I think previous message board posts made by other users in all Yahoo Fantasy Sports Leagues should be viewable by all members. I noticed that from the seasons 2011 to 2017 I can not view the messages posted by other users. I do not know why this feature was changed but I think for league history purposes it should be made viewable once again, especially for commissioners. If Yahoo Fantasy Sports wants leagues to last for years members should be able to go back and see what other member wrote on the message board, particularly when Yahoo allows us to see all past draft results, final team rosters, and even every transaction that ever took place. Please vote for this feature to be reestablished. Thank you for your time.

1. Not all initial posts and/or replies "stick." Once a comment does not post (Yahoo glitch), it is impossible to re-post it. Very frustrating and discouraging to all Yahoo participants.

2. First replies to an initial post do not "show" until page is refreshed and/or a thumb is clicked on. Also, when replies are opened (on an initial post), if a thumb is then clicked, the replies close. Probably not correct and should be fixed.

3. Reply threads are "upside down." You have to read them from the bottom up to follow the continuity in chronological order.

4. Duplicate "nicknames" and avatars must be prevented . . . largely to stop impostors from making a mockery of other legitimate posters and ruining the Yahoo "experience." Also, to distinguish the different identities of posters with the same name (i.e. There are dozens of "John"s and it can get confusing as to which one is talking). If there _are_ no two identical Email addresses worldwide, Yahoo can fix this problem.

5. The Fantasy and Gambling "stuff" should be put in its own separate section and removed from the _real_ sports information. (See #6 next.)

6. The original one-page sports format (with the comments section included and no gambling and fantasy stuff) should be restored. It is much more concise and simple/easy to use than the "new and (not) improved" version we have to suffer with now. Let the gamblers have their fun in their own section but please let the non-gambling sports fans enjoy their sports without being bombarded by the fantasy/gambling information.

7. When a link to another site is copied and pasted into a reply, it first shows in a box as it appears on the site, but . . . when "Reply" is clicked (an it posts), it omits the original first line of text that had appeared in the box.

8. The "mute" feature is permanent and cannot be reversed. Maybe an "unmute" option could be provided. Because of constant screen "jumping" . . . Mute can be hit by accident and can't be undone.

9. Posters should be prevented from giving their own posts a thumb up or down.

10. I would be nice if there were an "edit" option (to make corrections) for comments (shortly) after they are posted.

11. Flagging spammers doesn't seem to stop them. Does abuse flagging (for any reason) do any good?

Yahoo! Fantasy staff should put up a discussion board or a vote when changing their fantasy community. Quite frankly, the changes that are usually made have been frustrating for many.

Some of these changes have made it difficult for Commissioners to sustain continuity in their leagues. The last 20 years, we are still using some of the exact same categories for the 90's. Now we can't even have an in-depth look at someone's profile.

The employees appear to be overly concerned about making changes that keep the attention of a 6yr old boy over someone that has been apart of the community for longer than most of the employees that work at Yahoo! For years, the fantasy staff has reluctantly made functional changes that have been marginal at best.

Let's get serious about this community and reign in some of the employees in the fantasy department trying to justify a paycheck.

I cannot see the benefit of the p[lay by play having repeated lines, particularly in later stages of (baseball) games. F'rinstance, something like this:

M. Barnes pitching
M. Barnes pitching
M. Barnes pitching
C. Correa doubled to right, M. González to third
C. Correa doubled to right, M. González to third
J. Reddick flied out to right
J. Reddick flied out to right
J. Reddick flied out to right
Y. Gurriel flied out to right
Y. Gurriel flied out to right
Y. Gurriel flied out to right
M. González singled to center
M. González singled to center
M. González singled to center

This common example was pulled from a recent game, direct copy/paste. This glitch happens entirely too often.

It does make it unnecessarily challenging to quickly ascertain just what is going on, versus if each line was used only once.

Aggravating stuff.

Suggestion: Knock it off, already. This has been happening for years.

I run a couple of leagues and have a lot of managers to keep track of. I like setting auto-renew so that settings and history are carried over, HOWEVER because the auto-renew also automatically has the past teams joing the league I wind up spending time the first few weeks figureing out who is really in or out.

I think it would be good if there was an option for auto-renew: Yes / No / Yes Invite. Renewing the league but only inviting the past teams would help to knock off some of the zombie teams from the league and make setup in the spring a lot less of a pain. Some of the managers I know really well, some are friends of friends. Thanks CK

Fantasy Baseball should, JUST LIKE other sports, allow the retroactive ability to change line-ups. The semi-final championship game of my baseball league had myself with Mookie Betts on the bench because the night before he was rested and didn't start/play. One of 3 outfielders in the line-up did not play that day and I tried several times to make the switch that day before the game. It wasn't allowed. I contacted Yahoo several times but to no avail. Due to THAT line-up change, I lost that game. The RBI's alone accrued by Betts would have put my team to win and then by point totals alone the next week I would have won the championship game. Until this issue is fixed, I won't be playing fantasy baseball again.

If your player produces stats that your league selected for scoring, they should count. Your player's hitting stats shouldn't be omitted just because he pitches. You can make it an option to erase pitchers' hitting stats if people don't like that concept, but the default shouldn't be to erase stats arbitrarily.

I make this argument every year in some fashion, doing the same now. Yahoo wrote back to me many years ago on this, saying essentially that pitchers' batting stats aren't counted because they're not good. Unsatisfactory explanation, but since it's the only one Yahoo's provided, my response is where do you draw the line between good and bad. There are no rules saying that certain position players' stats are omitted if they're not "good" enough. Yahoo hasn't written back to me since.
