## * [jrg](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/6738/jrg) [asked](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418132#5418132):* **Everything you vote on (both close *and* delete votes), once elected, will be a binding Super Vote. How will this change your voting habits?**

So I guess this is mostly a worry for the more unexperienced candidates
** [jrg](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/6738/jrg) [responded](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418234#5418234):** Fair enough - however, it needs to be asked. Not to mention that it's a *lot* different when it's your name tacked onto the close message, and you're a moderator.
** [slhck](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/2463/slhck) [answered](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418242#5418242):** I would *never* cast a sole binding vote on a question that is not obviously off topic or unsalvageable, or should be migrated. Voting to close is a community effort and moderators should stay being exception handlers. As for deleting: We don't have too many users who are able to cast deletion votes, therefore I would probably delete one or the other topic myself, if there's absolutely no value in keeping it around on the site.

** [slhck](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/2463/slhck) [responded](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418296#5418296):** No, of course, but I wouldn't want to overrule the community when a question might be borderline.
** [Oliver Salzburg](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/31226/oliver-salzburg) [answered](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418277#5418277):** I hope I will only be slightly more cautious with my votes. If I would plan to make major changes in my voting behavior, that would mean my current judgement is too *casual* and I hope that's not the case.
** [DragonLord](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/11606/dragonlord) [answered](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418347#5418347):** I would be a little more careful with every vote I cast, and I may not act immediately on borderline cases. In such cases, I'll try to consult with the community or leave it to another moderator.
** [Daniel Beck](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/2582/daniel-beck) [answered](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418363#5418363):** This one will probably require some time to adjust. I think it's pretty easy to detect whether a topic is a candidate for debate about closing, and will refrain from acting without seeing some community opinions first. And I'm sure bad decisions will be called out.
** [soandos](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/18035/soandos) [answered](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5418670#5418670):** will be much more cautious in my voting since everything will be final. I will probably be a less frequent voter
** [KronoS](http://chat.stackexchange.com/users/601/kronos) [answered](http://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/5420140#5420140):** I feel that I've been voting responibily and only choose to vote when I feel that the post doesn't belong. However as a mod, when I'm not 100% sure that the question/answer deserve to be closed or deleted, I'll let the community decide on what should happen.
