| Mar 31, 2017 at 21:14 | comment | added | Philip Kendall Mod | @Nij This was actually a slightly different case in that the question was automatically protected by the Community user after it got spammed, rather than just the "regular" bumping to the homepage (which wouldn't have happened for that question as it had an upvoted accepted answer). But your point in general is still valid :-) | |
| Mar 31, 2017 at 21:04 | comment | added | Nij Mod | Community ♦ is not the same thing as the community. Automatic protections have no relationship to topicality. Sports is just one of several sites using the Community bumps to identify old questions that are no longer suitable, then removing them. You need to understand just how long Stack Exchange, Sports in particular, has been going, and how far the standards have shifted in that time. | |
| Mar 31, 2017 at 12:04 | comment | added | Philip Kendall Mod | Have you noticed that the question you noted as also being off-topic has now been closed appropriately? Thank you for pointing that out, but going on about this is now getting unnecessary. | |
| Mar 30, 2017 at 21:49 | comment | added | Philip Kendall Mod | But you still willingly deleted it. If the deletion was really unwilling, would you like the question to be undeleted so you can try to improve it? | |
| Mar 25, 2017 at 7:11 | comment | added | Nij Mod | Writing "in fact" does not make it fact. | |
| Mar 25, 2017 at 2:47 | comment | added | Michael Myers Mod | @gdrt94: Perhaps you meant "in effect" then? | |
| Mar 24, 2017 at 12:03 | comment | added | Philip Kendall Mod | "On hold" isn't the death knell for a question. You had the option to improve the question and make it on-topic; however you decided, of your own free will, not to try and improve it but instead to press "delete". | |
