| Mar 29, 2013 at 0:37 | comment | added | vonbrand | @ChrisS, there can certainly be questioners who ask hard questions, which will rarely garner lots of answers (let alone acceptable ones). Punish them for that? This site is for questions and answers, if the question is interesting, and you believe you can give a good answer, please do go ahead. If the asker is ungrateful, its their own loss. | |

Like this one for php (21.8% unanswered) and linux (11.6% unanswered). For comparison, right now our site-wide unanswered rate is 17%. Of the high traffic sites, we're actually doing pretty good. | |

| Mar 26, 2013 at 23:54 | comment | added | voretaq7 Mod | @AndrzejA.Filip the "unanswered" logic should consider questions with upvoted answers as answered questions (the same way the unanswered link does) -- If it doesn't I would consider that to be a bug (i.e. "Check for a post about it on mSO and if none exists, raise the issue") | |
| Mar 26, 2013 at 22:23 | comment | added | AnFi onet.eu | I have been looking at the issue from the perspective of published tags' unanswered percentages. | |
