Migration of MSO links to MSE links
Jan 14, 2010 at 20:20 comment added ChrisN You're right, I should go back to not caring about reputation, as I was before last night when this ordeal happened. But it's pretty ignorant to think anybody who participates on this site can truly do that.
Jan 14, 2010 at 20:11 comment added Pollyanna SO is meant to be a site that helps people solve problems - and your problem was solved. Why do you care whether your problem continues to generate reputation or not? Are you saying that having your problems solved isn't enough, that you also demand payment for having the problem in the first place? You get to keep the reputation you earned from the question prior to community wiki, and you got an answer that solved your problem. You are certainly one sore winner.

Jan 14, 2010 at 19:45 comment added alex @sliderhouserules If he downvoted plenty of posts, you'll get your rep back (there's a system in place to prevent this).

Jan 14, 2010 at 19:40 comment added Arjan "SO is meant to be a site that helps people solve problems" -- true, and reputation is secondary, especially for question askers, I think. (Though the same mechanism applies to answers which also become CW after a number of edits.)
Jan 14, 2010 at 19:31 comment added ChrisN The fact that someone followed me from this post over to SO and down-voted multiple of my answers to hurt my reputation just reinforces the flawed high-school popularity contest that is the reputation system on this site.

Jan 14, 2010 at 16:54 comment added Pollyanna Surely there's already a "multiple edits by author shouldn't CW a question" that we can mark this as a dupe of?

Jan 14, 2010 at 12:34 comment added Georg Schölly When I ask a question I don't care about the rep, but about the answers. Therefore I'm more than willing to let it be a CW if that might help me make the question visible to more users.
Jan 14, 2010 at 12:33 comment added Georg Schölly Just to make it clear: You keep all the rep that you got before making the question CW. Only votes after making it CW don't count anymore.
