The Bridge

gaming is the only room populated 24/7. you guys are hardcore. :)

I like the making people unhappy thing

usually...

I like it that @Ivo likes that @Chacha102 likes it that @Ivo suddenly popped up

Ah, okay. I'm not a SO user, I first signed up to these sites to support the Gaming proposal.

If something like that was to be asked on SO now, regardless of the homey feeling it would be closed

do we want to encourage him though?

I actually think they lack the specificity. The original "class" questions were just: "How do I level a Priest?" This is akin to asking "How do I program in C?" Its a bad question. On the other hand if they had asked, "What is the formula for spirit based mana regen in WotLK?" it probably would have received a much more positive response.

I think they encourage low quality in the questions being asked

I'm just glad they added the top 20 rule.

@Macha just wait until Chat has been around long enough and the purists start claiming we need a 4th place, because there's no order here

6-8 time units

no, shutting down very soon

good ol' voting anomalies

also /id#id works even with javascript disabled

That's a tiny bit impossible

good question you removed there, marco

@juan Your comment on the topic of Gaming is right, if we leave them a little room now for discussion, it's not going to be around in a couple of months to even tidy up

it's a discussion of the site itself

Technically the question is identifying a game.

Not if us SU mods can keep clearing out the lists from our end. And then all those SEs can have the list questions

/posts/<id>/revisions

this is why I think LIST OF X would be an educational close reason

I changed close votes per day, from 12 to 20 on gaming

you seem to close questions @random

that's because you're an awesome mod ;P

Back to three tabs again, Gaming, Meta Gaming and Chat, just closed 20 others

There are, in fact, certain places where women now dominate the community, such as in Fanfiction sites, Soap Opera boards, Facebook, LiveJournal (particularly Livejournal Roleplay) or MySpace. As such, this is mainly a Discredited Trope these days.

our question counter is going to get skewed with the amount of closing around here

then you're in the wrong place, this system has worked like this for years

well, accepting is a form of showing consensus, and this is what I think most people here agreed on too

and seeing the nature of the SE sites you're then promoting cheating, which is undesirable

I know for sure that there's an audience for these question

Wii question is fine with me.. I don't really care about legality unless it's CLEARLY illegal (linking to warez, gimme teh free softwarez, etc)

For a successful experience, not just for the site but for the question asker, the important thing is to isolate what the actual problem is that help is required for.

I'm getting great answers to my questions on dwarf fortress. I would have abandoned the game without gaming.stackexchange.com
