Why is the YA report system a lie as they do not actually bother anymore?

Update:

10 REPORTS BY SOME BULLIES IN 2 days, I've appealed EVERYONE and not a SINGLE has been looked at by YA. it s a joke and a lie.

    Maybe that is true for habitual offenders, but many of us still get satisfaction from the YA appeal & report system.

    I couldn't agree with you more. This question linked below has a user with 8 thumbs down who basically asked to be given a best answer. That is CLEARLY!!! a violation notice as it breaks the rules of point gaming. I reported the answer and IT'S STILL THERE!!!!! (Question: https://au.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20...

    When I get violated it's usually when I say "Yes" or "No" answers because the question itself asks us to use one of those 2 options. unfair? You betcha.

    It works,I have been reported & won my appeal several times as have some of my contacts.I must point out that the very nature of your Qs causes them to be reported as rants.Maybe you should consider staying out of politics & other controversial categories for a while.

    I had 7 violations a week ago.Appealed them all and havent heard anything. This morning I received another mainly because I upset Trolls. Appealed of course. It is true there doesnt seem to be anyone there. Look at the number of staff needed for a task that cant be done by machines..

    Edit update I had the one restored I speak of above,but seems I must write off the other 7.
