How to stop spam on Yahoo! Answers?
A ton of Anti-Semitic answerers have been an ongoing problem for the website, and especially the History section where each week is a new wave of people copy and pasting stuff about Jews taking over American's rights. I believe Yahoo! needs to make an effort to remove these spammers, and I'd like to know how I can personally stop one. They are becoming obnoxious with their posts and any answers would be greatly appreciated.

I know who you mean, and it's not a tonne of people, it's one moron with multiple accounts who just creates new accounts when his old ones are suspended.
There is not much we can do about him, as he will keep on creating new accounts. Today he is calling himself Monica I think. However we can take comfort in knowing that person most probably an unemployed skinhead living on welfare, and that he has so much hate in his heart that he will never ever be happy.
So we just ignore him, move on and be thankful that people like him ultimately always lose.

You can try reporting them, but reports against antiSemitism go largely ignored. I don't even bother with that. I just try to combat the hatred whenever I see it.

You can't. Once a person starts trolling, they won't stop. You posting about it and making a big deal only fuels the flames and makes them want to do it more. The only thing you can do is ignore them.
