Then somebody with a lot of twitter followers ranted about a couple questions, and in under an hour a site had been removed from HNQ across the network. Surprise -- turns out they can do it! And so people from other sites started asking too. Since, in the wake of the tweetpocalypse, I imagine that smart, motivated users could otherwise plot to plant questions that would get sites booted, I'm hoping SE realized the wisdom of doing it the nice way instead. :-) | |
