Has anyone noticed their questions being removed for no apparent reason?

Question

I asked a question regarding adoption in the Phoenix, AZ area. I don't know why it was removed, and I don't think it should have been. If anyone is aware of why it was removed, please let me know.

Answer 1

I am not sure. But I asked a question. It was a poll to ask what animal you liked better. And it got removed. Just ask it again in a different way or the same. Thats what i did. It wont get removed.  

Answer 2

Good to see you still around LC. I didn't see your question, but I've had many removed. Lets believe it was yahoo's updating, that feels better doesn't it?  

Answer 3

I had an answer removed once. I stated that I was shocked how little support people get in the usa for supporting foster children and mentioned how much financial support is given in canada, which is more than double, and someone apparently took offence. So yes I have had stuff removed too.

I guess they thought it might make people do foster care for the cash. However, canada has already seen a lot of reform, and CAS is way more strict here. You have to be more than financially comfortable in ontario to become a foster parent.

It was shocking when I even found out that social worker do not visit every child every month. This is amazing to me!

Answer 4

Dear LC,

I believe most of us have had questions and/or answers removed for no apparent reason.  I can't begin to understand the reasoning behind it.  *shrug*  Welcome to the club:)

Answer 5

I think like idk yahoo ppl just go arround and delete things... they like to or something? idk they do that to me A LOT too and it gets annoying like it is not even bad so like yeah idk for sure sorry i just felt like answering this q

Answer 6

I have had several questions removed regarding foster care issues.  I just figure someone reports me.

I have tried to argue, but I never get a response back from Yahoo.

Ridiculous... and petty most of the time.  

The only questions that should be reported are those that go against the guidelines.  I think when something is reported, it is automatically removed.  I don't think "some human" looks at it.  I think it gets flagged and it is deleted.

Answer 7

some questions are removed because of a violation in Yahoo's terms.

other questions vanish in computer software glitches.

Answer 8

ME ME ME! i have perfectly ligit questions and answers removed all the time, I guess people dont like my honesty, whatever

Answer 9

Its removed for an a-parent reason.  There are people on here that don't like what their reading so they flag it (usually) under a false claim and its taken off. Yahoo usually doesn't investigate because its not worth their time.   The people that are "pro-amom hormone induced" breastfeeding are the worst or should I say most petty.

Answer 10

While the others have made some valid points (gotta watch those darn anti breast feeding wackos  lol) there has also been some major restructuring going on with YA over the last few days or the last week.  They have been redoing a lot of the scripting and features so it's possible that your question just got lost in the upgrade.
