    What is happening is abusers are creating multiple yahoo ID's and using a common browser plugin to allow them to log in to all accounts simultaneously.

    It looks like if 5 ID's report a message for abuse, said message will disappear.

    Yahoo, this makes it very easy for individuals to wipe out legitimate posts for any reason at any time.

    Restrict it so that it needs to come from unique (non-proxy) IP addresses, right now its a loophole trolls are using to play god on these message boards.

    We know of several business associates whom have had their longtime emails and Yahoo accounts deleted by this abuse of Yahoo's automated system. Many of those former Yahoo members have attempted, to no avail, to restore their accounts only to be given the run around by Yahoo's non-customer care department. Many of those Yahoo members were premium email account members, who are professionals, who will never return to Yahoo.
