Need to focus more on the bigger picture with such questions

| Jul 24, 2014 at 14:57 | comment | added | Chris S Mod | Better, probably have to be good enough. Maybe reword slightly to "are off-topic because the answers they attract are low quality, opinionated, spam, or become obsolete quickly", just to shorten it up a bit. | |
| Jul 24, 2014 at 14:54 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | @HopelessN00b It's the same post. I just linked to the answer there, and the question here. Easy enough to change. | |
| Jul 24, 2014 at 14:52 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | The answer you linked to @TheCleaner is a much better explanation. I think it should be linked in the close reason (slightly edited and posted elsewhere, perhaps). | |
| Jul 24, 2014 at 14:50 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | Good point. When I find one, I'll link to it. If nothing better comes along I'll just link to the meta Q&A I linked to in the question. Ideally, I'd like to have a meta Q&A that explains how to ask this sort of question correctly, such as the one on SU. | |
