How do I contact Yahoo?

How do I clear a yahoo! answers question from under my contact name on yahoo! Messenger?

  • Ok, so I asked a question on here the other day and then the next day I log on to yahoo messenger and see my contact name and under that it says "Question Asked "etc..etc... question" ... and it provides a link to the question. I searched and searched and found no real answers other than change your privacy settings to not share things. so I went to my preferences and set everything anywhere to "no sharing of updates" and all that goodness. But it's STILL THERE. I then thought, hmmm, maybe yahoo! answers has it's own settings. And what do you know? it does. However there is NO visible choice for "DON'T SHARE MY ******* QUESTIONS WITH THE WORLD". The only options are "everyone" "my contacts" "my fans". Seriously yahoo? aren't you leaving out one blindingly obvious choice?? Anyway, so I contact yahoo support and he said it boils down to this. Once it's there, it's there. The change to my settings on not sharing anything (in messenger and profile settings) will only affect things from here on in. But I don't know if even that will work because yahoo! answers has it's own preferences and again NONE of them will allow you to NOT share your questions with everyone on your contact list. Now, my question was a fairly innocuous question about a movie but this whole thing got me to thinking. What if I want to ask a fairly sensitive question? what if I know someone is cheating on someone and ask how others would deal with the situation? what if I had cancer and wanted to know the best way to go about telling my friends and family? what if I had any number of sensitive and personal questions to ask? wtf are you thinking yahoo? WTF?? any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
