Why would a response "Perhaps because you have not educated them?" be reported? Any guesses?

    People report anything and everything if you once said something they dont' agree with. I had someone report 10 answers and 3 questions all in a very short period - apparently I pissed them off. (Including questions that were a year old) I appealed and won every single one.

    I've learned to make myself anonymous on political/religious stuff and blocking certain users I suspect are reporting me. I've also hid my history because some of the trolls love to go back through your history and start reporting stuff.

    Listen someone reported me for saying , " What?" So?? If they do crap like that TOOO many times they ban them. So he would get into Trouble. And I'm sure they already are.

    The world is full of idiots, which also explains why 39% of people will vote for Donald Trump.

    Who knows the motivations behind someone....

    That said, that sort of response is easily appealed and won. When you appeal, explain that you specifically answered the specific question asked, and thAT USUALLY DOES THE TRICK

    It depends on the question, I suppose.
