Have the reporters almost succeeded?
I see less and less questions in the Senior section.
Most questions and answers get removed, so why bother?
Oh well. Even when ask about the movie NOAH, you get deleted.

It sure looks like it. 3 questions that i answered the other day were just gone the next day. It's happening in a lot of categories but this one seems to be the Worst.

Yes, it is age discrimination in my opinion.
No other site is picked on this much.

If your question is moved out of SC for the wrong reason, you can always move them back although the re-routing may not be a one-off thing (someone had to keep doing the re-routing in a tug of war with the level 7 user for dozens of times as I have seen from other answerers' comments in Yahoo Product categories.)

Yes - they have. Look up who owns Yahoo. And ALL the media in the USA. We have no true info from outside the USA. And cannot talk freely anymore IN the USA.

They are not being removed, but they are being MOVED. Level 7 users now have the ability to move questions to a different category, and they are taking advantage of it. Most of them are using this privilege for a good purpose, but many of them are taking advantage of it by moving questions maliciously. They will throw one of our questions into whatever category they see fit. And there's nothing we can do about it. I have ceased asking questions and only pop in periodically to answer something. Yahoo Answers is no longer any fun.

Yes there are fewer new questions asked here and I think that is why we are seeing seven year old questions suddenly appearing here. Either Yahoo are deliberately placing them here or some of us are scouring old ones to have something to answer.
Now and again I click on a users name out of the blue and look at what they've asked in the past and, if it interests me, I answer. Maybe others are resorting to doing that also and that will explain at least some of the older ones suddenly reappearing.
If things don't improve here soon though I will have to find another pastime because it IS becoming boring around here.
