@gnat: He looks smart (i.e. He wears glasses), but for a product lead and a former Microsoft employee, he's asking very pedestrian questions on Stackoverflow.com.

Q: Reason for downvoting should always be clarified in order to help improve question

EricPJWI suppose this may belong to meta but I am unable to post there, so please move it there if you have the permissions to do so I have been following this site for a few months and also asked a couple of questions over different periods of time. I find it very helpful that people can exchange so ...

I enjoy being able to down-vote posts I don't care for without worrying about retaliation. And I really enjoy being able to leave honest comments without worrying that they'll be justifiably interpreted as evidence that I've down-voted. I would not like to see the two systems linked. — Shog9 ♦ Jun 28 '09 at 19:36

@jmort253 Completely agree I know people who like Tao and Phi but for me there is nothing that beats good old fashion Pie!
You know what else would be fun... go with a name like 3.1428102249125 - and when people point out that it is wrong just say dangit I am not PI!

@JimG. wearing glasses and being a microsoft employee have 0 correlation to whether or not someone is or could be a spammer

We'll probably get more of that spam here, because specifically spamming in that way is an Amazon Mechanical Turk job (see screenshot)

@gnat Thanks for the heads up. If you see spam, just flag it, and we will take care of it. If there seem to be accounts that are connected to spamming, feel free to point that out with a custom flag.

@jcmeloni Nice detective work! How the heck did you find that? I doubt you're looking for a career change to spamming!

@jmac haha, no. It was completely random. I was doing some research on mechanical turk this morning and I had flagged a spammy answer as spam the day before (and I have a good memory).
