| Jul 9, 2018 at 21:02 | comment | added | Wildcard | @Catija it says “Our mission.” The Code of Conduct is not a group that can be referred to with the word “our.” Your comment makes sense but that is not at all what the plain language of the CoC says. | |
| Jul 9, 2018 at 20:57 | comment | added | mmmmmm | @Catija In that case it should say so it reads as if SO's mission iod to create a community | |
| Jul 7, 2018 at 18:56 | comment | added | Catija | This is a point of confusion others have had ... the mission statement here relates only to the mission/purpose of the CoC, not of the network. They are two different things. The goal of the CoC is to outline how we expect users to behave so that the network can be "an inclusive community...". | |
| Jul 7, 2018 at 12:27 | comment | added | Ben | "This is flatly wrong. Our mission is to build a library of detailed answers" Not any more, the site owners have been telling us now for over four years that this is no longer the case. From now on, it's newbies answering duplicate questions all the way. Because "engagement" beats curating a high quality resource in cash terms. | |
| Jul 7, 2018 at 3:29 | comment | added | Wildcard | ...But yes, oftentimes a company mission statement is just unreal "PR" mumbo jumbo with no connection to reality. :) Still, in such a case there is a correct way to specify the goal, and it is never "to make money" for the reasons I describe above. | |
| Jul 7, 2018 at 3:27 | comment | added | Wildcard | @RobertColumbia, for all that your comment was intended as agreement, I think there is a crucial distinction to be made between the production of a group or individual (i.e. what they produce or put out that others find valuable) and the reward they receive in exchange for that service, whether monetary or otherwise. The only groups in the U.S. with the correctly stated mission statement "to make money" are counterfeiters and the U.S. Mint! One must produce something (whether service or goods) to exchange for money (or for goodwill or anything else). | |
| Jul 7, 2018 at 1:21 | comment | added | Robert Columbia | This reminds me of all that corporate pep-talk mumbo jumbo. "We are here to deliver best-in-class solutions as an integrated, collaborative team displaying 21st century best practices in synergy." No, we are here to make money, the synergy stuff is just for show. | |
