At times, I find stackoverflow community rude. It is, as if all they care about is boasting their virtual ego i.e. points.

Welcome to devRant! If they come to devRant they have to leave the attitude behind 😀

Yes, I would like that 😀 @Jumpshot44

i was thinking of building like a non SO documentation board like allowing people to make ammendments and stuff

@wildgoosecsharp like commits?

like a more welcoming version of stackoverflow based around documentating thing - So is question based im thinking explaining langauges and such and allowing people to upvote on things that work.

i hate the idea of people being left out because of being new - anyone willing to learn is welcome.

@wildgoosecsharp mind sharing your idea? Sounds quite interesting. Is the idea to provide some kind of "global" blog were people can document (post entries) explaining certain things or behaviours?

is it still Q/A type? or is it documententation with the ability that anyone can alter it?@wildgoosecsharp

ikr! I was a java begginer and asked a well question on Android's context thingy, all I received was hate. @Fixxel

its something ive been working out in my head for a while - main focus was to be a cross between how wiki allows anyone to edit and how stack allows people to assist.

not 100% with how it would work but i would wanna intergrate alot into it as well as a decent community base the whole point is freedom of code

less of a blog imagin code where everything in it is clickable and draws up examples

Truth has been spoken

I actually replied to a comment telling him: 'that was a douche response. post to help not be a douche'

@wildgooseecsharp SO stole your idea

@heyheni @wildgoosecsharp holy that looks amazing! I hope it will become a thing some day. SO doc is really nice.

I find it all the times to be like that

Maybe their strict rules make for such a useful resource?

Unfortunate really.
I think that's in direct connection to the way the industry is; arrogance and ego being the loudest voice

The reason SO is so influential right now is the huge amount of time people put into trimming shitty questions. Down voting / close votes. I know it isn't a popular opinion here, but usually if a question is being down voted, there is a good reason.

If SO were left to accumulate bad questions, then SO would become an indecipherable mess. Nobody would use it.
