| Mar 30, 2010 at 20:46 | comment | added | Gnoupi | @Arjan - I think that the point in Jeff's answer is for 3000+ not especially to have fun, like I'm kidding about, but rather to run the site (and close off topic, duplicates, so) without moderators. And having moderators closing everything encourages 3000+ to simply rely on them and not do their part. | |
| Mar 30, 2010 at 20:27 | comment | added | Arjan | @Jeff et al: actually I only vote to close to show I support the moderators (and the site guidelines). I really wouldn't care if things are closed before I even read it. (Though I could understand that those having moderator-powers might want "Add a way for moderators to cast a normal, non binding vote" from meta.stackexchange.com/questions/41062/… implemented) | |
| Mar 30, 2010 at 10:26 | comment | added | Jeff Atwood | @random I generally don't vote to close until at least one other user has, too.. unless it's egregious. We want to encourage 3k users to flex their mod powers too! | |
| Mar 30, 2010 at 8:57 | comment | added | random | It's a case of Fastest Jan Itor of the West. But you're right. 3k users need their fun too. | |
| Mar 30, 2010 at 8:44 | comment | added | Gnoupi | @random - it is doomed because certain mods are not allowing 3000+ users to have their fun anymore :P | |
| Mar 30, 2010 at 8:20 | comment | added | Ivo Flipse | "at least the ones which are possible to solve" You hit the nail on the head! A lot of the unanswered questions on SU asking for a magic eight ball answer... | |
| Mar 30, 2010 at 8:06 | comment | added | random | They also think SU is doomed because certain mods are not allowing it to become a cesspool that Yahoo! Answers is. | |
