I don't think his constant comments asking for downvote reasons are at all constructive. His continuing comments going, "Poor me, I'm getting downvoted hard!" are also annoying.
I would like to play local co op with my sis. How can I do this without buying a controller, but instead using the keyboard (as these certain games don't allow keyboard use for the 2nd player)
Please reply!
Edit: the game would be Sacred Citadel

@Wipqozn If you ask what effect a choice has on the story line, and someone responds by telling you the effect the choice has on the story line, that doesn't feel like it needs special spoiler markup to me.
But even if I think it's still a silly downvote reason, I wouldn't argue about it in comments
I'd just leave my answer remarkably un-spoilertagged and tell people to suck it (in my head... not in comments, because that would be rude)
I'm not sure what value the question has if it is "Does this have an effect" and the answer is "Yes, but I won't say what because it's be spoilery." That effectively gives you no more information than if the answer had been no. YOu kind of need to know what effect it has
@Wipqozn I discussed it a little earlier today. I'm for it when you're adding information tangential to the answer. Anyway, I see your point on this one. But seeing your point just really makes me hate the question if it's supposed to be interepreted as a yes/no thing.
@Wipqozn I will concede the point that spoiler markup is nice to have. What I don't get is the people who get angry when they click on a question that says "Does it make any difference if I choose the Bird or the Cage Brooch?" and get spoiled beyond "yes/no"
@Sterno That is what I did. I asked about this issue in Meta to avoid people downvoting due to their spoiler markup preferences regardless of the question quality.
Well, not directly, so don't worry about it.
The point here is that you made a choice that you will remember and notice it later on.

@fbueckert I disagree with that in the general case. If you truly have no idea where the downvotes are coming from and want to avoid the mistake with future questions, asking is legitmate. But if you don't like the answer, at that point you pretty much have to suck it up.
There's nothing wrong with asking why something was downvoted. Just do so in a polite manner, and don't get into a huge argument in the comments because you disagree.
@Wipqozn I initially responded to this chat message, in chat, not through comments in my question. See the chat history. Notice that I was politely asking people for feedback.
@galacticninja The reason that comment "makes me want to downvote" isn't that you are asking for a comment, it's that you are giving this huge wall of text about it.
I think it comes down to this. @galacticninja would like to know why people downvote his stuff. He has the right to ask, even if some find it annoying. People have the right to downvote how they want, even if he finds their reason annoying. You all have the right to argue about it in comments, even if I find it annoying.
@galacticninja You do realize that that also means you have to accept their reasons then?
Instead, you try to prove them wrong, convince them that their downvote reason is crappy and go to meta to whine about it. You just have to do one thing: Deal. With. It.
I downvote question I think are impractical because I think they are bad for the site. These are my opinions and not because of some site policy I am following.
@galacticninja It doesn't look like you're requesting feedback, though. It looks like you're discounting the downvoters' opinions, by pulling it all into a lengthy argument about whether or not their downvotes are valid. If you were just accepting the feedback, we'd be perfectly fine with it.
@galacticninja Yeah, because what it looks like you did is, "I don't agree that comments aren't necessary, so I'm going to attempt to enforce comments on my questions when you downvote."
It's also not how you should vote. That's a misuse of the voting system. But, again, there's nothing I can do about it, so other than my Meta post about it, that's the end of it.
I hereby propose the following: 1) People refrain from personal attack on @galacticninja, even if his requests annoy them. 2) @galacticninja try his best not to argue with people when they tell him why they downvoted. Either silently disagree and leave your question as-is, or agree and fix it. 3) I be named supreme overlord of votes, and can change any question or answer's tally at will.
@galacticninja most of your stuff seems well researched, has good references, often contains pictures, is interesting, and thought provoking. In short, I like it. If I may offer some constructive criticism, I don't believe that fighting the hate is going to go well. The fight for hate is not easy, and lord knows I've lost a lot of enthusiasm for my work on the site as a result of hate-battling. if it stresses you out, accept the downvotes and move on.
Any time you play it on the person, it becomes a personal attack. -- If you provide constructive criticism on an answer, independant of the person, it is not.
Especially when said action has no real constructiveness inherent in it. It really seems to do nothing but attempt to enforce a policy that is, by design, not enforcable.
Going, "I'd really like a reason why I'm getting downvotes on this" after a single downvote, and then arguing the equivalent of, "You're doing it wrong.", doesn't help anybody at all.
@galacticninja The pattern I'm seeing from you is the last here. For the record, if you were to adopt the first, I'd have no issues whatsoever.
I had a bounty on a question that a relatively new user posted an excellent answer for.
After awarding the bounty, I noticed that his rep went up by 200 instead of the bounty amount of 100.
After looking at his rep page, I saw this:
+130 35 secs ago 4 events What is the benefit of...
i bought the game a few days ago, and since than the game crushes alot when trying to launch. it doesn't give me any messege, just "stop working".
when i'm already in a game (1 in a 10 trys), it plays normally, and doesn't crash anymore..
hope you give me a solution, hate it when it happens.

well, it seems like the only thing that keeps that from being simple math is 1) mystery about what things will produce before you have one of them, and 2) grandma inflation
@alexanderpas but you don't really care about the actual value do you? Granny produces 4xclick, so if granny costs more than 4xclick, get a click, if less, get a granny
@Sconibulus The point is that we have the code for it. It's simple to calculate if you set up a spreadsheet that takes the actual math the code uses, it's simple to do. Doing it off the top of one's head, probably not that simple.
@fbueckert I think it is. As far as I recall it, Minecraft just replaces mod-dependant blocks with air, so there should be no corruption or anything of the like with mods.
Of course, I have no idea how many bugs there are related to that, but it sounds a lot less likely than flat-out broken mod install.
This is an excellent first answer, but in the future some users will request sources. Be sure to find a youtube video or forum post or walkthrough detailing the information you have from first hand knowledge, as most people are skeptics. — Cole Busby aka cheat117cole10848 mins ago
@Sconibulus Don't Starve has season. Just one! Well... Technically two. Winter, and Not-Winter. Winter is when the Deerclops comes. Winter is when you are hunted by gentlemanly walruses with blowguns. Winter is when you can freeze to death. Not-Winter is everything else!
@GnomeSlice Just copy the code on the page, go to your url bar while on chat page, type in javascript: and paste the code. Then just enter and it should work
