| Aug 18, 2014 at 19:52 | comment | added | user5232 | This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things (WARNING: TV Tropes). Human nature can be a nuisance (I even annoy myself at times). In general subjective questions are difficult to handle; this kind of question combines subjectivity with being relatively localized. A broader question like "How can I express enthusiasm and intelligence in formal correspondence?" with the text as an example might be okay, moving in the direction of general technique. | |

| Aug 23, 2013 at 17:43 | comment | added | Goodbye Stack Exchange | @LaurenIpsum - It's a bit buried now. We can edit the on-topic questions page but not the off-topic one. So it's on the former. (It wasn't there, so I added it.) | |
| Aug 23, 2013 at 17:39 | comment | added | Goodbye Stack Exchange | @LaurenIpsum I think it used to be in the old FAQ, but SE has changed all of that into the "help center". We had written a good amount of text and linked to relevant meta threads, but I can't find it anymore. I'll look into this and see if it can be done. | |
| Aug 23, 2013 at 10:42 | comment | added | Lauren-Clear-Monica-Ipsum | @NeilFein Since you're referencing this as an official reason for putting an answer on hold, can we add it to the FAQ somewhere? (Or tell me where you did add already, because I can't find it?) | |
| May 8, 2012 at 0:53 | comment | added | Nathan C. Tresch | I also pointed out, in the original question, that I think if it were asked correctly, that I would get an answer right now, I'm just better at asking than they were... | |
| May 7, 2012 at 22:49 | comment | added | Nathan C. Tresch | I answered in my post, if that was bad let me know, but I didn't have room! | |
