Well I had a one word answer: "no" removed today; and I also had a question asking for advice on how to punish my daughter removed. Neither were against policy?

I've seen this exact message Many times that I now wonder if they just copy and paste it every hour

It's probably an algorithm written to select and delete any signs of a personality, especially humor. Hurry up thought police...erase this message before the children start to learn the art of sarcasm.

Can I ask my question directly to the Ask user community?
Before asking the Ask community directly we check to see if your answer already exists, which we would then show immediately on the results page. Simply ask your question in the search box as you normally would and we’ll check for answers. If you need more information, or want a personal answer, you'll be able to ask the community from there.

Yes I understand that. And you also answered my original question. It's because of a lack of intelligence on teh mods parts.

Generally because there is no system or rules in place that they use. Everyone of them does as they please....

They are pretty sensitive. If you have any amount of sarcasm or sense of humor they block your answer. Sniff sniff
