| Feb 8, 2013 at 14:55 | comment | added | Dennis | One way of reducing the number of unassociated accounts would be to require registration to post questions. As it is, it is much easier to just post a question on SU with an unregistered account than to log in using your existing SE credentials. Recent example: question on SO, question on SU with unregistered account | |
| Feb 8, 2013 at 3:56 | comment | added | Shog9 | That's only an issue if the user's accounts don't get associated, @Dennis - which is a problem you'll need a moderator's help (or the asker's cooperation) to solve anyway. We've been working for some time to reduce the likelihood of this happening in the first place. | |
| Feb 5, 2013 at 16:15 | comment | added | Dennis | One rather frequent issue with the new changes: A user posts a question on two SE sites, and one of them gets migrated to the other. Neither has an answer, so you need a mod to close one of them. | |
| Feb 5, 2013 at 15:25 | comment | added | Shinrai | This is a LOT, IMO. I realize it's not outside moderator ability to handle but it shouldn't require that. (Personally I agree with most of the MSO complaints - this is a bad idea) | |

Probably worth checking the *timing* on votes too - that adds another one

improve readability with list

| Feb 4, 2013 at 16:13 | comment | added | Shog9 | Thanks @Daniel! I failed to realize that AnswerScore was nullable, excluding questions with answers that'd never been voted on - this yields 21 results for the past 90 days. Altered the query to actually check the timing on votes - should include all questions where no answers had received an up-vote at the time the close vote was cast now. | |

Daniel Beck pointed out a problem with the query I was using - a few more examples

| Feb 4, 2013 at 15:34 | comment | added | Daniel Beck Mod | Are you sure this is all of them? I get 15 results looking at actually closed questions as duplicates from November 1st to February 3rd on Data.SE, trying to determine the real impact of this change. Clearly, your list should be quite a bit longer, as you're counting everything starting with one vote. For example, what about this one? | |
