@copper.hat We want only quality duplicates. The preference for closure, when a question is VLQ and a duplicate, is to close as VLQ, and to delete, as needed. When a user asks a quality question, which mirrors a dupe, we hope to retain it by keeping closed, but not deleting. You have no possible argument to convince us that the question you answered was worth keeping, other than "I want to protect the rep I shouldn't have earned", because the question should not have been answered.
Too many days going by without the appearance of mods here, and for the most part, in the mods office. Mostly what we've seen posted by mods are excuses from not being around. Maybe we'll have to settle for a once a week appearance of some mod to handle flags, and maybe Xander and quid can switch of so they only have to appear once every two weeks....
