| Feb 26, 2014 at 22:37 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | Locked shopping questions which have gone out of date are a whole other issue. Feel free to ask your own question about them. | |
| Feb 23, 2014 at 17:58 | comment | added | John Dibling | -1: questions asking for software recommendations are off-topic, not because they attract spam as you assert, but because they solicit opinion. Stack Overflow attempts to avoid opinion and the resultant chatter, and focus instead on fact. | |
| Feb 23, 2014 at 7:11 | comment | added | user9517 | Oh dear what a whinge which fails to answer my questions entirely too. If you feel strongly that a question is incorrectly closed, you can always ask your own question here on meta to discuss it. Personally I'm not a fan of leaving stuff like that hanging about because it does become outdated. | |
| Feb 23, 2014 at 4:47 | comment | added | mdpc | Who "sucks" at closing questions? Everybody? Generally, five votes from anybody with sufficient reputation can put a question into hold stsatus ... not just the SE serverfault site administrators....and then it goes into another queue needing more votes from the community before it is finally closed. Sometimes the serverfault administrator (who are voted on by all of us) need to address specific questions for specific reasons for the benefit of the serverfault commmunity. | |
