@animuson Interesting: so, if mod reviews are binding and they vote Looks OK from the LQP queue, is the flag just disputed?

Mostly, but I am agnostic here.

It’s a bit OCD to be chasing down ancient questions that were left open under a different culture, and trying to get them closed.

That said, you just look at the huge list of things that got truly deleted despite hundreds of votes, rather than historical locks, and it is startling what used to be considered ok.

@Unihedron perhaps, but that Sumer guy was annoying as hell

me how

I am thinking of asking a question on meta but I am not sure it would be a good fit.... the thing I noticed is that the more you participate in both SO and META the more youre exposing yourself to being a target of "random" downvotes.. Ie. if you don't participate as much you will receive less downvotes...

I remember when I first started and didn't participate in meta and just once in a while answered a question or two on SO... I never have had any "random" downvotes but almost two years later I occasionally encounter "random" downvotes which is becoming really annoying.. I know you can just not worry and move on but this is happening more frequently now and just annoys the shit out of me

Infinite Recursion

@Unihedron Unfortunately the common factor was limited to "turkish", no delight :(

me how

It seems that some people are taking things too personally and in the spirit of a good Q&A site the downvotes on GOOD answers are unexplainable

It's a slap in the face when you spend your own time to build this great library of good questions and answers and someone who doesn't like "you" just goes around downvoting your efforts... that system is broken in my opinion

Infinite Recursion

@mehow meta = MSE or MSO or both?

Stijn

@mehow Are you sure it's because of your meta participation? I've also received a handful of downvotes so far on older answers that were well-received without previous downvotes but I never thought of linking it to Meta activity. Just the longer you spend time on SO, the higher the chance of receiving a random downvote.
