| Jun 8, 2017 at 21:19 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @FrankR. Nearly 5 years after it was posted? Not really. This boat has sailed, I'm sorry. | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 15:59 | comment | added | Joe R. | Is there any chance my question could be migrated back to SO[Informix]? I feel it lost audience and feedback when it got migrated to DBA. | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 15:54 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @FrankR. Not you. People who did the migrating. "Oh there's a new site that looks like a better fit, MIGRATE ALL THE THINGS". | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 15:50 | comment | added | Joe R. | We weren't "excited" to see my question get migrated away from SO. More like irritated to have to keep track and visit yet another new site. | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 3:04 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @FrankR. Migrations to new sites are discouraged (and impossible in case of private betas, if I recall). Flooding a site with questions from elsewhere doesn't help grow a new site or its community. There's some margin of error, though, that's true. Having said that... DBA is over 6 years old. I don't know if your experience from back in the day is representative of now. Might be that new launches were more noticeable then since the network was a lot smaller and folks got excited, if nothing else. | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 3:02 | comment | added | Joe R. | this is the question i am referring to. Read the comments: dba.stackexchange.com/questions/21000/… | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 2:56 | comment | added | Joe R. | was just wondering whether migration is being used for populating questions on new sites. this happened to me when i posted an sql related question in SO [Informix]. The question was perfectly living in SO, and it got migrated to the then recently created Database Administrators site, and we all complained about it. | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 2:50 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @FrankR. Not sure I follow... Your question seems unrelated to what the OP brought up or my answer. Sounds like a question for Meta SO? (Although I probably wouldn't phrase it quite that way. :) Maybe something more in the "how do we prevent unnecessary migrations?" idiom.) | |
| Jun 5, 2017 at 2:44 | comment | added | Joe R. | There's been a long standing ingrained habit by most SE users to post questions in SO, when they really belong in another site. However, there are cases when the questions really belong in SO, and are unfairly moved to other sites. Has SO grown into such a huge unmanageable monster? | |
| Jun 4, 2017 at 19:55 | comment | added | Adam Lear StaffMod | @ShadowWizard Eh, that's a whole different ball game. None of the changes for ProgSE were motivated by a drop in the stats referenced in this question. | |
| Jun 4, 2017 at 19:45 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | Worth mentioning what happened to Programmers. While not closed or "degraduated", it did go though very major changes. | |
