 720 emails regarding them!

I notice some people saying change your settings for when Yahoo! Emails you, but this is only possible for:
-Emails telling you that you have a new answer to your question
-Emails telling you that one of your contacts has asked a new question
-Email telling you someone has become your fan on Yahoo! Answers
As you do not have the Option to opt out from receiving Best Answer notifications, you cannot stop it. (its up to Yahoo! to fix the glitch)

actual, we can see many a reaction asserting they get the comparable element from Christians. Which leaves me thinking, if the letter quite is complete of hate and bitterness, can it extremely be "Christian"? (isn't that like a letter from an atheist asserting go searching, you're sure to verify a writer?) What do people think of while they are writing the letters? properly.. while writing a letter to a stranger, we can the two motivate or insult. it quite is glaring the result an encouraging letter might have, yet what motivates the insulting letter? i'm attempting to image somebody strolling as much as a stranger and letting loose with a vicious diatribe of insults. maximum individuals in society might say "what's the problem with that individual? He would not even understand that guy and he insults him." properly...what makes it diverse while the medium is e mail? suggestions from a traveling Prayer Warrior
