I don't know how to respond to something that is going on. I don't even know if I should respond.
My girlfriend's daughter's husband, let's call him Bill, and I often get paired at family gatherings. Very consistently, he will talk about how I should come over and play some board game. The last ...
@Rainbacon It was 'meh'. The dancing and acting was really great, but there was something with the singing/sound that made the lyrics unintelligible on the higher/harder notes :/
I'm now listening to a broadway playlist on spotify, and it really is better.
@Magisch Now that you're here... regarding your latest comment on meta here, do you really worry that that might happen? Catija already said that if this was going to take months, we're going to reconsider going in without that delay...
Might be me, but from what I've seen Catija's been doing a lot of work on our behalf to get a reintroduction to HNQ possible, and your comment doesn't really seem to appreciate it :/
If you're worried about the timeline, that's a good worry perhaps to voice, but right now you're sounding like you've already given up. Perhaps rephrase instead of delete (and say nothing at all?)
I'll take your word as the person closer to the process
She raises a very good point though, a minimum age coupled with a feed in chat would give us a real chance to prevent HNQbaiting and its negative side effects
Nevermind mod coverage, that would provide a real incentive to organize systematic community moderation
@Magisch Honestly, the delay feature came as a bit of a surprise to me too, but it's great enough that I'm willing to actually wait for it, especially if Catija is wanting to have it done ASAP
Yeah it gives an opportunity to edit and curate before HNQ is hit, enabling us to present the best and fixed possible version of the question to the HNQ. This is a bit of a game changer imo
and would probably endear new users more to the site
good there's a CM pushing for it that means there's a real chance it gets done
@Revol729, "He is your father, you do not need to be sarcastic to him." suggests parent-child submission that is less strong in many cultures lately. — Richlv1 min ago
Background
My now ex-girlfriend and I have dated for nearly three years (both nearly in our 30s). Up until some months ago, our relationship was the perfect one everybody is looking for. In short, we would never argue or be upset with each other, we had similar tastes for almost everything and t...
idk if it also places a delete vote but you can always throw one on manually, too. but the flag is important because the system uses that as a factor for its anti-spam stuff
Hmm, that's interesting. 3 delete votes will remove it, so I would think that DVing would be preferable as it gets the offending post off of the site faster.
Well, it's usually faster to go get six >15 rep users to flag than three >20,000 rep users to delete vote... but even then, faster isn't always better, especially if it seems like they might post again.
If a post accumulates six spam flags, it will be automatically deleted, and its content hidden even from users with the “see deleted posts” privilege (10k+ on regular sites, 2k+ on beta sites). In addition, this will provide helpful data for the network’s spam-detection filters.

I think really spam/r/a posts don't hang around for too long here as it is, but if people are really too slow you can always try asking people in chat to flag or pinging a mod if they're around
@Rainbacon I recall seeing some from users who were high-rep on other stacks where they didn't have the same requirements, like TWP
feels kind of awkward to be like "hey, I know from seeing a bunch of your posts on another site that you have years and years of experience, but your answer doesn't actually say any of that, can you edit that in"
you have to consider, if they delete their profile at some point, or even get suspended so they now look like a 1-rep user.. how is anyone else to know user1234 is speaking from a place of some authority
hmm. I'm thinking of asking a money.se question, but there's a pretty similar question already.. but the answer doesn't address one of the points that I (and that question's OP) wanted to know about, and I'm in a different state... so I don't know if I should just post mine or put a bounty on the existing one
well, that's what I'm trying to figure out :P I guess the OP question is almost exactly the same, but in a different state. but there's only one answer and it doesn't say anything about tax implications, which is what I want to know about..
I think the right way to go is to put a bounty on the existing question. The main difference between your situation and that OP's is the state that you live in. I'm not an expert on tax laws, but I don't believe that being in different states will make a large difference in the answers to the question. Given that, a new question asking for basically the same things would likely be closed as a duplicate. Better to offer a bounty and specifically mention what kind of an answer you are looking for.
I guess the other thing I want to be sure about is, does it make a difference tax-wise if I just add him to my current account vs. make a totally new account
