Who removes questions from this forum?


I had two perfectly reasonable,completely non-offensive questions relating to veterinary nurse training removed,with no explanation.Who do i contact to find out why??

Questions are removed for multiple reasons:
1.) Yahoo! determines that your content is inappropriate and/or in violation of the Yahoo! Answers Community Guidelines.
2.) The community determines that your content is in violation of the Yahoo! Answers Community Guidelines.
3.) Your question expired with no answers.
4.) Your question went to voting and the community decided there were no best answers.
5.) You deleted the question or answer yourself.
6.) The best answer to your question was removed by Yahoo! or the community and when this happens the associated question is automatically removed.

In regards to reporting/violations, Y!A's FAQ says that a question or answer will be removed if it's reported by one or more "reliable users." If the circumstance is more serious then the Answers staff may remove a question or answer themselves after reviewing it. However, the majority of the time they're just automatically removed and violation notices are issued, because of the way the Y!A system is designed. I personally feel the whole reporting/violation system needs to be changed because innocent questions and answers will be reported/removed while others, that are extremely offensive, are left alone. PLUS, I know that there are waaaaaay too many trolls disguised as "reliable users" who are out to get other users they don't like by wrongfully reporting them.

Furthermore, people who state their opinions are being reported as well. And Y!A says that having a strong opinion is NOT a justifiable reason for reporting someone. They just ask that users "do not use slurs to refer to groups of people, do not insult other members, and do not act in a belligerent manner towards others" when stating their opinions. Unfortunately other users still do report opinionated questions or answers regardless of the fact that they don't violate any of the community guidelines. This is EXTREMELY frustrating because honest Y!A users shouldn't have to pay the price for report happy trolls!

Now, if you feel your question was wrongfully removed you can fill at an the following appeal form:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers...

However, the appeals process will give you an automated response or two before you actually speak to a REAL person. Personally I don't have the patience for it, but if you feel strongly about your unjustified violation, go for it. I HAVE heard of people successfully appealing, so best of luck to ya.
