@user0000000 Q:A ratio: ~138:1

I used up like 25 close votes on his old questions tonight. Lots of questions asking for a tool/library and too broads.

@Doorknob it looks like he took all of 2012 off from SO too, no questions asked then that I can see

ignore that ^ .. it appears that the newest questions filter isn't working correctly.. i found some

oh i see. the newest questions in the profile show the last answer date on the right, which isn't the date of when the question was asked.

@Doorknob More than half his answers are to his own questions lol

@AsheeshR That is because all my posts got deleted by someone else, probably in some kind of system sweep. I did not delete any of my own SO Meta posts. As you can see I have the Yearling badge which requires 200 rep which is proof that I had made successful posts there. — Tyler Durden 41 mins ago

Could someone verify this?

7:51 AM

@TGMCians: I gave a cv.

is it ok to reopen a duplicated question and reclose it with a more canonical duplicate?

using my gold badge?

@TGMCians: yiiiiikes

someone submitted an answer to that crap question

@FinalContest 30 days I think?

A: How to create Android Application like Whats app?

guaranteed downvote from me.

-2

to create application like wats app according to me you will need following things :- a vps or dedicated server. telephony software like freeswitch and plivo server side coding like PHP. client side applications to interact with server which has the telephony network. Now as you see wats app ...

And gone

poor guy wasting his energy and time, but hopefully he learns the lesson.

TGMCians

thanks, yeah gone

I am referring to this question: stackoverflow.com/questions/24212823/qt-not-finding-slot

there are better duplicates than the one provided.

in fact the "canonical duplicate" of it will be closed as duplicate with my gold badge, I think.

Hmm, sounds like a decent Meta question @FinalContest. I wouldn't necessarily really have a problem with it if we end up with good canonical dupe pointers

wow: stackoverflow.com/a/7905415/2682142

such a crappy and upvoted answer to a duplicate question...

@Bart: I do not like meta for such minor things. Meta is a bike-sheddy to be honest.

@Bart: a quick search for missing Q_OBJECT has just revealed about 10 closeable questions for the same thing. :D

:D Now that's effective

mass abuse of the gold badge begins!

I wonder if the canonical threads could be put into the tagwiki for regular issues...

1) Missing Q_OBJECT

2) Missing moc processing and hence vtable issues

etc

they are getting asked many times, and it is currently a mess to find the real canonical.

8:10 AM

@FinalContest his answer is almost as crappy as the question

cv-pls stackoverflow.com/questions/18096961/…

@ThiefMaster: I downvoted that.

will click on delete tomorrow.

the question is already gone ;)

which question are you referring to? I thought my last link: stackoverflow.com/questions/7904684/…

i was referring to the "how to create a whatsapp clone" question

ok, thanks.

we have a dalriada of repeating questions; I wonder if it is the titles not matching or why people do not get the popup results...

here the guy even duplicated an existing answer from 4 years ago: stackoverflow.com/a/24217215/2682142

if I was a mod, I would even delete that answer since it is pretty much a copy/paste with slight modification.

8:33 AM

Does this edit make any sense? stackoverflow.com/review/suggested-edits/4975790

Seems rather pointless

it modifies the existing wiki quote + it breaks a sentence.

removing the "too" in the second part makes the sentence broken to me.

or maybe not, but "s/Though/Although" would have been a more useful correction. :)

I will not roll it back as a separate edit, but I will roll it back as part of an edit if I do one.

@Braiam: something like that, yeah.

heh, I began losing reps today.... some mods are having fun deleting accounts... :)

to be honest, I am not sure why rep is lost for non-puppet deletion... it was found useful once, and whether the user wishes to continue to be part of SO, that is another question IMHO. He is not deleting because he did not find the post useful.

This is a real interesting query : data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/146066/…

Like this user stackoverflow.com/users/1249338/frosty has 38,000 profile views, which is more than YourCommonSense stackoverflow.com/users/285587/your-common-sense has, yet frosty only has two posts.

ProgramFOX

Whoa there is even a 1 rep user with 4,000+ profile views.

@user0000000 that user had some special event happen to him

@Bart I see I see.

That one..that was in the pre Snowden era when we tought our online-data was safe...

@Bart reading some of those comments is making me think I might be deemed as "suspicious" since I change my display name like every month. It's a good thing no one takes CSS hacking seriously yet.

Is this a valid argument to have a shopping list question:

@zneak: I'm not sure that applies here, since I'm asking for all options (if any) and not a particular one. — Alvin Thompson 36 mins ago

too broad?

Yeah, he also asked on meta (the same question) and the OP insited that if you ask for ALL options it is not a shopping list question...

And I already pointed him to the help/on-topic point 5 just like Josh Caswell did
