| Jun 5, 2012 at 17:40 | comment | added | yannis | @Gordon Yes it is. But from my past experiences with SO's PHP community, I was expecting a better answer to appear seconds after the question was dropped in the room, which is what happened the one time I came into the room for about the same reasons. No one is saying that the chat room was required to react differently, just that it's a bit disappointing that you reacted the way you (allegedly ;) did. | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 17:36 | comment | added | Gordon | @YannisRizos whether someone wants to take the time to provide a better or correct answer is as much up to the member as is leaving a comment to a downvote. | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:37 | comment | added | yannis | @rdlowrey Ok, don't edit. How about providing a correct answer instead? | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:35 | comment | added | rdlowrey | So, just answer with whatever you feel like. Don't worry about it, someone will edit it if it's completely off-base and you can just accumulate rep for teaching people how not to program? | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:32 | comment | added | teresko | @RobertHarvey , and here i thought that 3rd part edits, which completely change the meaning, were against the rules | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:26 | comment | added | user102937 | If the answer represents that much peril to the Stack, someone should have just edited it, and been done with it. | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:17 | comment | added | rdlowrey | @RobertHarvey I don't think vindictive voting is a good thing, but low-quality answers should be downvoted and downvoted often. Otherwise stack overflow turns into w3schools where bad information is passed off as authoritative. | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:15 | comment | added | user102937 | There's a difference between downvoting an answer, and publicizing it so that you can achieve pile-on downvotes. A vast difference. | |
| Jun 5, 2012 at 15:08 | comment | added | marco-fiset | I agree that there should be a penalty for bad answers, but if no one ever explains why it is bad, then the person will never know why it was so bad and will not learn from his mistakes. | |
