Yahoo Answers. One blink and the question is deleted.?

What is happening to Yahoo answers.

I don't know how many time of late I have read a question and after writing an answer I discover the question was deleted. Sometimes its with in 180 seconds of the question being posted.

I re read the original question and cant see anything that over the top.

Has someone at Yahoo gone mad??????????

Has anyone else noticed this?

Update:

There may be a misunderstanding.

I am not talking about questions I posted.

I am talking about other peoples questions which I read and decide I will post an answer but when I do the questions are already deleted.

Update 2:

I had considered the prospect that these dumped question contained bad things, so have monitored others closer when removed. I cant see anything that would rate as bad. To me it looks like someone is rushing through complaints rather than considering each on merit.

    You may be trying to answer questions that are obvious violations of the rules. They will not last long if people are watching the boards.

    maybe a best answer was already picked or they decided to delete the question?
