serverfault.com/review/late-answers/521523 This "audit" question doesn't seem fair. Who decided on the review audit questions - and why doesn't "audit fail" come with an explanation or a discussion? Also this seems like a lost opportunity to gain a new community member... I chose "Looks OK", it looks like the person who had their answer deleted spent half a day writing that answer, which is a solution even if only closely related. Sure it's not "American", more "Indian". So what?

In fairness the title of the question is a poor description of the detail. I see this often - you search the web for your problem, you land on a SE title that describes your problem - even if the OP asked something slightly different but in the same domain - people figure it out and not finding anything close share their answer there, and then they get hell for sharing and how dare they not open a new question or answer the question to the exact detail.

Which hell are we trying to avoid here... the one where there are more semi-related answers, or the one where there are no answers and fewer people?
