Why is the period taken out of Answers.com when asking a question?

According to the Answers.com guidelines for question asking, the only punctuation allowed is the question mark at the end, except in rare cases as stated in the following quote.
Special characters including commas cannot be used in questions because of limitations in our system. There should be no ampersands, dollar signs, percentage symbols, parentheses, etc. Only letters, digits, hyphens, and single quotes (apostrophes) can be used. Periods can be used only in terms such as "5.0 engine" and "Windows 3.1". Also, you can't use first person pronouns, such as saying "Can you tell me where to find ______?" Instead, you should say, "Where does one find _______?" or simply "Where can _____ be found? One time someone asked "My Dad said (so and so) - is that true?" It was automatically changed to "YourDad said (so and so) - is that true?" (It has since been corrected to read: "Some have said (so and so) - is that true?")
