    More likely, someone who opposes your point-of-view has targeted you, and they are reporting anything they think they can get Yahoo to delete. Someone is trying to shut you down and censor you.

    Someone tried this with me too. I appealed every single time, and won every single time except for once. When you get deleted, you'll get a notice through your Yahoo email. If I remember right (it's been a while), there will be a link for you to appeal, or maybe you just reply to that email notice. Make your case. Study the terms and conditions and point out that you did not violate anything. The better you make your case, the more likely you are to have your answer and your points restored. It's a good, subtle way to poke back and whoever reported you--to defeat them. There's no way for you to find out who did though--they won't tell you.

    Also, a good idea to review your questions and answers, and look for fighting words and hot-button terms and replace them. Try to get your point across without resorting to words REASONABLE people might take offensive. I know it's a form of self-censorship, but better to craft your answers carefully than to get shut down completely.

    No you are obviously deliberately breaking the terms and conditions you signed up to and YAHOO is deleting your questions!

    But cheer up it won't last long because you are likely to get your account suspended before long!

    Why not try and post within the guidelines it is not hard?!
