| Aug 23, 2021 at 10:32 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | That's a general issue. If you can salvage a question (for example by removing parts) you should prefer that over simple close voting. But often that's not possible, because essential information really is missing. Editors should not have to guess. | |
| Aug 4, 2021 at 11:25 | comment | added | This_is_NOT_a_forum | Re "certain members don't read the question, but are only interested in scanning them for buzzwords": Yes, that is a well-known problem on most Stack Exchange sites. (That excludes homework/code writing sites like Mathematics and Unix & Linux.) | |

Used the official name of two sites (ref. <https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/tour>).

| Jul 29, 2021 at 9:59 | comment | added | V2Blast StaffMod | We've sometimes had similar issues (or perceived issues) on RPG.SE, with users voting to close something as off-topic for asking for RPG/tool/etc. recommendations instead of focusing on the parts of the question that are answerable/allowed on the site. (There have been quite a few conversations on Meta about that sort of potential problem.) Thankfully, the community is generally pretty good about helping users ask "stackable" questions rather than just closing them and walking away. | |
