I wouldn't categorize questions that involve probable bugs as "customer service". how else would you ask how to work around a well-known, long-standing bug? or whether something is due to misconfiguration? — starball 35 secs ago

You somehow travelled away from Travel.SE which is where you likely meant to ask this. Please delete it here and post it there instead. — Shadow Wizard Love Zelda 32 secs ago

Hi Uttam Jagwani, welcome to the Stack Exchange Network Meta site! I'm not sure which search brought you here but the problem you describe will not be answered on this specific site. To get an expert's answer for the topic of your question you'll have to find and then re-post on the proper site. Check How do I ask a good question and What is on topic on the target site to make sure your post is in good shape. Your question is definitely off-topic on Meta and is better deleted here. — rene 38 secs ago

We believe that it's likely the experiments with Google one tap. I hasten to remind folks that sign ups do not equal engagement. That's a highly optimized sign up form, dumping into a largely unoptimized environment on site. Expect to see significant drop off until we can do some optimization work farther down the funnel. — Philippe ♦ 1 min ago

I'm confused as to how you could have taken the tour and yet still come to the conclusion that this was the right place to post this. — F1Krazy 21 secs ago

@StingyJack I have looked into this situation and see that Philippe contacted you directly and offered assistance. Please respond to that email or feel free to utilize the Contact Us button at the bottom of the page. — Bella_Blue ♦ 59 secs ago

@JoshZhang Does this change have any relation to this issue (which has been keeping my SE chat bots offline for the past few months)? — Ginger 25 secs ago

You should also clearly say that you’re finding a site that fits a question; or else user here maybe still misunderstanding your question( this question is off-topic in this site) although you use the tag site-recommendation. — user1176409 43 secs ago

Well, they are out of scope here. If they want to keep such questions, it’s their problem to make them worth it. — user3840170 57 secs ago

@JoshZhang Will there be any new requirements on the User-Agent passed with SE API requests? I ask because we (Charcoal/SD) encountered a problem earlier this month with CloudFlare silently giving erroneous, but successful (200) responses to requests we were making to determine if a URL was a redirect. When we used the User-Agent "SmokeDetector/git (+github.com/Charcoal-SE/SmokeDetector)" the test URL returned a 200, which is wrong, but when we changed to a User-Agent of "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:123.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/123.0" it correctly returned a 302. — Makyen 53 secs ago

@Makyen I'm unfamiliar with this particular behavior. I'll hop into the SmokeDetector channel in a bit to discuss this further because I'd like to dig into this further. — Josh Zhang ♦ 57 secs ago

Based on your screenshot it seems that there is already bold NOT on the notice. So, it's supported on MSE, how can it be used on other sites like non-English SOs? Why it doesn't work via translation? — αλεχολυτ 30 secs ago
@Nij to be sure we just need to compare two options: with and without emphasis for long enough time period. How many blatantly off-topic questions will be posted. — αλεχολυτ 7 secs ago
@αλεχολυτ I'm not sure, I'm not familiar with translations. But I can tell you that it's been that way here for a long time, I suspect longer than your definition of long enough time period, and it hasn't seemed to help a single bit. — Aaron Bertrand 25 secs ago
lolwut. It's been tried in multiple formats and arrangements and locations and it did not matter because people do not care and do not read it. — Nij 9 secs ago
If this is a problem specific to your answers on Stack Overflow, perhaps you can ask on their meta site. That way, you'll get answers from people more knowledgeable in that specific community. The frequency of AI-generate answers and how they are moderated vary from site to site. — bobble 57 secs ago
Worth noting that, as far as I'm aware, people aren't supposed to leave comments to the effect of "this looks like AI". If you are using AI, it tips you off that people are on to you and gives you an opening to amend the post to disguise that fact; if you're not using AI, it's quite insulting. — F1Krazy 41 secs ago
I would like to compare the times before and after the notice was added. Is it too complicated to give us an opportunity to try? — αλεχολυτ 13 secs ago
@αλεχολυτ I'm not rejecting anything, or suggesting you shouldn't have the opportunity to try. I'm just predicting the outcome after observing no efforts fixing the issue here for more than a decade. — Aaron Bertrand 20 secs ago
Instead of just translating it, why don't you write it from scratch? meta.stackexchange.com/questions/377058/… I think I also wrote a version of this for mods on the Mod Team. — Catija 51 secs ago
@αλεχολυτ It's supported because it's custom text that staff edits and it does actually recognize mini markdown - or in some cases, full markdown. More on that here - meta.stackexchange.com/questions/377058/… — Catija 8 secs ago
@Catija Thanks! I have no doubt that this can be done, and I have no doubt that it will be trivial to do so, at least technically. My opinions here are more about the fact that it's really not going to matter what you put there, 99% of the people who post in the wrong place won't have read it either way. — Aaron Bertrand 26 secs ago
Sure. I mean - that modal used to be a lot bigger and it had a check box that had to be ticked before you could close it... Oh, and back then, the formatting looked a lot more like what your post has - huge and obvious. I don't think it did much. — Catija 5 secs ago

@starball Questions about workarounds are really just generic how-to questions in disguise, with the caveat that the obvious approach is already known not to work. I don't have a better reference link for telling people not to post bug reports with the expectation of getting the developers' attention. If a post reads like a bug report but isn't intended as one, that's a clarity issue. — Karl Knechtel 48 secs ago
Considering you already posted on MSO, this probably doesn't need to be here any longer. :) — Catija 7 secs ago
