How can I appeal a question being reported.?

When I click the link to appeal it, it says my question is not from my account(which, of course it is). Then is says log out and log into my the proper account. Then I am back to; The question is not from this account.

However it's "my account" It has to be if the sent me the notification that I've been reported, and; My account that lost 10 points. I don't see anything on here for contacting Yahoo Answers; for help or anything else.

    Dont wast your time. Answer 5 qusetions and the points are back. Appeal and they take another 10 points. They really never over turn reported questions. Think about how many Yahoo questions get reported in one day? They dont all get read, just one click and they are gone with a responce of, Your question was found to be in violation.

    There seems to be a problem with the appeal link, but there is a work around.

    https://io.help.yahoo.com/contact/index?page=conta...

    For product: Answers

    Category: Appeals

    Sub category: Appeal deletion of a question

    (That also works for an answer or comment regardless)

    In the "Briefly tell us..." section just enter "want to appeal"

    At the bottom of the page on the left will be a link to contact customer care. Use that email to appeal.
