@10Replies "more powerful close votes for closing off topic questions" Do you think the site has a problem with off-topic questions not being closed quick enough? Could you give some examples?

I personally think the community is handling off-topic questions pretty well right now. Similarly, do you think we have a problem with tags?

@PhilipKendall If anything, we tend to close them too fast sometimes.

@MichaelClark indeed. If anything we're too aggressive on closing something that doesn't seem to fit on the surface, but has a portion of the question that is a good fit that is hiding underneath. More aggressive closing is not generally something the site needs very often from what I've seen.

1 minutes until it is officially a 4 candidate election

nominate now or forever hold your peace (or at least until the next election)

@RomeoNinov if you aren't aware of it, it may be worth checking in on this chat periodically. People sometimes stop by and ask more direct questions of the candidates

@Caleb welcome to the running

Sorry for the late entry, folks -- I just figured it was time to finally step up and at least offer to help out.

AJ Henderson

@Caleb hey, I'm glad you did. It's nice to see another long time/high rep user in the running

Caleb

Thanks @AJHenderson -- and back at ya!

@PhilipKendall Happy to answer the questionnaire once I find it. Sounds like it'll make itself obvious in a little while.
