Anyone else experiencing LOTS of problems with Y!A?
I'll click to go to answer a question, and the screen gives me any number of error messages. I answer a question, and click to submit, and I get the same messages again. Sometimes my answer disappears! I try to vote on answers, and nothing happens. This is far worse than before the maintenance.

Yes, I have these same issues before AND after the so-called maintenance. I was expecting the "maintenance" to fix all these issues.

Most folks did but now it seems to be fixed. The history of Y!A glitches is that since 2005 when Yahoo Answers started, Y!A has had many glitches and some of them aren't even fixed yet sadly but some are fixed since then. There will be more glitches in the future so the glitches won't be gone forever. Most of the time, the Yahoo Answers Team are aware when the glitches occur but they don't do anything to some glitches, sadly. Plus, the more people who report the glitches in Y!A's Suggestion Board, the more chance Yahoo Answers Team will react rapidly but sometimes, unfortunately, the Y!AT doesn't even care fixing some glitches. But be aware that the glitches may return.

These frequent glitches seem to keep recurring even though Yahoo! corrects them now and then.
If you go back a page and try again one or more times sometimes or even often the system works briefly until the next glitch comes along.
Some people have undoubtedly left Y!A because there are too many frequent and recurring glitches in the system.
