Hi, please let us know how we can improve further.

I am tired of seeing comments that show racism. I click on Report Abuse and you seem to do nothing about it. Please fix this issue now.

I am tired of seeing people writing comments that are abusive. Most of the abusive comments show racism. This has to stop. I have been insulted enough. Whenever I click Report Abuse, I expect the comment to go away. There is a reason whenever I click it. You should punish those who break the comment guidelines. Review each comment before allowing it to be posted. That way it saves us all of having to see those comments.
I have clicked on the Report Abuse button a number of times and nothing gets resolved. The comment is still there. I am tired of this. Please fix this now. This is a very big issue.

        I completely agree! This problem has persisted on yahoo for years. It's infuriating and disgusting. Every article that mentions a black person has derogatory comments about race. I have been giving a thumbs down to comments that use the word "monkey" to insult blacks for the past two hours, but it does not make a difference. People who support the indefensible comments simply give it a thumbs up. The comments are not removed even after I report them. Someone that works for Yahoo! needs to read the comments in the "Trashed combine hotel room" article. The comments section is riddled with racial slurs.

        I saw a comment from someone that said that they worked for Yahoo! and they believed that the "thumbs down" would take care of the racism and bigotry found on Yahoo! forums. The only thing is that Yahoo! has become so overrun with racists and bigots that quite often these very offensive comments get thumbs up. I personally avoid Yahoo! the majority of the time because simply the comments are far too racist or bigoted to read any more and it seems that even when people "Report Abuse" – these people still manage to make the same comments from day to day.

        Delete Brett's account. He's an obvious troll and admits it too. He says obnoxious things. I have had to report his comments many times because they were racist comments. He will keep doing it until his account gets deleted.

        There's way too much racist comments out there. Yahoo better fix this problem soon. I'm tired of seeing those racist comments.

        I have to say i have reported this poster for the last 3 months. She posts about 100 times a day, most are simply racist. She appears mostly on the golden state, la clippers la lakers boards. It is sad that yahoo does nothing. People are frustrated and so either they leave or start making vile disgusting posts and things escalate. Yahoo is to blame as they just sit back & let it happen. Why have a report abuse if you ignore it? just disgusting. You cannot tell me you have no program that keeps track of the violations. You simply refuse to enforce the rules.

        i agree. The NBA sports comments are being trolled by a user named almighty snail that makes the racist monkey comments over and over and many have reported and yahoo has done nothing. disgusting. Why have terms of service if you refuse to enforce the rules?
