May 3, 2015 at 0:47 | comment | added | dmckee --- ex-moderator kitten Mod | There can be value in a asking a duplicate if the new version has a significantly different title that will come up on searches than miss the original. As such a blanket policy might be a bit much. My personal irritation is triggered by questions with nearly identical titles and by people who habitually answer questions when they could reasonably have assumed to be duplicates. | |

Apr 30, 2015 at 13:26 | comment | added | ACuriousMind Mod | It's not really clear how you want to say with this. IF you want to respond to TheDarkSide, why don't you comment on their post? Also, note that downvotes on meta can also just express disagreement with what you have written, there doesn't need to be anything "wrong" with what you wrote. | |
