Someone was asking how to download a program and i got banned for mentioning bittorrent. I was unaware i couldn't mention it because there were several other topics about it when i joined, so i thought it was alright....and i couldn't be bothered reading their whole tos.
Yahoo answers is just like so many other services - its attracts lots of spam and hence the rather draconion approach of handing out bans like confetti. Just give genuine answers to questions and you should be ok, it's easy to spot the spam answers!
I asked my very first question with them after being a long time answerer...and they sent me an email saying my question was spam. The question was not spam at all. !!??
You can always post in different categories, where there are different people looking for answers! so i guess you can post links as many as but not in the same category,otherwise you will be reported!
dicto anyone else confirm this. It seems yahoo just dont like google, so they outright banned all blogspot blogs? this happened to me and i thought my blog was particularly blocked. suckers!
It pisses me off when people post "Do your schoolwork" "wait till you get home" etc... when someone asks about proxies... Number one, we use Yahoo Answers to promote our proxies and these people are posting this shit... They should be the ones getting banned for not answering the posters question --- ISNT THAT WHAT THEY CAME TO YAHOO ANSWERS FOR?! I report anyone/everyone who doesn't answer posters question, its a waste of time
Yeah that's annoying. A guy by the name of Bill M comes to mind specifically... He cuts and pastes the same BS every time. So I reported him :lol:
Oh funny I thought that Bill M dude was some generic robot or "be good" kinda of big bro supervision thing as I can't believe someone would actually bother posting that crap over and over. Isn't he/she the top gun answerer too? How ridiculous is that?
Wow, I did not know people use Yahoo answers for promoting their links too, I might not believe the answer links anymore easily
Yup that's the guy... It's funny - I haven't seen him on in the last couple days since I clicked the report button. I wonder where he's at? :evillaugh:
