Why is your Y!A activity set as private?

No.. its nothing about true colours... its about protection, i would LOVE to have my account open... i would get more answers that way.... HOWEVER... there are a lot of people here who show THEIR true colours and seem to find joy in reporting questions and answers that are not really offensive to anyone or hurtful... they are just funny... and different than the ones they ask and answer, so THEY see it as a breach of rules and a waste of points and time..... so they deny people a smile or a little chuckle and a bit of feel good by being a jobsworth kiss asss and clicking the report button.... but its NOT a waste of time... if i even spread a smile to ONE person... then why is that a waste of time

It annoys me.... i have been here from day one... and from day one this site was meant to be about FUN..... whats the problem if someone wants to ask a jokey question ?... as long as it is not offensive to particular racial, sexual or gender groups... has no isms or schisms.. is not about abusing animals or people... whats the problem ? why people gotta stick their spiteful noses in and be joykillers..... i don't know why......just leave it at horses for courses and if you don't like the question go to a different one.....

but THATS why people here need to put accounts on PRIVATE

Because I dont want to answer a question and have some jack@ss say, well on April 20 2010 you said something totally different.

To avoid trolls. Also, Yahoo started revealing too much information without permission when they started the yahoo pulse thing. They started sending all your questions and answers to contacts. For what I dont know.

maximum individuals conceal their Q & A from human beings different than their contacts to disclaim get right of entry to to Trolls, stokers, perverts and weirdos. Shyness oftentimes has little or no or no longer something to do with it.

My activity is only private until you add me as a contact. If you want to see my activity, then it takes a little effort on your part.

Up until last week it wasn't set to private.

I changed it to private b/c:

I have someone stalking me and I found it really concerning.

Someone was reporting a lot of my questions and answers.

Not at all - I don't want people reporting everything I answer, when they are completely innocent. Also, as I try not to come on here too much, I don't want people really emailing me about things here - better things to do ! :)

i believe its not private :3

Yes, because most of my family has a yahoo account. And all they have to do is type in my email address, and boom! Right there. Navigate Life.....no thanks.

I don't like those freaking darn trolls reporting my ques. and answers!
