| Dec 30, 2011 at 21:31 | comment | added | Tangurena | @YannisRizos, I was answering the question, so that even if it got migrated - which it didn't - it would have an answer. "We" are too much like barracks-room lawyers and are too uptight about what belongs where. The person who closed it is an admin, and she could have migrated it herself to SO. I suspect when I hit 10k rep, I'd have access to the tool to migrate it to where it belongs myself. | |
| Dec 30, 2011 at 21:16 | comment | added | yannis | This forum has a lot less traffic (in the form of new questions). Yeap but it's not a replacement for SO. If people knowingly ask off topic questions here, because somehow they feel they won't get answers on SO, that's blatant abuse. The two sites may belong to the same network but have distinct and different scopes. And neither of them is a "forum". One of the questions I was looking at here, belonged on SO ... the question was downvoted and closed. So what? Flag the question for moderation attention and ask for it to be migrated. Downvotes don't follow the migration. | |
