Why did my stupid question get deleted?

Question

Why did my stupid question get deleted? Did someone report it or did the Yahoo staff think it was taking too much space???

Answer 1

Probably someone reported it.  Although stupid isn't a reason for reporting, or there would be a lot more deleted. lol

Some people just report anything that offends them.  I find it annoying, but then a few people often spoil fun for many.  

Repost it.  I would like to see it.  I hate losing my two points for deleted answers.  

:D

Answer 2

Maybe it was too stupid to let it stay.

Answer 3

Probably someone complained, I haven't seen much evidence of Yahoo staff bothering to read posts. I've had good answers deleted as not being an answer and apparently that's not uncommon. Someone just doesn't like what you posted and hits the report button. I guess if 2 or 3 people do that you get deleted and loose points and there's precious little you can do about it.

Answer 4

I don't know. This one seems like a waste of space too.

Answer 5

it may have been stupid!

Answer 6

Was it the "Hooked on Phonics" (but spelled incorrectly) one?  If so, it was most likely reported.  Two "trusted" members have to report, and then it's removed.  I just rec'd notice today that one of my answers was deleted.  I've been a member over a year and it's never happened before.
