Why doesn't Yahoo! Answers want us to post truthful responses to their users questions?
I recently had an answer deleted and denied appeal because I gave a TRUTHFUL answer about someone who wanted a NEW iPod Touch for cheap. I just thought that everyone should know that Yahoo! Answers doesn't want your answers, they want your lies.

You don't say EXACTLY what your answer was, along with exactly what the question was. But it has NOTHING to do with whether or not something is truthful. If you were rude, or critical of the asker or even of the question... and more importantly... gave an opinion rather than specifically answering the question that was asked, then it's a violation. But, it wasn't Yahoo! Answers who was responsible for your answer receiving a violation. Other Yahoo! users, most likely 2 or more, report questions and answers that are removed for violations.
