| Jul 4, 2014 at 12:00 | comment | added | Elder Geek | @Briam I agree that choosing to do nothing is lazy. I just don't happen to agree that trying to make askubuntu into UL is the right way to go for the reasons I specified in my comment beginning "As the popularity of Ubuntu continues to grow". Why are you so against this idea? Is it because you want askubuntu to be another UL? In my opinion that would be an epic mistake. | |
| Jul 3, 2014 at 19:32 | comment | added | Braiam | @ElderGeek I'm being realistic, if people understands that they should ask better questions; like in UL, where users are not afraid of closing/downvoting a bad question, ever; and that users won't babysit you, they either, stop asking questions and go somewhere else or start asking better ones. That's the realist way to go. If you select to do nothing you are not being realist but lazy. | |
| Jun 25, 2014 at 23:38 | comment | added | Elder Geek | True. It's a shame that there is an unending supply of them with more born every year. Sorry, I'm a realist, not an optimist or a pessimist. | |
| Jun 25, 2014 at 18:30 | comment | added | Braiam | @ElderGeek at very least the people asking those questions will be stopped with the quality bans. | |
| Jun 25, 2014 at 17:45 | comment | added | Elder Geek | As the popularity of Ubuntu continues to grow, driving the untrained ex windows users to our site, I doubt that the quality of questions asked will improve just because we know they should or wish they would. I'm not a pessimist, nor an optimist, I'm a realist. Anonymous Penguins viewpoint I think underscores why this is a good idea. Questions that can be answered in under 2 minutes with a google search will soon disappear if it takes more than 2 minutes to ask a question here. IMHO | |
| Jun 25, 2014 at 17:36 | comment | added | Elder Geek | @Wilf I think that's our responsibility..... | |
| Jun 24, 2014 at 22:00 | comment | added | Wilf | Perhaps there could be a notification for low-rep users about why their question could of been downvoted, and how they could improve it? | |
