Malaysia Netbook Review and Notebook Review

Why was my completely harmless question deleted?

The subject was "Is it probable to Hackintosh an Asus eee Personal Computer 1001p?" we review the complete Community Guidelines as well as my subject does NOT violate any rules. For those of we who consider the Hackintosh plan is illegal, greatfully sense about law prior to we contend such silly things. FYI: Breaking the an EULA is NOT ILLEGAL as well as NOT antagonistic to others

If any Yahoo Answers mod is celebration of the mass this, greatfully insist to me what we have finished wrong. I’m removing ill as well as sleepy of Yahoo mods upon the energy outing only deleted questions left as well as right since they privately consider it’s wrong.


There are 5 suggestions to question “Why was my completely harmless question deleted?”

  1. Your question(s) or answer(s) were removed from Yahoo Answers most likely because they was against the Community Guidelines or it was illegal. Yahoo Answers staff removes answers and questions that violate the Community Guidelines or are illegal at regular intervals (they have an automated program that does this), and they manually check the removals over every once in a while.

    Another reason why your question(s) or answer(s) got removed is because a "troll" reported it. This happens fairly often to people, especially when they ask questions in the P&S category. Just ignore it and move on if this happens. If you know who reported the question by chance (although this is highly unlikely), block that user.

    Questions are also removed after 4 days of having no answers, or if someone votes "No Best Answer" for a question of yours.

    You can always appeal questions or answers that are removed in violation of the Community Guidelines within a week of their removal, although you are most likely not going to win the appeal.

    Hope this helps :)

  2. i think you answered your own question, either it was someone on a power trip of low intelligence, or someone reported your question,yes i know its fairly silly as it is a harmless enough question, but at just a quick glance some of the words you used could be taken as offensive,because like i say at a glance it looks like your asking a sexual question. i know its annoying but try to remember that different cultures and areas use yahoo answers and what may be a normal word to you may be seen as offensive to someone else,try to see the funny side, i had a answer reported because i said ‘i dunno really’ which to me meant’ i don’t know’ and even though i appealed it was upheld…

  3. Try appealing here:

    It happened to me to I appealed 2 or 3 and times and they had to restore my answer.

  4. Yahoo Moderators are all users of Y/A. You could go to the Forum ,where knowledgeable users can help. Usually staff will stop by to check in too.

    Maybe someone saw it as "hack into…" and confused it.

  5. Possibly trolls reported it. If you received a violation notice although some times you don’t : All it takes is 2 "trusted" members to report you and the bots remove it appeals are often a waste of time and points. however if you are very sure you have been wronged by all means appeal it, the link is below. Some suggestions, If you haven’t done so, edit you info so your questions and answers are hidden that way it makes it harder for trolls who enjoy reporting violations or presumed violations to stalk you. Also, avoid pages with controversial subjects such as religion, homosexuality, racism, pornography, any hatred, downloading movies or music, questions about drugs even soft drugs, etc. Even the polls section. Avoid anything that may be remotely considered illegal Don’t give smart, flip or sarcastic answers nor use any profanity. Do not use language you wouldn’t use when talking to your grandmother and that should keep you safe in that regard. Referring others as a moron, stupid idiot Nazi, retard or anything in that vein is derogatory and insulting to other members and clearly against the guidelines. Pay attention to the definitions of "chatting and solicitation , and what constitutes a question" Never insult another member, call them names, threaten, harass deliberately mislead or post anything in questionable taste.
    Should you have axe to grind, agenda or cause to promote be it political religious social or anything similar, no matter how well intentioned you may be, this is the wrong place to promote it.
    If you believe you are being stalked go to other categories. You might also consider changing your avatar and i.d.

    If your posts show any semblance or insinuation of bigotry, hatred, sermonizing or ranting you can pretty much assume they will be reported and deleted.

    Yahoo will not give any specifics when a question or answer is deleted.

    Here is the link to appeal: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/answers/first_appeal.html;_ylt=AqSixcLqgNB6qjbOqvw87AVs5SN4?from_url=http%3A%2F%2Fuk.answers.yahoo.com%2Fquestion%2Findex%3Fqid%3D20090927213232AAg7HxB
