If you post a 'poll' or a 'survey' it's technically in breac!


Question: ....ie, 'Survey...List order of preference; A, B or C'

It's not technically a question (unless of course you intentionally make it into one....which a lot don't) so is therefore in breach of their guidelines.

Same goes for posting jokes in the J&R section. If you post a joke it's not a question. In fact how can you post a proper 'answer' to a joke?

I don't particularly give a monkey's, just nice that Y!A give us VNs for 'chatting' or 'Not a proper answer' yet positively encourage us to do exactly that in some sections.

They make it up to suit, because I get accused of chatting for every bloody thing.
Apparently it is against the rules to post a poem in the "poetry" section. This is what they informed me, when I asked them how does one post a poem in a question format, without being accused of chatting.

you know, its not really a big deal.

I think you have a good point but will it stand up in court when we as users receive a violation notice and try to protest against it ?

You are so very right!! I did one on P&S once -- it was a POLL - and it wasn't even a stupid one....but SOMEONE turned me in for "chatting" -- and Yahoo QA wouldn't listen to me.......

I agree...two of my questions, which were legitimate questions, were removed Im guessing bc it sounded like a survery or something? Effin a.....yeah

Yeah, I guess a lot in P&S could be considered "chatty". With the J&R I think the rule is you tell the joke but don't give away the punchline until after people answer and you go to pick the BA.

Yeah thats why you morph the heading into a question.

pick a, b, c .that is a question

Hmmm. Never realized how contradictory that is.
