Mar 25	comment	How do we approach closing dupes of dupes? Obviously it should be closed as a dupe of the original post, not of a duplicate
Mar 23	comment	Undelete own question FYI When looking for a reference on how it works I found this question, where Sathya explains the details.

Mar 21	comment	Why aren’t my flags handled? @Karan lets suffice it to say that while your concerns may be valid, in this particular matter the number of declined flags are so high that there's no doubt the ban is working as intended. For any specific concerns I'd recommend starting a new Meta questions, possibly on MSO

Mar 18	comment	*Can a question limit be displayed before* allowing a user to attempt asking a question?** While you certainly have a point that its not really nice to let you type a question only to tell you afterwards, you're not allowed to post it, I do wonder why you feel the need to post that many questions. You already deleted one yourself, another got closed with a second that's about to be closed. Surely you can understand we don't want you to post more questions without first learning the ropes of how our site(s) work?
Feb 10	comment	Answered my own question, now it's community wiki? Luckily all is right now and you've earned yourself some nice rep :-)
Jan 30	answered	Should a bounty prevent a question from being closed
Jan 8	comment	Is cross posting in Meta allowed That's why there's Meta.SO which should cover all Stack Exchange and should give you exactly the right coverage
Dec 26	comment	Are “Guessing Game” type questions allowed on SU? FWIW I disagree with the decision of the Movies or Scifi sites and regret that there hasnt been an excutive ban on them from the SE team. However, I would say these questions are far less likely on SU, you dont typically ask to identify an app, but rather you simply ask how to do the task the app performed, which requires less quessing. So most often there's no need for a quessing game.
Dec 10	comment	Should I add “Possible duplicate” text to a question which is not closed as duplicate (yet)? In addition, if you want to help: vote to close if you have the rep, leave a comment pointing to the question if you don't
Nov 26	comment	Question of the Week #42 Check Fake Programmers yourself if you don't believe me
Nov 26	comment	Question of the Week #42 I'm just adding comments, because @Kronos made me do it!
Nov 26	revised	Question of the Week #42 added 15 characters in body

Nov 24	comment	Plugging cord into laptop or wall question closed as NARQ Probably because you didn't supply any evidence that it matters. As Breakthrough mentions in the comments, there doesn't really seem to be a question, because it doesn't matter.
Nov 12	comment	Do not take away earned privileges While I understand it sucks to lose privileges, I don't expect the team to 'fix' this, because it would complicate the system. Currently, deciding what privileges you have is easy, its a direct function of how much rep you have. I can already imagine the Meta posts of users who miscalculated and taught they were supposed to have said privilege, even though they don't. Yeah, not gonna happen...
