Why did yahoo remove the discussions from the news message boards???

Question

the message boards were very comical and i enjoyed reading them a lot.

Answer 1

The trolls basically ruined it for all of us. Now, there are another set of boards, but they are a lot less interactive than the original ones, and half the time the ratings don't work; I assume these are "precautions" against trolls.

Answer 2

because yahoo IS c**p!

Answer 3

because someone told them to. I guess a lawyer.

Answer 4

Personally I think its because the Republicans got spanked in the November elections. Yahoo has always been right-leaning.

I think they wanted to silence the majority of people who are against Bush and the Iraq war.

Answer 5

I don't know this for sure, but it could be because what you considered "comical" others considered hurtful and offensive.  I believe there is even a class action lawsuit in the works against Yahoo because of defamatory comments posted on them.

Answer 6

Because Yahoo is racist against Trolls!!!!
