And here I was just saying I might - just MIGHT, if the right assignment came up - write for Y!CN again.

Only now they've let every current/former contributor know that it's become "Yahoo! Voices", with new content guidelines, and oh yeah, if your old content doesn't fit? It might be "retired". Better yet, they'd like you to retire it yourself. From the email I just got:

Editing and retiring content: The above guidelines apply to new and existing content. Any published content that does not meet these standards may be returned for editing or retired. We ask that you review your own library to identify content that doesn't meet our new guidelines, is outdated, or simply isn't something you're proud to call your best work. We've added two new options to our content flag tool. "Flagging my own content for retirement" will, pending editors' review, remove that content from the site (without affecting your accumulated page views, pending Performance Bonus, or Clout score). "Flagging my own content for edits" will prompt us to return the content to you so that you can update and resubmit it.

For a fraction of a penny per page view? Ask me if I'm going to bother. I'm so glad I found other platforms to write for, that don't change their guidelines and expectations every few months...
