Unfortunately, for the most part it just doesn't work that way. ;-) More to the point, though some rules are good, I tend to think that if there's not a very good reason to disallow it (such as the likelihood of answers being denominational popularity contests or the occasion for flame wars), it's better to allow a question than to shut it down. | |

| Mar 30, 2018 at 3:35 | comment | added | Peter Turner Mod | FWIW, ID questions have been banned on the Movies site. Quite a bit of backlash too. I prefer highly subjective laissez-faire moderation and would never propose to make any brand of question off topic either. Bad questions should be closed, good questions should be upvoted. We probably should do something about the "what's this tape I listened to in 1985" question. | |
