If Yahoo wanted to delete groups based on that criteria they'd have
nuked them all during the update. You cant search for adult groups
at all, unless the owner was foolish enough to NOT place them in the
adult category.
Sherman was screwed by people other than Yahoo. His groups name has
been getting posted all over the chan forums, some of which are known
for 2 things: Hating furries, and screwing with other people for
fun. Plus he's been getting posted on all the shota boards as well.
He probably had so many complaints in the first day from all the
people showing up to make trouble that Yahoo nixed him to be safe
rather than sorry. Most all group deletions are due to a complaint
by your own members. They may have joined specifically to complain
until the group got shut down but Yahoo wont see it that way.
