Mar 8, 2012 at 16:46 comment added yannis Mod @Rachel it was trying to figure out why the question existed in the first place Remember that you didn't actually ask a question, you simply stated your disagreement. That's what was irrelevant and it should have been posted as an answer to the proposal Meta question. Next time when you want to ask for clarifications, please consider actually asking for clarifications.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:44 comment added Rachel I disagree with that. The question was very relevant to the question because it was trying to figure out why the question existed in the first place. Just agree to disagree, and drop the subject.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:37 comment added yannis Mod @Rachel For the last time: You posted a comment that was irrelevant to the question and I directed you to the question where your comment would be relevant. I did not comment on the merits of your opinions, just on the fact that you posted them on the wrong place.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:35 comment added Rachel Alright, and in return, take a minute to try and see things from another person's point of view instead of immediately assuming they understand how you want the site to work and telling them their opinions are irrelevant.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:32 comment added yannis Mod @Rachel I told you to stop posting irrelevant comments in chat after I directed you to the STCI Meta question, both in chat and Meta.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:31 comment added yannis Mod @Rachel Now you know. Please consider what I said, and add any comments you have on STCI in an answer there instead of in random comments. And next time you feel "mad", please take a moment to think that there might be something you are missing.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:31 comment added Rachel And yes, I stated my point of view on something (in this case, disagreement with solution because it didn't match the proposed solution) instead of asking a question directly. I assumed that it would be easily understood by people that I was disagreeing with the question, and that if I was incorrect someone would explain why the solution was different than the proposed solution. I didn't expect someone to tell me to stop posting irrelevant comments, and to link me to a question which I did not immediately see as being related to the question.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:26 comment added Rachel That might be the first sentence, but the question continues to ask for each answer to contain a problem and a solution. I assumed the link was a discussion about the STCI, not something that actually contained a solution that would be implemented in addition to any solutions posted to the question.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:24 comment added yannis Mod @Rachel (cont...) And you never actually asked for clarifications, you stated your disagreement.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:20 comment added yannis Mod @Rachel The first sentence on the call for proposals is: "This is a call for proposals for the Structured Tag Cleanup Initiative." - I think it's perfectly reasonable to assume that when a proposal is part of STCI, everything in the proposal will follow the generic guidelines of STCI.
Mar 8, 2012 at 16:15 comment added Rachel My issue is that you linked to one question, which was asking for tags and solutions, and then implemented a different solution for cleaning up the tag. You said it was because the tag got so many upvotes, however it was both the tag and the solution that got upvotes. And you made me mad by telling me that asking for clarification on why a different solution was implement was "irrelevant"
