Is that a chinese question on pt.so?

yes

I tried looking for recently online users who have close votes privilege, so I went to SEDE and chalked up some SQL queries heroically... only to realize that it's updated weekly ._.

Why is feeds posting the same thing several times?

@Feeds :no_onebox:

Why is "this question doesn't belong here" behind "Needs Improvement"

@Tinkeringbell Its not

the last one was the blog, current one's the overflow

so it is, but only because the blog is

@EkadhSingh we can probably just discuss that here, rather than cluttering up comments

I feel like you're reading more into my comment than i intended it to say

this conversation for anyone interested

@user400654 Because idle hope is good.

for one, the mssage your quoting is lacking an important (to me) detail: "It's hard for me to disconnect from the idea that you're just posting it to earn rep, and not for the purpose of building a better knowledge base." I wasn't stating for a fact that self answers aren't "building a better knowledgebase", i was stating that my default position on such posts is that that isn't the goal of the user posting the QA pair. Whether or not i'm incorrect in the majority of cases is another matter, ;)

Users are motivated to post here by a variety of reasons, but it's rather unlikely that the gamification of the site isn't the primary driver for most lower rep users, whether they'll admit it or not

@user400654 hm, though, If someone is trying to 'farm' rep, and their QA pair is good enough, does it matter?

not at all

The question is asking whether or not bias exists against self answered questions, my argument is that it does, even if overall it doesn't significantly impact the result

Ah

@user400654 I see, I misunderstood. I interpreted what you were saying as “all self-answered questions don’t build a knowledge base” which was an incorrect interpretation, my bad.

poor @Ollie trying so hard to help :P

Lol

I think you have the high ground

They beat me to rolling back an edit ;)

at least I got to work on my flag rate ....

Hehehe

And hers. That's a lotta comments

Don't worry, I'm still 12 flags behind you :P

(for the month, for the quarter it's even worse XD)

@Tinkeringbell I try, looked like you got it... your comments always pop up a blink before mine ;)

@Ollie Yeah, I still noticed yours though, they were good too ;)

Good ;)

Your name is painted over the MSE logo on your chat popup, btw.

Oh, yeah, I think that's the same for everyone with long usernames?

Not for Journeyman

Oh, long one-word usernames.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

You know, it's not that bad. I'm more important than that logo anyways :P

uhh objection? ... never mind

Don't you dare :P

Don't worry, I know my place and when to keep my mouth shut ;)

I know you're thinking it though!

I can't stop thinking, sorry.

Sure you can. There's always a way!

Please be nice ... ;)

well, I'm thinking ... wait ... stop doing that ... right.

Hahaha :D

You'll learn someday ;)

Oh sure :D

🚽

@Ollie Tinkeringbe, or Tinkeringnottobe, that is the question

@JourneymanGeek Olo

Wait, so Journey says Lol and it gets starred?

WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR STANDARDS

Our glorious puns

Our magnificent chat pins after a chatfight

Our debonair controversial and deep musings about life

Alright, I'll sacrifice myself for the cause

Starts a fight

@M.A.R. we have... standards?

@JourneymanGeek I mean, personally I'm a fan of sitting down to a nice cup of ISO 3103 and having an SRM 2387 and jelly sandwich.

@M.A.R. @RyanM has them as you will see
