Can someone at Yahoo please reactivate my account?

My 12 year old Yahoo email account was recently taken away. When I inquired as to why I was told that it was because of Answers violations in a cookie-cutter response by a tech. I was never given any notice of violation or suspension before and used my account to keep in touch with family (including a deaf grandmother who only uses email) and friends (including those I was in Iraq with) and would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas (and recover all my stored info). It's beyond frustrating, and I believe it was a result of a troll or trolls ganging up on me.

I've had a really bad year, and this just made it a heck of a lot worse...

The account was falcon_01

Update:

I tried that... no luck before. Will try again.

Update 2:

Thank you Breezey! You are awesome! I'll try that as soon as I can!

Update 3:

Toad, this is a different account. The problem is not getting an account, it's not being able to get in to my old one. I want to be able to access my old account. Did you even read the question? sheesh.

    Try setting up another account using different name and password. Or use different home page and set up another account.

    You know what... I'd just go to that address Breezey provided and bomb-threaten them for all their worth. ...I don't know really, but if I could get away with it, I would do something crazy like that.... >:D
