What does it mean...."Answer deleted by Question deletion 2 points"?

.

Does it mean you get 2 points too when the question you answered gets deleted? Besides the 2 points when you answered it?

.

Update:

No....I don't lose it...it adds it.

    No, it means you lose the 2 points because the question has been deleted.

  • When a question is deleted, all of the answers get deleted too and therefore the two points are deducted and then given back to you ~ therefore the message you had. In other words, Yahoo take them away and give them back to you. Funny wording they use methinks!

    They have just upgraded the system and there are still glitches with the system you still get the two points. BQ - Definately a glitch in the system BQ2 - Programming is a hit and miss situation at times even the best thought through programs can have unexpected results especially in low level languages which is why they say profanities and the most commonly used language by programmers.

    Plus two points for submitting an answer.

    Minus two points for deleting an answer.

    Net result equals nil points.

    If the question is deleted, I've no idea what happens.
