Im not an english native speaker so I used the term forum, which at my english knowledge was the best I could use to describe the site. I apologize for any inconvenient or sentimental/psychological problems the word forum may have caused to you. Besides, I think @Chopper3 pointed that out for me. | |

The distinction is very important, as it determine much of how the sites work. I will admit however that Meta SF is a bit looser and we do tend to have discussions disguised as Qs and As. | |
| Jun 13, 2012 at 20:15 | comment | added | Rhyuk | @Chopper3 I dont. Actually I tried my best to describe my problem and show that Ive done previous research in the topic (as the rules say), and I felt as if my question was "stupid" or "worthless" when I actually had a serious concern. But I'll keep that in mind, and thanks all of you for the time you took to answer. :) | |

Oh and we're not a forum by the way. | |
| Jun 13, 2012 at 18:10 | comment | added | Bruno | Presumably, you're referring to this question on SO. Note that SO and SF are different. In addition, downvotes don't come from moderators but from anyone with 125 reputation score or more (I think). I'm not sure what led these users to downvote the question, perhaps the fact that you hadn't realised it wasn't about bash but ksh, others seem to think it's off-topic too. | |
