Can I delete an account on Yahoo Answers? If yes, how?

How to delete your yahoo answers account?

  • Answer:

    There is no option for that, because you can't do it. If you have a yahoo email, you have an Answers account, whether you use it or not. Only the YA team can DELETE your account. Closing your EMAIL ID deactivates the YA account, but you also lose everything attached to that email account. After 4 months, the YA profile WILL disappear. But ALL Q&A from that profile are still visible & searchable on site. IN VOTING or RESOLVED Q&A remain the property of Yahoo. The safest thing to do is: First, click your avatar and: ► Delete open questions and answers to open questions ….(Others will remain on the site) ► Remove all Contacts Then click 'Edit My Preferences'. There: ► Blank out your avatar, nickname and 'About Me'. ► Close links to IM and/or email. ► Disallow fans. ► Set Network and Q&A to private. Back at your profile page, click "View Pulse". ► Click "Settings" (top right). ► Click "Manage Updates" and turn them OFF ► Click "Manage Privacy" and set it to HIDE Then just leave.

You cannot do that I am afraid. You have to cancel all or nothing. More importantly if you do cancel everything your resolved questions and answers will still remain on Yahoo servers for ever unless removed for abuse.
