@DannyBeckett: pardon? aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/16690/…
how can you claim that those are two different answers? they both say "yes, for example you have: ..."

anyone feels like helping me understand the above? to me the user is simply cheating the sistem to get double rep.

@Federico the answers are different and the system allows you to answer a question multiple times
if he is trying to game rep by not combining them, he's only up +20 rep

Federico
@casey I am asking for someone to explain me how those answers are different
are you suggesting that reirab's answer should be split in two?

Q: What is the official etiquette on answering a question twice?

Edward TanguayWhen is it okay to post two answers to one question?

@Federico one describes a company that only sells business class seats and one is economy class specialty carriers

so, two different examples for the same answer

I don't see overlap between the answers
how are they the same?

Q: "Are there more?"
A1: "yes, example 1"
A2: "yes, example 2"
see the meta discussion, that's blatant "case 2" -> 1 answer
casey

@Federico by that logic, all the answers should be combined, because they are all the same

A: What's our policy towards multiple answers from the same user on the same question?

I'd rather avoid the mod-hammer use and solve it through the community
casey
casey
but personally, I don't see them as "yes, example1", "yes, example2"
the question (taking more into account than just the title) is "what are some examples of alternative carrier business models", not "are there different carrier models"
if it was the latter, I'd agree with you, as "yes" would be a sufficient answers
but as the former, I see distinct answers, even from the same user fine
Federico
Federico
the body states
> Are there more? If so, where and how are they used?
to me the "yes" is the answer to the first (main), the rest comes as addendum

@Federico solving it through the community isn't too much different that mod hammering it except it'll take a few more of you. You could edit his second answer into his first and delete the second, but you'll need a fair number of delete votes unless you get it downvoted a lot

> except it'll take a few more of you
to me isn't bad, if I cannot find others means that I am wrong
but if noone discusses I cannot know
