This website focuses more on policing how you ask the question, rather than actually taking the time to answer your specific problem. I asked an extremely specific question about variables resetting, and how many if/else statements I need.
Find somewhere else to get your answers.
Good to find a question, useless to ask a question. In the past, it was a great place and still, you can find a lot of useful information. Now it has a rubbish community that minus your every question if it has more than two sentences.
Great website, garbage community. Apparently everyone here is a stuck up asshole who if you type a question that's too long to read (when it isn't), you'll get spammed with downvotes and your question will be put on hold. And this happens with a matter of seconds, not hours. "Like, holy fucking shit, your question is too long for my lazy fatass to read? You fucking inferior human being get out of our community" It's insane and hard to comprehend that a community this shit is actually allowed to exist.
There seriously needs to be a person with a brain to come along and moderate this website, because if there was, then half of the people there would be banned within a week.
need an answer to something in computerscience? stackoverflow
also reddit.com is helpful
quora if you want biased answers
If you want to be troll fodder for the moderators and such, go there. Some stuff is weak code seeded by hackers. If you ask a question that doesn't have a text book answer, it gets down voted. It used to be a nice site till the trolls took over as moderators, and down vote or delete questions.
This site tries to cater to the programming community, but its a gimmick to try to sell you "advice" that can be obtained free.
