/g/

I'm building one with different rules that don't promote being shitty, but no one will ever use it. I was thinking of scraping SO, but google would penalize me for that (those FUCKS).

Unfortunately a majority of those people looking to answer questions on programming forums are just there to fed their own ego and give themselves a feeling of superiority

It sure as fuck ain't /g/

What's worse is the guys who come on and imagine the worst use case for what your trying to do and then try and lecture you about why you shouldn't do something even though that's not even what you were trying to do.

I hate stackoverflow too. I'm using C++ and never got a question properly answered, only pretentious faggots berating me for using their language without 10 years of expertise.

>>60460445
Has anybody ever visited StackOverflow to find a question which has not been closed to due to some violation of guidelines?

The best ones are when you are asking how to do X in library Y and some asshole responds how you should use some completely different library Z instead.

>>60460767
Also when you mention in the question that you read the documentation but you didnt understand a specific point and in the answer they tell you to read the documentation.

That's a good one
When /g/ pepe /r9k/ memers keep their Intel vs AMD threads far away, only then will I even consider this valid

You're not supposed to actually ask questions on stackoverflow, you're supposed to search through the questions already asked to find something that works for you.

>simple c++ related question
>highest voted answer is unreadable but GENERIC mess combining five different libraries from the stl, uses template magic, exceptions and is forced into a class structure with all the boilerplate that comes with it

StackExchange will probably spoil your mood if you are occasional visitor. Other than that the community is exceptional and enlightened.

Retarded downvotes happened to me but the overall impression is very positive.
