Why does Yahoo! Answers have a limit?

Why Yahoo is not putting limit of reporting question or answers in yahoo Q&A?

  • Some people whole day report question and yahoo does nothing .

  • Answer:

    There is a limit for reporting each day. A user can't report another user unlimited number of times. There are anti-stalking limits in place that are set weekly. Also there is a reporting cap on number of reports a user can submit overall in a day before the system decides to stop working on them. Usually only anti-spam power reporters hit it though.

No reason to limit reporting. Correct reporting only HELPS the site. If you feel that something you've posted has been reported/deleted in error, appeal the deletion. If you win the appeal, the user(s) who reported you will lose reporting credibility.

Why would they limit reporting? That makes no sense. Yahoo is dependent upon its users to report abuse..they want us to. The fact that you think they should limit it leads me to believe you'd like to post violations and get away with it. They aren't limiting it because they depend on its reliable mmembers to report the posts made by the ones who abuse the site. They need more who "all day report question".

Oh!! There are so many good people here who do not report & give pressure on Yahoo's head. Hence there is no headache yahoo is not thinking any modification or limiting on reports. While yahoo does nothing on whole day reports why do to worry. Let them enjoy yahoo.

There's no reason to limit that. There are a lot of inappropriate questions and answers that need to be flagged and Yahoo relies on it's users to moderate and weed out the ones that need to go. A user can spend all day reporting abuse, if they want.

That's a good point ! But practically speaking its not all possible , site like yahoo answers where diverse members of community around the globe share their knowledge , where its each and every content has to be validated minute by minute and day by day also 24/7 . so limiting the reports will drastically increase the level of abusiveness . please keep in mind that abusers are in all levels , its futile of putting restrictions to only certain levels . Instead of limiting the reports , YA can reduce 10 points for every wrong reports . this will keep control the trolls who does that all the time .. But on the other side your issue should also be taken into consideration . YA team should note this point and have to do something to stop those trolls who doing like that . lets hope for a good change ....

Forget Me Not

Several times yahoo says that it will not encourage reporting but acting against. Yahoo should inform the member about the reporting and then only delete after obtaining explanation from the concerned members. What to do? Yahoo believes machine than members.

Always Good.
