> On my previous job, our software went into maintenance mode, which meant no new features. We certainly aren't ready to do that with Stack Exchange, but I do think that would be a rational decision.

Response to your response: 1. Should be tagged status-deferred. 2. Should be tagged status-review, because we know it is from my other question about this. 3. status-review or status-deferred both an improvement over now. 4. Fine, status-declined it. 5. Thank you for status-declined. I mean, why not put those responses in those questions? Why put them HERE where they won't be seen? — durron597 6 mins ago

@durron597 Seriously, I had better things to do with my afternoon.

Meh, meta isn't ideal for bug tracking

I sometimes catch a CM to bounce some ideas that I have and their possible implementation, through sometimes there are those little quirks with usability that I believe should be ironed out, I normally don't expect any response at all

@durron597 I'm clearly not understanding your question. It seems the problem is that minor features and bugs are addressed late? There are 79 questions a day on all metas. Often the discussions and support are more pressing than feature requests and bugs. It's a bit overwhelming sometimes.

Question bans, fun. Or is that the monthly limit?

To clarify: Those tags and the one to two sentences you wrote here are all that we're asking for. — durron597 49 mins ago

user202362

there is a monthly limit?

@chmod711telkitty You can lift the ban by answering questions and gaining rep. It's about the ratio.

user202362

I know

durron597

@chmod711telkitty I know one guy who it was permanent, lasted over a year

But just two upvotes on answers removed it.

Kevin Brown

@chmod711telkitty I think it's like 50 questions (I know, outrageously high and why did I consider it)

user259867

The statement quoted by chmod is for the ban based on quality, not for rate-limiting.

user259867

The limit of 50 q in any 30 days period is enabled on selected sites; not on all.

The quality of my questions is very high, just not by this site's standard :'(

@JonEricson Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that what we're dealing with here is just a simple "perfect being the enemy of the good" situation

For example, take question 3 on your list:

289

Q: Reject an already-approved suggested edit when rolling it back

I just had to roll back about a dozen incorrect suggested edits that were approved, because all they did was litter backticks all over random words and phrases and calling it improved formatting. This is just one of the less exciting cleanup tasks I've taken it upon myself to do, as these edits ...

We don't need a perfect response, which could take days or weeks of study to do the right thing

We just need any response.

@JonEricson Your two sentences and a tag is all that we really ask for, and obviously the more detailed review when we get to it in the priority list.
