Aug 15, 2012 at 23:00 | comment | added | Harry Johnston | One other potential problem with migration is that (I believe) the migrated question keeps the age it originally had, so is liable to be overlooked by anyone who sorts questions by age - because it suddenly appears in the middle of a bunch of questions you've already looked at. (Is there a better way of seeing new questions that doesn't have this problem?) | |
Aug 15, 2012 at 6:45 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | I could see this working but would prefer to see the questions deleted, rather than just closed. The current method of deleting by votes means that it's very rare for questions to be deleted. Having those questions around, whether closed or not, just seems to attract more like them. Cleaning up has become much more important since the FAQ was effectively made null and void. | |

Aug 13, 2012 at 21:17 | comment | added | voretaq7 Mod | @BrentPabst It generally depends on the question - If something is a real gem but not on-topic for SF a migration can be a good thing, but for the most part the stuff we close around here is so awful it shouldn't be inflicted on other sites. | |
Aug 13, 2012 at 20:59 | comment | added | user9517 Mod | @BrentPabst:something like this. Welcome to Serverfault! Your question is off topic for Serverfault. It may be on topic for Superuser but please check their faq and search their site before asking. | |
Aug 13, 2012 at 20:56 | comment | added | Brent Pabst | So you close the question then instruct them to copy & paste? | |
