Can I request further review on a denied YA appeal?

Question

One of my answers was flagged for being inappropriate. Here's the link to the question:

The question was "What happens when an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object?"

My answer was (obviously) "Chuck Norris" and it was reported for abuse, then my appeal was denied. Afterward, the asker chose a best answer and commented "The obvious answer was Chuck Norris"

In my opinion, this ruling was bogus, but I can't seem to find any way to request further review. Any ideas?

There isn't any way. They are very irrational about it. 

I had one answer reported for hate speech and violence and there wasn't either one even remotely in the answer, not even a hint of it. (I asked neutral parties and they couldn't see it either.)

I think they just respond randomly, approve 10% on appeal and deny the rest. There is nothing rational about it.

Sadly, it degrades what Yahoo answers is all about because it's tantamount to censorship by the masses when there is no real review of the report.

Appeals are a one-shot deal, sorry. And a 'cute' answer to an unanswerable question - is still a violation. A second request would get no different result.

Good Luck.....If that ever happens, it is a miracle.......
Yahoo is not denying you...It is the person who is asking the question......They just hit the abuse button...
