We can't appeal anymore?

Question

Since deleted questions and answers are so prevalent on this forum, I thought I'd ask this here.

I got a violation notice earlier about a question I asked yesterday. I don't see why it was deleted, so I want to appeal it. But here's the problem. There's no place to appeal it on the e-mail like there usually is. I tried replying directly to the e-mail I got, but it failed twice. So I guess it's gone for good.

Has Yahoo taken the ability to appeal away now? This happened on the last thing I had removed before this one too.

Answer 1

It wouldn't do any good to submit an appeal on this web site anyways, seeing that they only ignore any appeals on here..............

Answer 2

your questions are c**p rebal thats why you can't appeal.

Answer 3

Yeah - they took away the link that comes with the violation notice mail. Some days ago, Celtish posted a link here that could be used for appealing (the one that Guns has posted above).

I would say, go for it. I have appealed (though rarely) and many of my responses have come back to life - burning the reporters' fingers in the process.

Answer 4

You can appeal by using this form

Don't bother though, since the majority of the time Yahoo will just ignore your appeals; at least from my experience.

Answer 5

Could it be related to a question that Flying Horse asked earlier that the feminist supported. The suing of the ISP for politicaly incorect statements.

Wouldn't it be easier to remove everything v/s face a lawsuit.

Answer 6

I didn't notice that. I haven't had any violations for a few days, but all of the ones I did get, I deserved.  I was on a lyrical rampage. For types of rampages, see the following link:

Next time I get a violation that I didn't deserve, I'll search for that option and let you know! :)

Answer 7

I think it has......I tried to do the same thing, Reb.....It didn't have the "If you feel the need to appeal" thing in the violation email they send you.

Answer 8

No. I have won 4 of 5 appeals.

GO BLUE.

Answer 9

I noticed that on my last violation.  No reason for the violation and no way to appeal.  I just stopped caring about my violations.  If there was nothing wrong with it, I just go on.  I don't even open the E-mails anymore.  I don't care.  There are obviously so many violations and appeals, and appeals from appeals, that Yahoo has decided they don't care.  

     Consider the violation as a compliment.  You evidently got to somebody.  If you really did something wrong, don't do it any more.
