| Oct 24, 2015 at 4:47 | comment | added | theB | The answer is posted on MSO. Let me know if the personal pronoun that I arbitrarily chose for you in that answer is the correct/preferred one. Thank you again for your input. | |
| Oct 24, 2015 at 1:44 | comment | added | D.W. Mod | Thanks, @theB, I appreciate how you are looking out for other folks and providing them constructive advice to help them have a good experience on Stack Exchange! I'll look forward to your answer on MSO. | |
| Oct 24, 2015 at 1:42 | comment | added | theB | The cross posting issue is another thing entirely. It's rude to use the shotgun approach to asking. There's an impatience to it that is troubling. The sites here are not instant answer factories. This will definitely be made explicit in the answer I post on the MSO question. It may take some time to put together a detailed answer for that, but I'll comment here when it's posted, so that you and the users here can look at it and make sure that I didn't miss anything important. (Last comment. :) Sorry for spamming your inbox there.) | |
| Oct 24, 2015 at 1:41 | comment | added | theB | That said, the possible examples that you proposed give a good base for advice to give anyone, not just this particular user, before sending them here to ask. It's a real disservice when we send people off to ask a question only to have it immediately downvoted and closed. While the same general rules (search first, word carefully, etc) are the same everywhere, the specific standards of each site vary, and I may not be able to pick out some of the finer points as an outsider to a particular site. (One last comment coming.) | |
| Oct 24, 2015 at 1:41 | comment | added | theB | Sorry about burying the general case question. Arguably that's the more important question to ask. I agree that some questions won't fit in anywhere in the network. The 11 hours I've had to think about that question have also made me completely sure about how tough it would be to make it fit, in its current form, on any site. (More to follow) | |
