Sep 3, 2009 at 0:44 comment added Avery Payne (sigh) wow...and so it begins. Voting to close this.
Jun 27, 2009 at 18:34 comment added Avery Payne Lesson learned: if you start a pure-play community wiki, no-one will come. If you start it, upvote people, then convert it, people will rain suggestions on you from everywhere. This is a big problem in my eyes, and I'm starting to think that the "wiki" concept needs a lot of rework.

Jun 26, 2009 at 21:31 comment added Avery Payne Whelp, it looks like another quandry: I can either punish myself by deleting or closing the question and loose the bounty I put into this, or I can answer the question myself to salvage the failed bounty attempt, but I don't like do thing that. So, what should happen? Seems like no-one is going to do anything, and I don't see why it should be fair that I'm punished for trying to do something "nice" for the community.

Jun 20, 2009 at 19:20 comment added Avery Payne Jeff, we have a quandry here. There have been no postings, but I suddenly find that at least 7 people are interested in this question and 8 more have marked it as "favorite". Guess it's time to haul out a bounty? (hauls out a 50-point chunk of flesh) ouch! That stings. Well, let's see what happens.
Jun 19, 2009 at 16:30 comment added Avery Payne Looks like we're going to close this, unless there's some action in the next 12 hours. Anyone care to post?
Jun 15, 2009 at 17:20 comment added Avery Payne Very well. Tags are nice, but I find they are a lot more effort to sift through than to have a one-stop-shop page that has all of the relevant links on it. The second goal was to do a little mental exercise, if all of the recommendations from SF were used to run a conceptualized group of servers for some purpose, what would that look like? But if everyone's for tags, I won't buck the trend, so I'll close the question. How's this: if I don't get another bite in a week's time, I'll close it, fair enough?
Jun 15, 2009 at 7:10 comment added Jeff Atwood I agree with David. Let's have some best-practices tags too.
Jun 14, 2009 at 9:25 comment added Avery Payne Then I have to open each and every one to find "the answer". Tagging is great from a "self-organizing" perspective, but it's the lazy way out, IMHO.
Jun 14, 2009 at 8:45 comment added David Schmitt A better way would be to just tag those questions "best-practices". That way you can just refer to the tag search: serverfault.com/questions/tagged/best-practices and be done with it. Much less clutter and work for all.
