Sep 14, 2011 at 1:29 comment added Jeff Atwood generally this is not what we mean by "very low quality" -- very low quality questions are NOT well worded, they are barely intelligible and would take TONS of invasive editing to fix, to the point that deletion is a more effective solution.
Sep 13, 2011 at 19:44 comment added voretaq7 Re: dangerous answers update, If you have sufficient rep you can see the deleted dangerous answers (nudge nudge, wink wink, join the site and stop being a FREAKIN' LEACH ya damn Googlers!). My fear is always having the dangerous answer pop up in a google search - makes us look bad IMHO

Sep 13, 2011 at 14:20 comment added voretaq7 I agree that bad answers should be kept, along with their comments though I may draw a distinction between "bad" or "wrong", and "Dangerous and Destructive" ("Q: How do I free up disk space?" -> "A: rm -rf /") - The latter should be expunged and the answering user horsewhipped in the town square.
