Disney being the one violating the community guidelines?
"This question has been deleted. Questions on Yahoo! Answers are sometimes deleted according to our Community Guidelines."
This wonderful information I got when I clicked at that Disney question from hell. For a moment justice seemed to be in the world. Alas it was only our old friend, the Y!A bug. I received a violation from Disney and got my response deleted, when I pointed out that the question in the list was completely different than the one really asked? They are spamming in a major and misleading way, and Yahoo is punishing me and other users? Nice thing.
What do you think? Do the Y!A users have to accept everything, just because it's Disney?
Yahzmin, that's what I and several others did, report it. I'm afraid, Barkley is right, that a sponsor doesn't need to follow any guidelines. The question is obvious phishing for addresses, and offensive spamming. I'm pretty upset by this.

Additionally, you've stated:
"I received a violation from Disney and got my response deleted, when I pointed out that the question in the list was completely different than the one really asked? "
If you see a question that you feel is a violation - report it. While it may not take it down, it is the correct thing to do. Don't try to answer it by "pointing out" something about it. That is, in truth, a violation for 'not an answer' and only puts YOU at risk.

I have not seen the questions you are referring to. If the questioner is labeled as "official" they have probably paid to have the question for advertising purposes. There is no way for it to get a violation since it has been approved by Yahoo.
