Why doesn't anything work on Y!A?

Can't browse through all subjects Q&A on mobile, can't scroll through all my answers and questions, appeal link inoperative, "deleted" questions remain. Why do we have to work around everything?

    I think the problem stems from all of the new toys and Yahoo aren't prepared to handle them. They have been based for the good old PC and are slow to adapt there systems to cope.

    Don't blame Yahoo entirely but also those toys, they have sacrificed a lot the things you could do on a PC to make them smaller.

    If I have seen it once I have seen 1,000's of times 'switch to desktop mode' or 'empty out your cache'.

    I have a new one if you are on the Purple switch back to the Green (use Canada, New Zealand UK etc

    Try them and see if you get any improvement

    The appeal link is a known issue. For the others, I can't say for certain. Deleted questions sometimes remain on the list until all the servers update. On the mobile issue, try the DESKTOP link at the bottom for the full site and see if that works better. Does on my Droid.

    because Y!A is poorly run and as long as the advertisers are paying them they could not care less about us. I wonder how long until the advertisers put 2 and 2 together?
