Nikki asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 5 years ago

Why is my Yahoo nickname coming up as a question mark?

I never changed anything about my profile -- it just started showing up as a question mark one day, instead of my name.

Update:

Thanks for the info, guys!

    It is a glitch that happened yesterday my time. Everyone is effected by it. Others can see your profile picture but your a question mark on your answer and profile page. It will be fix sooner or later. Not an unusually event here for those who been around. Just have to wait and see when the glitch straighten itself out.

    It's all part of the Yahoo experience unfortunately, it's been happening for years! Give it a day or two and it will be back to normal.

    It happens every now and then. Things will work after a few days.

    Why ? , because the engineers need work to do work on Tuesday, so here is something they could fix :p.

    It happens from time to time. Mine did it too. It will clear up in a few days.

    That is a longstanding glitch with the avatars. Ignore it.
