They can't. There are thousands of questions and answers, many of which break the rules. They have a small staff, far too few to handle the volume of violations. Even the appeals process has become horrendously backlogged due to this problem.
BTW, it IS possible for the answer "No." to be a violation. Hard to say without knowing what the question was, but there are many cases where that would qualify as one.

No, it used to deduct 10 factors each time Yahoo bumped off one in each of your questions. Now its basically 2. So its truthfully extra powerful oh not at all ideas I study it incorrect. We get factors deleted for answering somebody elses deleted question? it somewhat is dumb i've got no longer study something approximately that yet
