May 31, 2010 at 12:47 comment added Gnome @Chris: I've been frustrated by that too, but as I said, it seems you initially blew this incident out of proportion.
May 31, 2010 at 11:41 comment added Chris W. Rea @The Cat: Agreed, but a long-standing issue is that a moderator's single vote carries way more force than the vote of a typical community member. I think the shotgun should be reserved for cases when the fly swatters don't work.
May 31, 2010 at 3:25 comment added Gnome Moderators should be able to act as part of the community too---their high-volume and highly valued contributions as part of the community are probably why they were tapped for moderators in the first place.
May 31, 2010 at 0:26 comment added Chris W. Rea Robert, I particularly liked the second part of your answer at meta.stackexchange.com/questions/41062/… .. re: I am of the opinion that, unless a question is an especially egregious case of system abuse (i.e. obvious spam), that it should be left to the community to cast its own votes, and decide for itself whether a question gets closed or not. +1.
May 30, 2010 at 19:07 comment added Chris W. Rea @quack: Consider the similar problem: There are insufficient high-rep users to quickly reopen a poorly-closed question. So, I'd rather not wait for the re-open votes, if you could do the needful please I would appreciate it. Thank you.
May 30, 2010 at 18:01 comment added quack quixote you may be more used to Stack Overflow, where bad questions can be closed by the community in a matter of minutes. that's very seldom the case on Super User; we have just over 2 pages of close-voting users.
