Y/A experiences technical difficulties so often ................?

it makes me ask: Do you really believe it's always due to technical problems?

Spending all that time on an answer, just to be told 'sorry' makes me come here lesss and less often.

Maybe that's their point.

    I'm seriously losing confidence in the place, though that's more because of the rampaging report monkeys, and Yahoo actually making it *easier* for them to abuse the system, e.g. reporting without any reason required.

    It seems this place is slowly dying because of neglect.

    Of course, that means there's a niche in the market for something better...

    That USUALLY means that the question has been deleted. Not always though. Rarely, it is technical difficulty. I back up a page, copy my answer, and back up a few pages, then go forward again where, if the question is not deleted, I paste my answer in.

    I also, get upset. I have a great answer to one of their questions just to be told sorry. Wish I could figure this out before I waste my time typing an answer.

    you are able to in basic terms edit the solutions to questions you have already responded if those questions are nevertheless open. After 4 days questions visit vote casting (in case you do no longer pick a ultimate answer) and you are able to now no longer edit the solutions to those questions.

    It isn't yahoo difficulties, it is the report monkeys deleting the question before you get to answer.

    Do you know what the worst thing is? They're not even sincere in their apologies.
