Can I block myself from Yahoo! Answers?
Is there a way in Yahoo! account settings to disable my ability to answer questions, without messing up any other features in my Yahoo account? I'm addicted to Y!A (seriously) and I think this would maybe help me kick the habit.
If I break the rules, can I be sure of only being blocked from Yahoo! Answers but not all of Yahoo? What's the safest way to break the rules?

No, you just have to do it yourself. You could install a Nanny program on your computer and block YA, but you would know the password, so it really wouldn't help. Don't try the violation method. You never know if Yahoo will suspend just YA or all your Yahoo accounts.

No...there isn't a normal purpose for that, thus them not adding it.
You can easily block the answers.yahoo.com domain and still be able to use yahoo mail and other features. (I think.)
Cheers!
