Regarding Yahoo Answers.?
I find it really annoying on answering a question, having done some research hoping to help someone just to find that the question has been deleted after the time you have spent typing in your answer. Why if someone deletes a question is it still on the board?
This and the petty rules,are driving me to think I'll just stop visiting this site all together. all the best. Rab

Maybe the person had found an answer they were satisfied with. Rab, don't take the matter too serious.

It looks like there is some sort of glitch in the system that sometimes when you post a reply, it tells you the question has been deleted. If you hit the "back" button on the browser, and resubmit the answer, it goes through.

ive noticed several pages worth of questions that i try to answer that are deleted while im typing the answer. it can be frustrating.
the rules and judgments can be so ambiguous, it really depends on the amount of attacks against the asker whether ambiguous questions get deleted.
of course if there ARE ToS violations any one will get a question deleted
