Why does Y! Answers ask me if I want to leave - data you have entered may not be saved every single page? It's getting really annoying.?

    I think that the programmers must have stolen the code that causes Facebook to do the same thing occasionally.

    Yahoo doesn't care about this site enough to fix most of their glitches.

    Probably another glitch, which would be just one of many... and they'll probably take months to fix it like all the other glitches.

    Are you sure that it's Y!A and not your browser?

    Must be another one of their famous glitches.

    It is just Yahoo's way of torturing us.

    Shortest time for me was 5 and half months. Usually is is a little over 9 months., On this email account, it was 9 months an 10 days. Then 9 months, and 4 days to reach 50,000 points.

    I am retired. How I spend my time is my choice.

    This was a glitch experienced yesterday, but today everything is working right again here.

    Just ignore it. The site is going through changes and there are kinks to be ironed out. Just make sure that you hit submit. If all is good then just tick out.

    If I'm leaving something lengthy and it's important to you to answer, tick highlight and copy just in case it gets erased (though I have not had that happen to me) and then paste the answer in.

    Because it's switching from the new format back to the old.
