| Mar 19, 2015 at 7:34 | comment | added | Wrzlprmft | @Shog9: I got that. But what I was trying to describe is that the problem is so generic and detached from the topic of the site that I cannot even conceive a reasonable answer to it that is not generic. Seriously: How could an answer to this question be specific to SO? | |
| Mar 19, 2015 at 1:54 | comment | added | Shog9 | As I said, just because the questions apply everywhere doesn't mean the answers will, @Wrzlprmft. | |
| Mar 18, 2015 at 22:37 | comment | added | Wrzlprmft | @Shog9: Take for example Please clarify "score" vs. "reputation" on tag badge descriptions. Badge description are as well or as bad understandable to SO users than to other SE users. And even if they weren’t, changes to this description would apply universally to all of Stack Exchange. I see nothing that is specific to SO in that question. Similar thoughts apply to all other examples I posted. | |

| Mar 18, 2015 at 20:53 | comment | added | Shog9 | I threw salt over my shoulder a week or so ago, @gnat - let's attribute it to that. | |
| Mar 18, 2015 at 20:52 | comment | added | Shog9 | Clarify your question please, @Wrzlprmft. Why would you think it wouldn't apply to the questions you identified? | |
| Mar 18, 2015 at 20:10 | comment | added | gnat | "techniques that work on sites that get 10 questions a day" -- do you by chance know if one of these techniques was used here? "it looks like magic, but for over ten days since I posted this, I have seen no 'problem' questions anymore..." | |
| Mar 18, 2015 at 19:30 | comment | added | Wrzlprmft | 1) just because a question could be asked in regards to every site doesn't mean the answers would apply equally everywhere – I agree with that, but how does it apply to the example questions posted in my question? 2) Just as before, anyone is free to ask questions on MSE if they want a network-wide audience – But right now, I get a much bigger audience on MSO (probably even with respect to users of the whole network, as a lot of users from other site are also active on SO); this can hardly be the point. | |
