I just flagged this question, got invalid flag and some time later the question was closed? I got -10 flag weight to a closed question? Could someone verify?

You flagged for migration to Server Fault or Security.
We have to remember the number one rule in migrations: Don't migrate crap.
It was dismissed as invalid on that reason.
It was given a few more seconds to see if it would improve. In that time, it was flagged as NARQ.
It was later closed as not a real question.

What im meaning is: Should I get -10 flag weight loss penalty for flagging a question that anyway got closed? I think at least the -10 penality would be removed...– DiogoCommented Jul 14, 2011 at 19:43

4You wanted the question be migrated when it failed quality control. Dismissed as invalid. Flag weight drops. Another flag was to close it. Dismissed as valid. If a question is bad or doesn't deserve to live, flag as that. Not to move it somewhere else where it will be closed. @dio– random ModCommented Jul 14, 2011 at 19:55
