Hi, Here I want some genuine discussion regarding Yahoo answers. The Main problem is Yahoo Answers Suspension Notice There are a thousands of people who are suck of this problem in yahoo answers. Here is my case. I have made Yahoo Account nearabout 2-3 times and all of you are requested to tell me what is my fault. Account 1 Q: I do not like Paypal? What is the alternative? My Answer: If you really do not like paypal then you may use alertpay or moneybookers etc. Result: I got mail "You have put answer in violation of yahoo answer community and your account is suspended" I really could not understand why it had happened? I wrote a mail too but no reply from that side. So, I created another account. I used this for 1 month Account 2 - Status - Answers - 50 - Best Answers - 67% I asked this question in Yahoo answers one day from this account: Do people that prefer receiving oral sex rather than having any other type of sex are egocentric? And they deleted this question and suspended my account because they said that I violated their rules but the fact is that "Yahoo Answers" already has 24,137 questions for "oral sex". Account 3 I asked a qustion on 1/10/2009 and got suspended the next day. I wanted to know why, cause I did not asked anything that would break their rules. Also I have found out that the suspensions are permanent unless a person can win an appeal. The most ridiculous thing I found on Yahoo answer is you lose the points when you ask a question and it is question - answer community... lol.. What do you think about that? Do you like Yahoo Answers? Please do not tell me that they are the great source of traffic. I am not discussing about getting traffic here.
I enjoy the occasional ridiculous Yahoo Answer screens that pop up on digg every now and then but don't have much experience with it so I can't help you.
I know few people who keep on posting from there suspended account , Does someone at DP also know the trick , I am fed up with your account is suspended message , Why cannot yahoo allow posting a sponsored link at source per answer for few cents ?
I have been a member there for so long.. I put my website URL frequently in reference..where it's suitable. never got banned once.. But yes, it's important u gotta read Terms and Conditions.. looking at ur case, it looks like, YAHOO! basically ban your IP address. it could probably happen, when you IP is blacklisted for some big reasons.. because I don't see any real issues with it. I sometimes answered pretty biased solutions because I believe so.. it may not justify what others think. But I still not get banned....even got best answers.. and I am 20% best answer.. The thing is, probably you started spammy or giving them un-useful answers when you do not feel right. because you have a history log that how you perform.. some people ask for laptop problems, and they say, buy a new one.. or are you this stupid? one line answers, that doesn't help in the long run. hope that helps
they may have use some kind of script that would ban some sensitive words. you might just unlucky to typed those words. I never have problem (yet) with yahoo answers though.
If you think it is nonsense, you can email to yahoo for appealing. i have make more than 1200 answers and i didnt facing this kind of problem
Yahoo Answers - Why does Yahoo Answers suck so bad? A: Cause they just do. 10,0000000 votes. Chosen best answer. Someone should ask, Who is better - Google or Yahoo? LMAO!
I havent been suspended in yahoo answers ever since i started. what i did was create more real answers than answers mentioning products or websites. i guess you need earn good levels before you start promoting in yahoo answers
same thing happened to me, i set-up almost 3 accounts last week in yahoo answer and all of my accounts were banned..it was so irritating..i plan to start creating accounts again, but I've read some post here that says they ban IP addresses.. this is a real headache.. of course, i wanted to have an account in yahoo answer because it is very helpful in building traffic, but what the heck, they might ban me again..so i couldn't help you, we are on the same boat..
Yahoo answers were setup for real life Q and A ... not for your spammy self interests to promote your own sites for futher gain, this is not the purpose of Yahoo answers. so do not be whinny when they catch on to your spammy tactics...some of you have gotten through on luck, while others keep getting tagged, stop using them to try and fund your own self interests and you will be fine...just stop spamming....then you come here on DP and act all innocent "why did I get banned" you know why you got banned!
If you got banned and werent spamming or doing anything against the TOS as you stated, it could be an issue of your IP address having been banned before. Are you using some kind of proxy?
What a answer? It could be better if given for the question asked You just missed the question and I think you have not read it at all. Its OK! 1. By the way what was my self interest if I am asking to use alertpay rather than paypal. Do you think that alertpay is my own site? 2. Where is my site regarding Oral Sex? 3. Why I could be suspended without asking any question. I think you should read the thread atleast and should not reply only by reading the heading... BTW, it was a good try to increase one post.
