Why does WikiAnswers block you if someone has the same internet provider as you?

Because - if someone using the same IP address has broken the rules - the IP is blocked. That means unfortunately, anyone using the same ISP also gets blocked - even if they didn't do anything wrong.

Why does WikiAnswers block you if someone who has the same internet provider as you was responsible for any misdemeanor?
IP Addresses are frequently blocked due to vandalism. If your IP Address has been blocked, it is only a temporary block. You will be able to contribute from that IP Address again when the block expires. However if you do not want to wait, you can register an account to contribute.

Someone using the same internet provider as you has been blocked from WikiAnswers?
Unfortunately - that happens when someone (say from a school) has been mis-using WikiAnswers, and has had to be blocked. Sadly, that affects all the users who log in from the same location. The only solution is to use a computer at home, or a friends house until the block is lifted. IP blocks are usually just a temporary thing, and service is normally restored after a short time.
