@Holo thanks for the back up on the duplicate lol. I was at dinner.

@RushabhMehta Haha, no problems :), I got annoyed seeing them replying without understanding what they are talking about. Btw, I didn't flag that comment because I think it is up to you, if you think this comment should go I will flag it

Rushabh Mehta

@Holo I'm not sure. I don't think he's malicious, he just reminds me of those kids on that /iamverysmart subreddit.

@Holo I also get annoyed when people find obviously flawed things to be "discoveries", but I guess it's natural.

Holo

@RushabhMehta if so I won't flag it for now

Rushabh Mehta

@Holo Also, take a look at his question record.

I'm gonna invite him into the general convo to discuss

Holo

@RushabhMehta maybe it is natural but don't they think that people tried things in the past? A good question can be: "did people tried this, if so what are the results?" not "I created this, this is a thing 'cause I said so" :P

@Holo agreed. Removing the pretentiousness makes me more willing to help.

OP reposted question after it was closed once

@Holo Stuff like this hurts :link

The hell @RushabhMehta ... Wow

I have so many things to say to that OP...

Rushabh Mehta

@Holo Yea I found that by looking at the question history of someone who posted a PSQ in MSE

Holo

This post is just saying (1)=what I want and thus...

Rushabh Mehta

@Holo I legit was staring at it for 10 minutes laughing

Holo

@RushabhMehta I'm still unsure how to react... Sad? Amused? Mad? Lol

Rushabh Mehta

@Holo idk either. It's memey 4 sure

Helloo. What to do if OP changed the question after someone else posted an answer to the first version? Now the answer has no sense

Holo

@Isah Post a comment to the question that if they have another question they should post this at a different post. Also you can flag a mod

You can also send to here a link, if this is very bad I can roll it back

(Although I prefer that the OP will roll the question back by themselves)

Isah

ok, someone else asked OP why did he change it, but OP didn't answer

@Holo the question is \2954642 question

Holo

@Isah are you talking about 2x vs x?

Isah

@Holo no, it was x=1/2 and OP modified to x=2

that changes the answer completely

Holo

@Isah I will edit it back to the original

Isah

6:28 PM

ah ok, mmh but I flagged it already

Holo

@Isah it is okay, I changed it to 2x and to x=1/2. The mods can see my edit

amWhy

Did you roll back the edit, @Holo? That's the best way to "undo" a question alteration after receiving an answer.

Isah

yes that one was another change the x by 2x..

Holo

@amWhy I justed changed 2 into 1/2 and x into 2x like it was in the original question :)

amWhy

@Holo It's just a lot easier to document when it's done through "roll-backing" an edit. You assure you revert the edit to it's pre-edit state. Here, there wasn't much edited. The asker probably carelessly wrote the problem incorrectly, but once answered, tough for them. Isah: it was good to flag! The question is as it should be, and three users support you. You likely are not the only flag. Flagging here was probably the best course of action.

Isah

6:42 PM

ok I retracted the flag now :) Thank you

amWhy

7:35 PM

@Isah You could have kept it. When I said flagging "here" I meant flagging the post for moderator attention being the best course of action. No matter now. But that move was spot on (to flag) when you see that happen in the future.

@SmokeDetector Not a good question, Smokey, but "erection" isn't a dirty word.

ok @amWhy, I'll keep in mind next time:)

@Isah Glad you brought it up here to, though!! Stop by, anytime!

I think that my title is less clickbaity...

@XanderHenderson Indeed!

@gimusi Why answer the question if you don't know what it even means? Wouldn't it be better to first ask for clarification, and then, once you have that clarification, answer the question? — Xander Henderson 12 secs ago

Ugh...

@XanderHenderson It seems that my guess was right! Please try to be not so skeptic and relentless with the askers and with who try to help them to clarify their doubts. If my answer was not fitting the asker needing of course I would have deleted that by myself. As I explained before, I was sure of his doubt at the moment I've answered and then I've asked a question to sollicit a confirmation by the asker. Anyway thanks for your suggestion, I understand that you try to act for the benefit of the community but please try also to consider some friendly suggestion from other users! Bye — gimusi 42 secs ago

THAT'S NOT THE POINT!

In any event, I don't think that this question is useful.
