    Because you are on level 1, you can only ask a limited amount of questions. The higher up the levels you go, you can ask more per day.

    Think about it, if all level 1 users were able to ask unlimited questions. How mad would this website be then? Most users on this site are not above the age of 18 these days.

    There are several reasons for the limits and the history of the site confirms the reasons are valid.

    1. To give new users experience so they do not violate themselves off the site the first day.

    2. To prevent organized chat sessions between users using new accounts.

    3. To prevent spammers, scammers, and porn kings from using new accounts and taking over the board with auto posting programs.

    4. To promote people coming back to Yahoo so they see the ads more than once.
