Yeah but you did put on your moderator hat after our belly-aching, so I'll let the compliment stand

Thanks. Moderating while eating dinner. That's dedication.

:p

I assume your silence means you're giving it serious consideration

Deputy mod for a day/run amok with ban hammer/etc, etc

Geek, I'll remind you of my standing offer

Doh

I already flagged as not an answer so can't flag again. @bertieb - can you custom flag it?

Still editing non-answers: superuser.com/posts/1456363/revisions

I guess we were asleep at the switch back in 2016 that we let that nonsense fly :) Downvoted and VTC'd that question now as well. Looks like they're working on their second question ban

I guess it's possible. Miracles do happen

They seem to be question banned all over the network and yet they never use their 1 question per 6 months wisely

:)

Very strange question

Roger that

Cool, thanks. People kept giving me upvotes even though my answer proved to be wrong. I don't like getting rep that way

Ugghh that question even hit HNQ

Looks like it did end up working on 20 GB

They're using it to study for the Home Server 2011 certification :p

Yep, rearm, rearm, rearm

It did strike me as odd that they were installing it in virtualbox, but I learned long ago not to bother asking why people are doing the things they're doing

Must not have been very popular with the masses

I don't even remember Home Server 2011 being a thing

That 160 GB requirement did seem suspicious. But still kind of surprised that it would still work with less than 20% of the requirement

Yeah, that error log they tried to sum up wasn't very helpful

I just wrote my answer based on the listed system requirements

OPs original 20 GB turned out to be adequate

But in this specific case, I don't know what would be the "correct answer"

Any advice for what to do if you wrote an answer that was accepted and then proves out to be wrong? Think I should delete it? superuser.com/questions/1429886/…

You shouldn't have to login to each site separately. I don't even have to login again after a reboot. Are you browsing incognito mode or something?

Yes

Hell, I don't know what anyone hopes to accomplish by spamming our site. It'll be a like a super local business in Detroit or something and maybe 5 people view the spam post before it gets deleted

Never said they were a shrewd businessman

Probably trying to build an audience so they can monitize

Same

That bad, huh? I actually don't remember seeing them, but I guess they all kind of just blend together at this point

@JourneymanGeek - I don't hate them. Their superior products meet or exceed all my computing needs. 9 out of 10 internet experts agree their products defeat all competing products by staggers. Now please [click here] for a once in a lifetime 10% discount on this amazing product.

It was that one marketing pitch sentence they threw in as part of their defense that still seemed a little suspicious

Geek was still kind of giving him the stiff one-eye when he said he didn't work for them XD

Apparently he was an innocent victim (maybe)

Yeah, there was a guy about a week ago who wandered in here after getting suspended for linking to spam sites

But the drive-by visitors who just joined today and link to a junk site, I hardly ever give them the benefit of the doubt

Yeah, hard to say about the accatech one. It might be spam. But then again, when you google issues you get all those junk fixit sites as results. Sometimes people just link to those regardless of how credible the site is

Nevermind. I need sleep
