Yahoo, I appreciated your answer form one of your staff members.?

Yahoo, I received your answer to my wondering why I wasn't listed as a Top Contributor considering I have over 4,000 plus points answering dog questions. You stated that after four days of not contributing I'd loose that status. Cool, I didn't know that. So, what do I have to do to regain my status as a top contributor? The Yahoo lady that answered my question, I'd like to meet her. :) She sounds cool to me. I don't want sounding inappropriate, but I liked her answer, She was polite and for real. I am not trying to flirt with your staff on the contrary, but she was a sweet lady. If I knew who she was, I'd send her a bouquet of roses, I sure would. This is the kind of Lady that can be appreciated. If any of your staff is like her, then you have sh$# going for you.

    Hey, and I pretty doubt you were responded to by a Staff member, as it is not allowed for a Staff member to tell you the exact criteria for why you lost your TC ( Top Contributor) badge.

    Please know that a Staff member is always labled with a green badge that says "Staff"

    Also, it is not true that it was because you were inactive for 4 days straight why you lost the badge. It takes exactly 3 weeks of inactivity for the badge to disappear after you earn one, or failure to meet requirements.

    To re-gain your badge: do the followings:

    1. Return to the category you were a TC for

    2. Answer questions to the best of your knowledge.

    3. Get 20 BA's ( best answers) within the 3 week span.

    That's it.

    If anybody claimed to be a Staff member without wearing the green Staff badge, please report them for impersonation.

    Thanks.
