Answers removed and reported?

Without the exact wording, we can't tell you what rule(s) might have been broken, sorry.

Community Guidelines explain what a violation is – chatting is the most reported violation. Here are links to learn about violations.

If you received a violation notice: All it takes is 2 "trusted" members to report you and the bots remove it appeals are often a waste of time and points. Some suggestions, If you haven't done so, edit you info so your questions and answers are hidden that way it makes it harder for trolls who enjoy reporting violations or presumed violations to stalk you. Also, avoid pages with controversial subjects such as religion, homosexuality, racism, pornography, any hatred, downloading movies or music, questions about drugs even soft drugs, etc. Avoid anything that may be remotely considered illegal Don't give smart, flip or sarcastic answers nor use any profanity. Pay attention to the definitions of "chatting and solicitation , and what constitutes a question" Never insult another member, call them names or post anything in questionable taste. If you believe you are being stalked go to other categories. You might also consider changing your avatar and i.d.

If your posts show any semblance or insinuation of bigotry, hatred, sermonizing or ranting you can pretty much assume they will be reported and deleted.

Yahoo will not give any specifics when a question or answer is deleted.

Violation Reason: Misuse of the question and answer format

Yes and it's frustrating. If someone doesn't agree with what you are saying they might give you a thumbs down and report you.

Did you curse, talk to the asker or insult anyone? That could have been the reason or maybe someone people are just a**holes.

Click on your avatar picture and make your questions and answers private.

That way someone cant follow you around and hassle you.

You probably have a troll.

But yes, Ive been reported. Protested it, and theyve restored my answer.

Some people are just game players, mean, or jealous.
