Am I gonna lose my account?
I asked the same question 3 times but in different categories because they all work for it and I'm desperate for an answer. I wasn't trying to spam.. I just need answers from the people in these different areas.. I've done this before.. I don't do it frequently.. Is this bad? Is it grounds for account deactivation? I wasn't aware of this rule... I have looked at the community guidelines before but I guess I missed this rule? What should I do? Should I delete the questions? I don't want my account to get taken away... But really need an answer the the question I posted

There's really no set number of violations to warrant the permanent suspension of your Answers account. Not even Customer Care will give you the information, as they keep all this extremely secret.
All it takes is just a rapid succession of several violations in a short period of time or a very serious one for this to happen. (CG violations are spam, insulting other users, vulgar language, underage accounts, bit torrent sites, etc.) When a person gets repeatedly reported, their account will be reviewed for a possible suspension and could happen without any given warning. I strongly recommend that you must read up on the Community Guidelines right away. Reading up on the rules will just take only a few minutes, and it's a very small price to pay to keep your account from being suspended. This is to also ensure your future participation here.
Also, it can just take only one-just one-violation of the Terms of Service that can warrant the sudden deactivation of their entire Yahoo account without any given warning whatsoever. (TOS violations are impersonating, posting malicious links, illegal activities, controlled substances, etc.) That means you'll risk losing access to your account and whatever was stored there. You may also need to read up on the TOS to ensure this doesn't happen.
Keep in mind Yahoo, under the Terms of Service, must legally protect itself by not allowing staffers to get into specifics on what I've just explained to you. Just leave them alone about this issue.
Reminder: Sticking to the rules can help you avoid incurring violations in the future that can result in the suspension or sudden deactivation of your account. When receiving a violation email, please heed their warnings and take them seriously. They want you to stop the violations immediately. Simple as that.
When you need to start worrying is when you get multiple questions and answers reported within a short period of time.
Don't worry, you wont, you would of had your account suspended immediately, also you would of gotten suspended if you were reported for those thing, but since you didn't get reported and since you still have your account its not likely you will get suspended.
You are fine relax and don't use this for a few days
