Please Stop Deleting Your Questions ?
When I see a question I want to answer I really take my time and try to help that person. I really do not appreciate it when a question I just spent time answering is deleted. I understand mistakes are made or you just changed your mind but what I can't understand is how someone can ask a question then get all nasty and rude because they don't like the first few answers so they delete the question all together. If you can't take a little criticism this is definitely not the place for you. last night I answered 3 questions in a row and all 3 were deleted before I could get my answer in. So my question is does it bother anyone else when the question you just spent time answering is deleted ?
Yes I know about using my back button but I'm talking about questions that's really being deleted by people who get so offended by one or two answers. They come back with something really nasty and then delete their question.
Annabell, Your right I take this very serious I'm sorry everyone else don't. I'm only on here to help people not to entertain them.

I agree! It's the reason I don't take so much time with my answers anymore, and I come off as blunt and snarky even when I don't mean to be :/ BTW - Aurelia is right there has been a glitch...but still too many deleted questions in general.

It's a Y!A glitch. Just go back and reenter the question or resubmit your answer. Use your back button, not the return to category thingy!. It's been going on for days!
It's also making it so that when I click "my activity" it says I don't exist or have been gulped!
Ha! When I edited, it said it your question was deleted. it's been annoying, but the questions are there. Really, use the back button though, not their "go back" button or you lose everything!

Yeah it's just a glitch. I have to re-enter my answers all the time as well. Sometimes more than a couple times.
