Tavern on the Meta

Four most recent questions on Meta.Math, all by different users: "Can anything be done if a question doesn't get any answers?", "Why is nobody answering my question", "What to do if one doesn't get an answer afterwards?", "Was my question too difficult? Obscure? Boring?"

Quill

Too much homework

user315433

I've learned to live with an arbitrary amount of homework floating by. But I'm supposedly better at navigation than most potential answerers...

Quill

Yes but those people aren't whining about having nothing to answer

user315433

Sure. if math is your profession, you are not tied to a computer with little better to do than browsing some Q&A sites.

user315433

That's one confused election.

Quill

Maybe we should block mods from running in elections...

user315433

Yeah, if things stay as they are now, the election would proceed (2 candidates for 1 seat) despite there being only one real nomination.

But I think the process isn't entirely automatic, some CM would push some buttons if it comes to that.

Out of curiosity, who owns this room?

user315433

Not me, that's for sure. :) See chat.meta.stackexchange.com/rooms/info/89/tavern-on-the-meta

Aaron Hall

Street cred.

user315433

The other NE election candidate (other than the sitting mod) has 4 reviews all-time. Ouch.

room owners ^^^^

@John MSE is run by SE staff, so the chat room is owned by them too, but they choose a few normal users to watch over the chatroom as well, which are the list above
