| Jun 1, 2016 at 12:21 | comment | added | Patrick Conheady | Well it's moot anyway. Just tried to downvote the post, and it turns out I'm one reputation point short of being able to budge the vote count. | |
| Jun 1, 2016 at 12:13 | comment | added | feetwet Mod | @PatrickConheady - Yeah, that's a bit of a problem with the convention for metas. How about: "Vote to indicate you agree/disagree that IXLs are a problem, and Favorite to indicate this is a good topic?" | |

| Jun 1, 2016 at 9:59 | comment | added | Patrick Conheady | I can't decide whether to upvote because this is a good topic or downvote because I don't mind IXL questions and you said to convey that fact by downvoting. | |

| Apr 17, 2016 at 4:57 | comment | added | gracey209 | Hey! So, I agree. I've not have time to be around much as of late, but those questions have always sort of irked me. IMHO I think it would be beneficial to set a requisite similar to stack exchange or ask different, where it is incumbent upon the asker to do some modicum of due diligence relating to their Q - like researching the issue at least a bit, before asking the Q. In those forums, the typical question reads something like this is the issue and this is what I've done to resolve the problem/Q, and cannot. This usually includes the steps they've taken thus far. | |

| Apr 15, 2016 at 2:22 | comment | added | feetwet Mod | I just found this general answer that could be used on almost all IXLs that I wrote long ago. Perhaps something like that could be part of our help center or FAQ covering this. | |
| Apr 15, 2016 at 2:12 | comment | added | feetwet Mod | And if you think the existing close reasons (e.g., "too broad" or "unclear what you're asking") are the best way to address bad IXL questions, upvote this comment. | |
