I have recently been notified that I have been temporarily suspended from Yahoo! answers for asking a sexually explicit question….

Who cares? You have Fluther, why bother?

I wasn’t aware they had any sort of standards. Weird.

@XOIIO oh right!
Yeah I don’t need Y! answers anymore….Fluther is my family yo! haha

eLenaLicious's avatar

@jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities yeah they do….it sucks. Fluther > Y! answers

Why would you expect Fluther users to be familiar with the details of another site’s policies?

If you want an accurate answer ask the mods at that site. I assume you can email them, right?

eLenaLicious's avatar

@Buttonstc oh true..well I just assumed Flutherans knew everything :D

@Rarebear Uh… No, I’m happy right here.

@jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities I wasn’t answering your question.

@Rarebear You weren’t answering the original question either. Keep your advertisements for other sites on other sites.

what the hell did you ask, that you got suspended from YA??

Spinel's avatar

Count it as a blessing. The people here are open and friendly (from what I’ve seen so far). Yahoo is like the New York streets…every joe bombards one with propaganda. A lot the people there are ice cold.

‘Sides, Y!A is unconsistent. Who knows how long you’ll be banned?

Rarebear's avatar

@jeffgoldblumsprivatefacilities I was most certainly answering the question, albeit in a tangential fashion. I was pointing out another site that doesn’t run the risk of him/her getting kicked off.

And I’ll advertise other sites if I want to.

I’m pretty sure Ryan has fallen asleep.

Rarebear's avatar

@shilolo Of course it won’t, and you just made my point.

casheroo's avatar

@AstroChuck Nah, I think he’s just very passionate about this topic and will have fascinating insight. waits for jp’s response

shilolo's avatar

@Rarebear Indeed. If you have comments to make that are on topic, feel free. Since we both know you’ve been a Flutherite before, this rule should come as no surprise to you.

Rarebear's avatar

@shilolo My comment was on topic. You just didn’t like it.

shilolo's avatar

@Rarebear I frankly could care less about your alternate site. If you are so happy there, then why are you here? And why do you need to promote it if it is so stellar?

Nonetheless, we received multiple flags about your quip being off topic, and since the question was about Yahoo Answers and their suspension process, your answer was off topic. Simple as that. If you have more questions about moderation, feel free to contact us directly. Further off topic chatting will not be allowed.

Now you have us wondering – what was the question????

XOIIO's avatar

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh..the smell of banter in the morning…

Your death plus 6 months

DrMC's avatar

Yes, I am definately wondering how explicit this question was.

My cat just expressed himself fecally in the basement. Me and my son are discussing a new video. One dad, a cup, and a litterbox X(

Rarebear's avatar

@shilolo Whatever. It’s not a “here or there” proposition. I’m also on Facebook and a couple of other sites as well. And I wasn’t promoting it as “stellar” I was pointing out that it’s not as moderated as Yahoo Answers is. I didn’t even mention Fluther which I would point out except, oh no wait, you deleted the response.

AstroChuck's avatar

Well worth the wait.

poisonedantidote's avatar

forever, they are idiots that don’t know the meaning of the word suspended. all i ever did on yahoo answers was try and give helpful information and share my opinion. yet my accounts 3 or 4 where all eventually suspended by the time i got to level 3 or so. the place is infested with report monkeys and trolls and just not worth contributing to. fluther ftw.

silky1's avatar

I am a level 6 on Yahoo answers and I truly do like the site. I opened fluther acoount because someone recommended it to me. The suspension you have will be 6 months but I’ll check it out and let you know for sure.

silky1's avatar

Well I checked it out and it seems if they don’t give you a time then you are suspended permanently unless you win an appeal.

eLenaLicious's avatar

wow that sucks. Oh well forget Y! answers. Y! can kiss Fluther’s jelly butt >:D
