Survey: Why do you think some people get such a kick out of reporting innocuous questions and answers?
I am by no means saying that some questions and some answers do not deserve to be reported (although half the time they are not deleted anyway). Nevertheless, some members seem to get a kick out of reporting innocuous questions and answers that in no way violate the Y!A Terms of Service or Community Guidelines. I am guessing that this is driven by some strange desire for power (hint: people, getting a lot of questions and answers deleted does not make you, by any stretch of the imagination, powerful).
What's your take on this?

They are just stupid trolls who have nothing better to do. It just shows how lazy yahoo is in actreal "reading" the questions before deleting them.

Because they're the white knights that still believe reporting has some kind of positive effect on the overall well being of Y!A
that... and there's a lot of easily butthurt children here that will report anything that is contrary to what they want to hear
