Q: Handling answers that don't answer the question

Stella BidermanOften times, I come across "answers" that are related to the question but don't answer the question that has actually been asked in the OP. Often times this occurs when the OP asks for an explanation of a proof, or how to finish a proof, and the answer gives an entirely unrelated proof. [The exam...

Seems I found my dupe @amWhy @Did
 
@SimplyBeautifulArt Ahh! I remember the post, now that you've linked it!.
 
It appears to have had other questionable content, but I do think it fits as a dupe, despite not having much there that answers my question I suppose.

@Did @SimplyBeautifulArt: This question has been improved greatly! I'd close an eye to the multiple questions issue, since they are clearly related. =)

@amWhy You were one of the close-voters on the question. I assumed that meant you felt the question was not a good question. Hence my comment stating that I felt it was out of curiosity and perhaps need not have been closed. As for the accepted answer changing, that comment was directed to Did, who had disagreed with the asker's earlier choice of answer. By the way, unless I'm mistaken, I hadn't linked to my answer at all.
@amWhy I didn't realize (in my 2nd-to-last comment) that you had already posted about this. It's been improved and already re-opened.

@Did Somehow I missed your ping, but it seems that Simply found question along the lines of what you were looking for. BTW it seems that you were right about the drama: Abuse by user Did.
 
@user21820 Hello! I'm doing okay. But I'll need another more focused MRI to clarify/confirm the results from the first. How are you?!! It's nice to catch you!
 
@amWhy I see. I hope you receive the best! I'm fine, just been a bit lazy recently and need to focus more on my work.
 
@SimplyBeautifulArt It turns out I had already downvoted it 2 years ago. =)
 
@user21820 lol
