Did anyone get their Yahoo Answers account suspended?

I got my account suspended because apparently one of my answers was against Yahoo rules... This is quite annoying. But is this quite common? It looks like it's very easy for them to suspend you..

I think I'm not going to be bothered to come on this website anymore since they suspended my account like 3 days ago.

Update:

'yo ninth account', lol yeah i was suspended for something i wrote on the israel section. i didnt even write anything wrong. it was a totally normal answer and they suspended me for it.

yeah it looks like its so easy to get suspended here...and most users have had a few suspensions. that really sucks!

    Zarda,

    Yes of course I've been suspended a couple of times, since i'm a long time contributor to the Yahoo answers, I've developed new strategies to avoid suspensions, and apparently they are fruitful.

    good luck anyway.

    I've had my account "suspended". I mean deleted (maybe). My 360, my email, my IM, my Yahoo! Answers, and my own "page" got suspended. I know who got me suspended, and I know why. I was too young, though I actually wasn't. My old account I shared with my 11 year old friend. She was almost 12 and told everybody so! I was 13, and still am. Anyway, one user didn't like it and repeatedly reported me because I was too young. They also thought I had wrong information ALL the time because of one question. I was level 4, Top Contributor. Then, to top it all off this persons other account or "friend" answered my old accounts still open question and insulted me while getting best answer! Well, I didn't appeal, I didn't know how. It said "you need a code" or something like that and I had no idea WHAT code. Anyway, I haven't had a reply from them, and I don't know who Jilibean is. lol. Oh, and always hide your contacts, and Q/A. Make another email account so if you "forget" your account ID or Password they can send it to you. Also, write it down. That way you can tell if it was deleted, or you just forgot.

    It is common... this is my second account.

    Why did you create a new account if you don't want to be on here anymore?
