Just realised that it's been 4 years since I used yahoo answers. Has it changed much?

There are millions more users and there appears to be more who are just here to abuse the sysytem and writing the first thing they say without caring if they answer the question or not.

But good questions will still get good answers, but not as many.

You may also find the way things are done are different as well.

Besides the reoccurring glitches:

Level 5-7 now have an 80 answer 20 question limit which they changed in April

They reinstated the -10 for when a post is reported

Answer were dropped to the bottom of the page when edited (they changed it back)

Yahoo!360 and Yahoo!Pulse now have become Yahoo!Profiles

Starred Questions can now be sorted into Newest,Oldest and Most Stars

Perhaps the main change is that the site is now more overloaded than ever before and this is probably why there are so many recurring glitches as the site seems to be unable to cope with the gross overload.

As your account has been dormant for 4 years and you joined 6 years ago in 2006 your account was supposed to have been deactivated by Yahoo! more than 2 years ago as explained below.

Dormant accounts are deactivated after 6 months (plus an additional 2 months for every year the account was held). An account is considered dormant if it hasn't been accessed for that interval, even if email has arrived during that time. Note: Signing in via an email client, such as Microsoft Outlook, Mac Mail, or a mobile phone mail application is not considered a valid login. You must sign in to your account on a Yahoo! web site using an Internet browser (Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Chrome).

Once an account has been deactivated, it's impossible for the Yahoo! Mail team to retrieve any stored information.

Note: Yahoo! Premium Mail accounts are protected from dormancy, and are not subject to deactivation due to inactivity. Please visit our Yahoo! Mail Plus page to learn more and sign up. Note that Yahoo! Mail Plus is not available in all regions.
