Why was my Yahoo Question Removed?

Why was my question "Do you agree that Iced Bakewells are the best type of cake?" removed from Yahoo Answers?

  • I asked a similar question that didn't get removed, so what's going on? Who on Earth could be offended by cake?

  • Answer:

    It would be removed if you did not receive any answers to your question after a certain period of time, they remove it. It does not sound like you were in violation of their rules but if you were you would receive an e-mail notice from them. I would guess that no one answered therefore they delete the question.

You'd be surprised. Maybe a rival of the makers of Bakewells got really mad. Tough business this cooking lark.

Did you mention that your question may contain traces of nuts ?, If not then that`s probably the reason it was removed, Or possibly it was for not paying the VAT incurred by asking a question about cakes rather than biscuits, You evil evil tax dodging barsteward and i,m offended by your non tollerence for people who have nut allergies ( Even though i myself dont suffer from this ). The above may or may not reflect my personal opinions on this matter ;-)

Maybe a Muslim disagreed with you? They get very angry when they have difference of opinion. Maybe they thought you were being racist by not giving an example of a nice Muslim cake or pastry. I wouldn't be surprised if you receive some death threats for offending Allah you racist barstardo!

i got mine removed because i asked how many people are on answers . its not yahoo it's people on here reporting it then yahoo just remove. to tell you the truth the question lasts for 5 minutes on the top screen and as so many questions are being asked it goes onto page two not many people backdate so for 5 minutes it has someone annoyed.why even bother i never report .once my page is refreshed its gone.

I don't think it's because it was an offensive question, more that it was a question with no right or wrong answer - just because one person thinks Iced Bakewells are the best cakes doesn't make that the right answer as plenty of people would disagree....I thought Yahoo Answers was a place for finding out information, not debates (that's what forums are for)

By the way I do agree they are the best. Makes you wonder why questions are removed. I had one removed 4 days after it was resolved! Then you see some questions that are so racist and they stay on

maybe it was a response on there someone was offended by, it happens all somoene has to do is report it and its gone, not matter the reason.

I dont think it is actually do with the fact that it is offense, but that it breaks some of the other yahoo rules, such as posting a question to engage conversation
