| Nov 15, 2009 at 16:57 | comment | added | splattne | I don't like loaded question like this one. It contains a questionable presupposition (as in "Have you stopped beating your wife?"). I think meta.stackoverflow.com is a better place for discussions. | |
| Nov 15, 2009 at 1:05 | comment | added | Joseph Kern | I wrote the "You're not eating lunch at your desk" question ... @SpaceManSpiff I feel your pain, I usually give up on serverfault every 2 months. Honestly, about 80% of these questions are boring, and can be found through proper use of google. I would encourage you NOT to go, and start asking questions you want to see: be the change. I care about the craft of my profession, I care about the users I support, and most of all I care about using my work to make me a better person. There are many elements that make a SysAdmin, & most of them aren't technical. I hope you enjoyed your bike ride. :-) | |
| Nov 14, 2009 at 20:11 | comment | added | mh | I think the subject is probably appropriate for further discussion, but the way it was expressed is not doing the OP any favours. It would need some heavy editing before I would vote to reopen. For what it's worth, when deciding on a close vote I take each question on it's own merits and in context. If it seems obvious that it's a home user problem from that context then SU is definitely more appropriate. | |

| Nov 14, 2009 at 3:39 | comment | added | joeqwerty | Bravo, SpaceManSpiff. I haven't been here long but I've seen plenty of examples of arrogance, condescension, and non-professional behavior. If I'm being perfectly honest, I'm guilty of it as well. I'd like to see more of a community based on the intent and spirit of the questions\answers. We need less snide comments, haphazard and arbitrary downvotes, etc. As my boss tells me "You have a massive but fragile ego". I suspect we all do and that might be at the root of the problem here. | |

| Nov 14, 2009 at 2:25 | comment | added | xenoterracide | I agree with you that people should answer the questions asked and not give you a bunch of crap you didn't ask for, or at least give a real answer with the opinion. Trust me Developer's are worse than Admins. | |
| Nov 14, 2009 at 2:23 | comment | added | xenoterracide | Maybe we get this way because people call us blaming us for problems that we can't do anything with. Customer: why don't I see the dns changes I asked for ... site's not visible ... a day ago. Me (checks and everything looks fine: what ISP? Customer: AOL. ME: AOL implements non standard caching... Customer: Well that's not acceptable it has to be so and so you're supposed to suport... ... Me: I'm sorry you'll have to talk to AOL, we can't force them to conform to standards. Customer: ... ... Me: I'm sorry I have to let you go Ma'am. | |
| Nov 14, 2009 at 2:14 | comment | added | Zoredache | Almost all the points you are trying to make have already been asked and debated on meta. I understand you are frustrated, but posting this type of question is not the way to handle it. | |
