Is anybody else sick of the unwarranted violation notices from Yahoo answers in politics?

    I wouldn't know what the violation notices are, I don't think Iv'e

    ever received one. I get little messages from the care desk, all

    the time. They are kind enough to let me know that No Matter

    what. Upon No review your *** is wrong, and your question or

    answer is gone.

    Now is that a violation notice.

    I just thought the Care Desk was being kind to point my indiscretions

    out.

    Wow now im confused. LOL

    That is when the block feature comes in handy. If you carefully read the answers, you can usually tell who would have reported you. I hate to do that because I enjoy getting all kinds of answers but if people are just going to report me all the time, I block them. Most of the time the violations are overturned but it sure is a waste of time if you can avoid it in the first place.

    It occurs for lots much less reason than that. the conventional reason I somewhat are turning out to be violated (in a entire of four debts - which consists of this one) is that I argue theology nicely, and am no longer shy approximately responding to somebody whose post I disagree with (say an attack on gays in the glbt section - in keeping with a scriptural interpretation, as an occasion). My responses are direct, and exhaustive. So, in frustration some human beings checklist my solutions to get them bumped off and to get me violated. Hermes

    I've never gotten an unwarranted violation notice; I've deserved all 5 or so that I've gotten in 2,855 answers.

    Violation Notices? I thought they switched over to an automated system that just tells you your question is deleted. You should appeal those deletions, it will lower the credibility of the people who are reporting you and their reporting will have less influence on the automated system.

    I just got one and I am not happy. The PC Gestapo are alive and well on Yahoo Politics and Government.

    Only since the first week I started posting on the Politics section several years ago! Nothing has changed, obviously.

    Not really, because I'm not actually seeing them. You can block those messages from your email, so you will never see or know that you got a violation.

    Do they ever do anything to the people who report people for no valid reason? The moderators do seem to be very liberally biased.
