Dec 16, 2011 at 1:53 comment added John Gardeniers @aaron, your comparison with a parking ticket is very appropriate. In this instance the question was left in the wrong place. Incidentally, a Windows file path is just like a Linux file path, except on a Windows machine. It really is that simple.
Dec 5, 2011 at 21:24 comment added Aaron Newton I guess I was just suprised when I got a closure/-1 as I have never had this for any of my other Q/As on any of the Stack Exchange sites before. I would compare it to the feeling to getting a parking ticket.
Dec 5, 2011 at 17:08 comment added Sven @aaron.newton: I think you shouldn't ask questions like that in the future on SF (as I think closing as "Not a real question" was warranted), but you shouldn't be afraid of asking questions here. A close vote isn't meant personally, it's just that we feel that the question isn't a good fit for our site as we envision it. No one will think bad about you because of a closed question, especially since you demonstrated that you thought about the subject beforehand and didn't just wildly typed a random question at the first site with a text field Google showed you (which happens too often here).
