| Feb 27, 2015 at 15:34 | comment | added | John Dvorak | The primary case against code trolling is the lack of originality. Does that apply here? | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 15:31 | comment | added | John Dvorak | I agree with that, but do we not want those challenges? I don't mind them, but if you present a case against, I may be swayed. | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 15:24 | comment | added | Martin Ender | @JanDvorak No he doesn't have the necessary rep. I'm not saying this one in particular will be reopened, but my point is that if we don't want challenges asking for malware then having that as a close vote reason would be better than "too broad" since the latter is a lot more subjective. | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 15:21 | comment | added | John Dvorak | There's one vote. I'm not afraid that it will get reopened. Any chance the vote comes from the OP? | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 15:17 | comment | added | Martin Ender | @JanDvorak The current one, linked to in the question. I can't tell you "why" since there are no reopen reasons. | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 15:16 | comment | added | John Dvorak | I wouldn't worry about the TOS. As for questions being incorrectly reopened - why are they? Do you have any examples? | |
