Anyone else having this problem in the Martial arts section of Yahoo?
I just answered 2 questions and started to answer a third one, only to have a message pop up from Yahoo telling me that I'd reached my limit on the number of questions I can answer today... Another great feature from Yahoo. I wish they would stop making changes in look and functionality, and just keep things working and troll free...
Great after posting this question, now YA is saying that I have reached my limit for asking questions today.
Thanks guys. I was just curious if it was widespread or not. Seems to be widespread. Another new glitch is coming up too. If I try to open up someones question to answer, I often get a message telling me that the question on longer exist, or is under review. You can get around it and view the question, but it is annoying.

If you refresh the page, that mostly fixes that. this new format is so full of glitches it is hard to use.
So try the 'refresh', or if using Chrome, the 'reload' function.
That should do it, it is only another glitch I think.

I'm having the same problem. I'm Level 7, about 64,000 points. I get three or four answers out and then it tells me I've reached my limit.

Well, if you can read my answer, it means I haven't been hit with the limit, as I've answered two already today - this will be my third. I have noticed constant "question under review" messages, which go away with a refresh; and I've noticed that when using the expand tab to add a comment or edit an answer, the screen jumps to the top of the page; and, when you click "save", sometimes, clicking it once is not enough - not a double click, but sometimes 2 or 3 single-clicks is necessary.
Honestly, these idiots in the Yahoo IT department are living up to the company name. Hasn't anyone taught these imbeciles the concept of unit and system testing? Or staging areas? Didn't they learn their lesson when they rolled over to the purple mess when they switched from the green mess? Didn't they get a clue when the entire US population started answering and posting via the canada or australia sites?
Well, before I hit submit here... gonna copy my answer and paste after a refresh to see if I can get past it...

The Yahoo! answers site is having a host of glitches that have been going on for quite some time now. It is getting frustrating, but sometimes refreshing the page will help.
If Yahoo! will allow you to get to the link, start complaining, maybe that will help to get things fixed.

I haven't seen it yet. This is my 1st answer in a few days. But I was getting a lot of this question is under review when I click on a question or if I wanted to edit my response.

It's an intermittent glitch that Yahoo hasn't fixed yet. It's causing issues all over YA, not just in Martial Arts. I tried to answer a question just this morning in another category and it told me I'd reached my limit for the day, though I'd only just started.
You can usually fix it by refreshing the page, though you may have to do it more than once before you can type out your answer.

Yes, this is happening to just about everyone. Refreshing the page seems to help some of the time.
