Still too subjective. Power/ego-trip on this site is rampant (I don't mean you, just in general). SF needs to adapt or it will die. Spiceworks is already taking over, from what I'm seeing.

Thanks, @HBruijn. I think you stated the issue exactly (at least for my question, in particular): "..found it interesting." This is ridiculously subjective criteria for a question! I am a SysAdmin for a business with on-premise Exchange, so Exchange interests me. However, I have little-to-no BSD experience, so a question you post about UNIX may not interest me in the slightest. Does that mean it's invalid or unworthy of SF? Of course not!

Glad to see I'm not alone in my opinion here, far from it actually: meta.serverfault.com/questions/6701/…

Sick of "unprofessional" questions
Wow. Some of you are being pretty pretentious here, don't you think!? There isn't exactly some magical upper-echelon of IT experience that you reach where you know everything! To the contrary, working in IT professionally means you NEVER stop learning! If you do, your career dies. My background is in support (SysAdmin now), so perhaps being empathetic to users is why this is a touchy subject to me. At any rate, maybe step off your high-horse for a minute and try to see it from another perspective next time. Who knows, you might just learning something yourself.

You guys can downvote my comment all you like, but I objectively have a valid point that needs to be addressed if you want to be the slightest bit inclusive to newcomers, as Tim said.

@HBruijn, Regardless, whomever they are, there was still no justifiable reason for putting my question on hold. Re-read it and tell me if you can find one, but I personally cannot.
