Is Yahoo Answers having technical difficulties today?
My name will appear as a question mark, and then the server won't be able to find my profile- has anyone else been having this issue- or does anyone know how to fix this?

Yahoo Answers has technical difficulties on most days. The current ones which you describe have been going on for a couple of days now.
It is not your computer, your account, nor because of any wrongdoing on your part. Y!A has been a mess all-around today.
Be patient. They will fix it. Then break something else.

It's been happening since last night. My name has stayed the same but I have seen a bunch of other people appear as question marks.
Plus I am getting a lot of "Oops, we couldn't find who you were looking for" nonsense as well, it's taking at least three tries to do ANYTHING on here today.
Time to find something else to do for a while.

These frequently recurring glitches are never fixed for long and keep recurring no matter how often they are temporarily fixed.
If you refresh the page or go back a page and try again once more or several more times sometimes or often it works.
The system is grossly overloaded and seems to be unable to cope.

Its been messed up all weekend, not just today
The ? thing
Changing your profile
People showing they are suspended , and you still can answer their question.
Changing the Y!A user name.
Trying to post your answer and getting the busy screen.
Quite a few people, more than usual who cant log on.
All involving the Yahoo ID in some way..is what I noticed .

Yahoo is currently having problems with avatars and nicknames. You will have to just be patient and wait for it to be fixed.
