I had a very difficult question that I urgently needed an answer to. It got buried very quickly.
- Is there anyway to bump a question higher in the questions list?
- (possible answerpossible answer)
- How do I ask two related questions? Should I keep them in one question that would require two answers? Or should I split them up?
- (possible answerpossible answer, possible answerpossible answer)
So I made a second question that linked back to the first, and it was marked as spam.
There was very little feedback on what I had done wrong, and the people who did comment were extremely impolite and unhelpful.
- What are the reasons a question can be closed for, and what do each of them mean?
- (possible answerpossible answer)
- Is there any way to report/punish users who are being abusive in comments?
- (possible answerpossible answer, possible answerpossible answer)
This is a great site, but if the community attitude continues to be so discouraging, you'll find that people will migrate to a site with a more welcoming attitude instead.
