New abuse classifications: what do these ones mean?


I see that Yahoo! has changed its categories/classifications for reporting abuse. I'm wondering what these particular ones mean:

- Bodily fluids (I cannot ask questions about pee or I cannot ask questions about AIDS transmission?)

- Minors in answers (I cannot use examples of what I do with my kids when I answer questions in the parenting section?)

- Resource abuse (What is this? Dumping raw sewage in rivers?)

- Squatting (Do tell. I have no clue what this is.)

Can anyone explain these to me? All of the other abuse classifications made sense, but these left me puzzled.

jimmy, dude, send me an e-mail! :-D Don't answer my question with your question.

Am nothing more but a user here, myself, I'll take a shot:

bodily fluids -- I'm sure you can ask medical questions, I suspect this is about posts that are written just to gross people out.

minors in answers: I'm assuming they mean "Minors in Answers" that is, this site. You can talk about kids, but maybe their trying to get kids to go to a more limited site?

I take Resource to mean the resources of this system. Someone who posts 17 pieces of sludge per minute, possibly includes people who paste 7.2 gazillion-word-long answers.

Squatting: would have thought some form of impersonation, but that's a category, so, dunno.

The better question is, is there a place where the whole list is expanded on (in the sense of each item explained, not the list made bigger)?

PS: Checked discussion over at the forum, and here's a guess for Squatting that makes sense: Some people submit empty answers in order to be the first answer, then they edit and actually put their answer. This would now be an abuse category. I don't know where there's a definitive word, yet.

PPS: Hold on! Fear not. Now I read that the appearance of the list at all is a bug that will be fixed. The drop-down will go away. (My guess, it's an in-house thing, not for public consumption.)

(Not sure I like that, unless they have some interface for specifying category, but we'll have to wait a couple of days to see.)

Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
Perhaps squatting is that jerk that asks question after question after question in a category to move other questions to the bottom. That always ticks me off because they are usually stupid questions that have nothing to do with the category.

im not sure, nut they are real funny!!

Squatting??? I am also clueless but can only assume Yahoo is bowing to pressure from the the two wings of the anti-personal expression movement. The Politically Correct Stalinists and the Christian fundamentalist Fascists. If both of these gangs of losers dropped dead wouldn't this world be a happier place....oh now I'm going to get reported for "abuse" by some nasty little tattle tale...

Seems like their making this whole answers thing strict. Did you see how long is the report abuse list
