Yahoo answers question?

I keep getting notifications that my contacts have Qs, but then when I open the email, the q is just a "?", with no text. If I click on it, it's an older Q. Why is this happening? I have like 50 thousand notification emails for contacts posting Qs, but they are all old Qs that I already got notifications on.

    It's a new glitch and there is a bug report thread on the suggestion board about it, but it is Friday so it may not get cleared up quickly.

    For some the notifications are a week old and the questions have already been resolved.Some get a ? mark where the question should be.

    If you click the question mark it does take you to the question and it is usually resolved as you know.

    Just a current glitch or a glitch fix. It may be these are questions you did not get notifications for at the time they were asked and the staff fixed the gltich and they now are coming through. The staff are not saying what happened. The "?" usually indicates the user has been suspended.
