Migration of MSO links to MSE links

| Apr 23, 2012 at 5:59 | comment | added | Charles Menguy | I agree with @karlphillip that votes should be reset when moving a question to another site. As should badges, I got several badges on DSP in the short time the question was moved there... Don't take it personally, you're most certainly more knowledgeable than me in OpenCV, I never expected so many upvotes on this question, I'd be happy to be off the top list or whatever it is if that's what you want, I'm honestly not here to be on top of some list, and I don't think that's the finality of being on SO but I respect your point of view. | |

exact duplicate | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:50 | comment | added | karlphillip | As somebody pointed in a answer below, it seems that the question was originally asked in stackoverflow, then moved to DSP, then back here, then the bounty was set up, etc. People seem to be stuck in the case I described, but it was only meant to be an example of something that happens daily. I continue to think that votes should be reset when moving posts between StackExchange sites. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:45 | comment | added | dmckee --- ex-moderator kitten | This is more often a problem when migrating from Stack Overflow, because the large user base inflates votes number to a degree that they are misleading on new Stack Exchange site. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:19 | comment | added | karlphillip | @WesleyMurch Thanks for pointing it as a possible duplicate. I up voted the original question. Mine should be closed. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:18 | comment | added | karlphillip | @WesleyMurch Now you know there isn't. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:16 | comment | added | user159834 | @karlphillip: I actually agree with you, but there's something about the way you authored your post that makes it seem more like jealousy than genuine concern for the greater good. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:14 | comment | added | karlphillip | @WesleyMurch About my motives being personal, I can't see a way in which upvotes in OpenCV threatens my work at all in this forum, I just don't think it is fair to the other users who spend years struggling to achieve that position. You would be surprised the amount of people that contact me via email every month because of my name in the Top Answerers list. Rest assure that people do watch it. And yes, I agree with you that the OP of that question is milking it. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:11 | comment | added | user159834 | @Manishearth: Yes, the idea makes sense because it warps the vote counts on smaller sites, but in this case the votes came from SO (where the question remains). And now I see there is a fresh bounty - so I can't help but think the OP of the question in question is also milking it. | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:08 | comment | added | Manishearth | @WesleyMurch: Exactly. I would have supported this if the motive was different. (see bottom of my post below) | |
| Apr 23, 2012 at 4:08 | comment | added | user159834 | I feel like the motive behind your post seems to be personal rather than for the benefit of Stack Exchange as a whole, which probably isn't going to get much support. | |
