Question

Why are everyones Q&A's private?

Answer 1

You can access them if you are accepted as a contact. Some people do it because they are under attack by the reporting loonies.

Answer 2

I think it is ridiculous.

Answer 3

Not everyone, only the one that usually answer questions maliciously and they have a history of attacking other answers.

Answer 4

3/4 nights ago i answered a question from the BNP and said it was and they were raciest and 3 of my questions after that received answers with 4 letter word etc. they had to look for me as my Q/As are private and that's the reason.

I could look at you questions now and report them, you will receive violations for them as yahoo expects Y/Answers to police itself

Answer 5

It's a d**n conspiracy as far as I'm concerned. (loony aren't I?)

Answer 6

1) It helps to prevents troll activity on your account, stopping them from following you around Y/A as easily.

2) Some people have "personal" questions that they don't want others, especially people they know, to see.

3) Some may not want to be "corrected" or continue conversation beyond the Y/A website.
