How do i delete my yahoo answers account without deleting my yahoo email?
You can't delete your Yahoo! Answers account completely, but you can make it nearly invisible.





All the questions or answers you've submitted that are "in voting" or "resolved" are now permanently a part of Yahoo! Answers. Yahoo basically owns those answers. You can report your resolved questions and answers to Yahoo as "violating Community Guidelines" and they may remove your content at your request, but you also risk deletion of your entire account if you acquire too many violation notices.





You can delete any questions and answers you've posted that are still "open". Make sure to remove all questions from your watch list and remove all stars you've given to other people's questions.





Next, go to the "My Profile" link next to the "Search for Questions" options so that you're viewing your own profile. Then click the "Edit My Info" link to the right of your personal stats. The rest of what you need to do will be accomplished from that screen





Remove all personal information you've posted in your profile and make sure to disable the options to contact you by email or messenger. Also make sure to disable the link to your 360 (only for those who have a 360).





Then check the boxes that make your Q%26amp;A and your Contact Network hidden from all other users. This way no one can browse through your questions, answers and Y!Answers Network. Make sure to click "Preview" and then "Save" after you've made all these changes.





That's about as private as you can get.
Reply:You don't delete an Answers account, but you can simply stop using it. The only way to cancel would be to cancel the ENTIRE Yahoo account associated with the user name. If you don't want to do that, the best thing to do is to set your Q's %26amp; A's to private and to choose the option to not allow fans or contacts, and remove any personal information you may have added to your profile. You do that by going to your profile and clicking on "Edit My Info". Once you've made the suggested changes, be sure to click "Preview" and "OK" to save your changes. Then just don't use the site any more. All questions that have been resolved and answers to questions that have been resolved can not be deleted and remain the property of Yahoo. They can always be viewed if people come upon them in the cateogries in which they were placed.
Reply:Sorry, this is not possible. If you wish to have it completely deleted, you'll have to terminate your whole Yahoo! account as well.





The best method would be to simply remove all contacts and fans, make your profile private, disable email and IM communication, and (if you wanna go through the trouble) delete any questions and answers of yours that haven't been resolved.





Of course that won't have the same effect as deleting the whole account, but it's the best you can do.
Reply:it's impossible...


you use your yahoo Email in order to be able to ask, answe and discover questions on yahooAnswers..





if you don't want to go on it anymore, just simply not participate in yahoo answers activities !
Reply:You can't and anyway, deleting your account does not delete any answers you have given and any questions you have asked (and have any type of best answer) so why bother, just stop using it is the only advice I can give......
Reply:Yahoo answer comes with your yahoo email. That's like deleting the ability to message on myspace, but keep your myspace account..
Reply:Not possible, except by violating the community guidelines and having Yahoo! do it for you.
Reply:It's not. it all comes together. Just delete all your open questions, and don't open it anymore.
Reply:I am not sure if this will work but try... getting reported a whole bunch of times. I don't know if this will also delete your yahoo email but I doubt it.
Reply:why would you wanna delete yahoo answers :(
