| Feb 14, 2013 at 2:04 | comment | added | bgmCoder | In order to create a topic, a user has to push the "ASK QUESTION" button. What should he do next? Ask a question? | |
| Feb 14, 2013 at 2:02 | comment | added | bgmCoder | What if I have a precise problem, and all I need is the answer to some part of it - I ask a question to get a precise answer to just that part - even though that isn't the underlying problem I am trying to solve. Shouldn't folks just answer the question asked? - or at least help the person ask the question they need? | |
| Feb 14, 2013 at 2:00 | comment | added | bgmCoder | "...focusing on the topic...but is not about the problem" - Aren't folks here to try to answer the question you ASK? If you have a complex problem, sometimes it is too convoluted or complex to make it so that a single answer can be accepted. If you think like this, then we should, in Stack Exchange, never refer to the topic as a "question" but as a "problem". However, this is a Question and Answer site, not a Problem and Solution site, I think. | |
| Feb 14, 2013 at 1:42 | comment | added | Tamara Wijsman | The first one really doesn't tell me anything, the second one has the habitual "add 'how to' or 'how do I' in front and we'll be alright" behavior which adds exactly nothing. This is focusing on the topic / task / goal, but is not about the problem. - meta.superuser.com/questions/4689/… | |

Turned title into a question, pun intended. :D

Mac Address to IP makes me think; the to first wrongly suggests me that this would be a conversion, which puts you can't convert them! into my mind, thinking about how that thought is non-sense I would then try to find a less strict relation in which you would obtain one from the other. So, I don't like that. Don't make me think: Given a PC's MAC address, can I find its IP?
