But regardless of where we could agree to draw the line on when a question becomes a discussion, there are excellent questions with excellent answers that are widely considered to be too broad according to the site FAQs. And yet the sites themselves seem perfectly capable of letting users accumulate and organize that info. The hostility on these sites tho is definitely one of the main aspects driving away users new and old alike. | |

Avoidance of broad discussions don't have a definitive "answer" is one of the characteristics significantly distinguishing these sites from forums and it should probably remain that way. | |
