Is there a way that I can delete my yahoo answers account?

I want to keep my e-mail, but I don't want to keep my yahoo answers account.

How do I get rid of it?

I know that I can ignore it, but I just want every answer/question deleted.

Thanks for your help everyone!

    The Yahoo Answers Account can't be closed without closing your entire Yahoo ID. Even if you do your questions and answers remain. The best you can do is to go to "my profile" and then "edit my info". Remove the avatar, change the nickname to something else, remove any comments, and block all communication and viewing of your Q&A in the profile.

    You can't delete your answers account without deleting all accounts associated with your yahoo ID including your email account. Even if you delete everything your questions and answers will still be on the site.

    If you delete your Y!A account you'll have to delete all Yahoo products and that includes mail, Flickr so there is no way to just delete your Y!A account alone.
