There are some questions that don't look appropriate but never get touched ~ I think sometimes trolls pick on someone ~ I am sorry a troll has picked on you ~ I had it happen to me a while ago ~ it really annoyed me ~ cause they were not inappropriate questions ~ I think this is where Yahoo need to step in and kick the trolls off ~ your questions always seem OK to me ~ I hope they leave you alone soon ~ also that Yahoo look in to this abuse of Yahoo users by trolls who spoil things ~

I keep getting reported lately too, so I've studied which ones are still allowed, and compiled this comprehensive list to aid me in remembering what is acceptable.
Are you ready?
Has there ever been a period of time when you were not your usual self and you felt so good or so hyper that other people thought you were not your normal self?
Has there ever been a time when you were so hyper that you got into trouble?
Has there ever been a time you were so irritable that you shouted at people or started fights or arguments?
Have you ever felt much more self-confident than usual?
Have you ever got much less sleep than usual and you found you didn't miss it?
Have you ever been much more talkative or spoke much faster than usual?
Have your thoughts raced through your head or you couldn't slow down your mind?
Have you had much more energy than usual?
Have you become more active or did many more things than usual?
Have you ever become much more social or outgoing than usual?
It goes on like that. Oh wait. That's what the deleters should have to answer before being allowed on Yahoo! Answers.
Source(s): I keep getting deleted for innocent stuff. - Calamity JayneyLv 71 decade ago
It is not the questions that are asked, it is the user who asks them that is targeted. I have had the most innocent questions reported and I have seen other users questions of a risque or sexual nature left on.
Yahoo act on people reporting you, and if like me, someone takes a dislike to you, every question you ask ends up getting reported
Just answer for a while and see what happens. xx's

Any question can be reported and violated with no recourse. You might question a violation only to be told "Yahoo does not enter into discussion"".
Troll do not need a reason, in fact it is probably too much to expect reason from them

Ones I think I can answer about stuff I'm interested in or have experience with, and that haven't got too many answers already (cos you have to read through them all and make sure you're not repeating what someone else has already said).

In all honesty, buggered if I know. I have had the most mundane questions reported. I used to challenge the VN but now I just delete them and keep a mental tally for the week.

ANYTHING inappropriate. I'm getting reported and violated all the time for the most innocent of answers and questions. I think I have a following of trolls.

Questions like this lol ....Seriously it's trolls just up to no good reporting i'd say ..Y/a should create a troll detector or something

Trolls f*ck up life for everyone here. It's a way of life. I have had probably 200 accounts deleted, and many thousands of violations along the way. Mostly they are bullshit violations, some bastard stalks you for a while.

Anything that's not adult-rated... Actually, never mind that. I asked a question involving little babies and it got reported. I am SO mad! >.<
