@BenBrocka: It's worse but not nearly as common, and only happens on questions - people answer with Try this: [jsfiddle link] all the time.

| Oct 10, 2012 at 17:36 | comment | added | user229044 | @WesleyMurch Yes, because the current system of "arguments, long comment threads and manual editing" sounds so appealing. Prevention would be the ideal solution. I'm tired of seeing questions full of nothing but useless jsfiddle links, and more tired still of seeing these questions rewarded with upvotes and answers. Users are constantly encouraged to continue this bad behaviour by other users who don't know enough to downvote them and withhold answers to bad questions. | |
