@bjb568 Clearly, someone has stolen your brain, and replaced it with a squeak toy. This is not your fault. You didn't ask for that to happen. But it seriously limits your ability to think critically, to reason effectively, and to tie your shoes. So, yes - you may get some declined flags every now and then. It's okay. You're doing your best.
I was thinking about getting a dump of stack exchange posts, turning them into a sparse bag of words representation, and labelling them with Site and/or tags, to create a machine learning dataset
Or is it the brink of closure? And "you" is not "you"…

Another problem with english is that it's a sticky web globbed on to physical things. To is "used to introduce the second element in a comparison". You have to know english to know english. Knowing another language or hearing language is "knowing" enough since it's a globby blobby recursive web.
@user0000000 It happens fairly often. If the user only replaces tags without fixing other issues in the post, reject. If there are no other issues besides the tag, approve. It's a lost battle though, trying to reject, with the robo reviewers.

I introduced my team members to Stack Overflow so that they can read questions, help others, and build their skills. But now this has gotten out of hand. I have a team of 5 developers, and 3 of them makes at least 150 points on average. (This is mostly in the office hours ranging from 9 to 6)

If the user is new and has asked a couple of questions without any one accepted you could point out that functionality to him. If I do I normally post a link to the help topic on it
It seems that some users have gone through many of their old answers, and left default comments on them... like this
Did this answer solve, or help you to solve the problem in your question? if so, please accept/vote this answer or add your own answer with the solution you found. See these instructions for info how to accept answers; thanks! — Sahil MittalJun 10 at 17:05
Or the misbehaving user might still get an IP outside that range. My IP range varies very much, sometimes it starts with 9*, sometimes with 8* but I've also seen it starting with 1**.
@CapDroid Yes, indeed, or just an innocent user who unforeseen gets the banned IP assigned.

@Merlin069: please use the duplicate flagging system instead of avoiding it if I may ask you. Even yourself gave an answer for this type of question in the past. — Final Contest42 secs ago
not sure why two people wanted to reopen it.
in general, is it revenge if an OP upvotes all the answers except the one's who closed the OP's question with binding vote as duplicate to the thread with the answers?
:)
I guess it is likely that the evil closer will not get upvotes in that case in the other thread if it happens to be the same person :)
If you are that afraid of downvotes, don't close it. The closer has always appeared. Just because it's one person on dupes makes it no different than 5 on another close type
it is a little bit different... i think the closer name appears in larger letters. and if someone disagrees with the closer then it's easier for them to decide who is responsible for the thing they disagree with
but making the closer anonymous isn't a good thing, because then people can close things without being accountable for it
making them accountable adds that little bit of extra effort they need to make when deciding if something is close worthy. if they were anonymous they might not think about it so much and end up closing things they were less likely to have closed otherwise
it's also a bit nicer for the person who had their question closed, because they can feel like a person did it
maybe making the font size a little smaller on the closer name will make it less threatening. it must be quite scary for them to see Final Contest in big letters with a gold dot next to it
a problem with being accountable to moderators only is that if the moderators are your friends and/or like you for whatever reason then they have the opportunity to turn a blind eye to your activities. also, and more importantly, their involvement is only required when someone raises the closure as a problem, something that isn't easy to do as far as I can tell
unless there were mechanisms in place to alert moderators to the existence of overzealous closing practices, they would likely never know
even better than making the font smaller would be to hide the name of the closer and require the user to take an action, such as clicking a link, to find out who the closer is, i mean, does it really matter who closed it, if someone cares enough to find out they can click the link
though you could argue that doing that is pretty much the same as making them anonymous, because i imagine most people wont care who closed somthing
so they wont bother to find out
they way it is at the moment, the closer of a question is boldly spelled out in large letters
so to them, you are the cause of their question being closed
i suggest: marked as duplicate (in bold) This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question. closed by <username> (in smaller letters)

This questions isn't too broad and I am sure that there are some resources out there that can be linked that I just haven't found or an answer on "look at this file" etc. — falcontoast13 mins ago
