Comment Post #278364 @Moshi Is there a specific reason that you did not quote the whole sentence? The sentence is "**If you want me to find them**, you should first appoint me as Codidact chief executive officer." Do you know how one can find out the meaning of a conditional sentence? Do you know that the consequent of a...

Comment Post #278364 @Moshi It is **obvious** to **all** that I never said "why not just let me do it?" nor meant that; I explicitly stated in my answer that I can find other unpaid employees to manage Codidact. I am never interested in such positions. I can assure you the community team are aware of the mentioned post a...

Question I cannot understand the meaning of disrespectful.
(Please note that I write this post only for the record. I personally do not hope that some changes will be made.) I have been informed of some contradictory policies (attitudes), which I personally do not care, but they may cause some abuses threatening the Codidact future. They are not disres...

Comment Post #278313 @FoggyFinder Sorry, I cannot accept your implication. Let us allow the author of the post clarify what they meant.In fact, the clause after "too busy",which can be easily understood from the rest of the text, was ellipted.The sentence without any ellipsis is :"they are too busy to consider Codidact a...

Comment Post #278313 @FoggyFinder (Continued) Please see some comment under the below answer: "The post is however classic internet trolling: not interested in contributing constructively but posting for the sole reason to cause conflict and drama." Such a comment has not been considered as *disrespectful*; then, my sent...

Comment Post #278313 Thirdly, the sentence you quoted is a professional advice to the community team. I reread it many times, and I **cannot** find any disrespect in it. Some of the community team stated somewhere in my thread that they are busy and they can devote only their free time to Codidact, so I advised them eith...

Comment Post #278313 @FoggyFinder Firstly, you do not need to ask for my permission to advise me; even, any offensive disrespectful nonconstructive criticism would be welcomed. Secondly, my last paragraph is the most important part of my answer; I would not have posted my answer if that part had not been to be put. By th...

Question Why not have a physics community for physics enthusiasts?
Update Jan 4, 2021: launched []()Although I still believe that launching new communities should be postponed and that a math & physics community is a better choice for the current state of Codidact, since a separate math community has been launched, let us have a physics community. Physic...

Comment Post #278313 "You should all step down and give me complete power" is another false claim; I never said that. I only mentioned a sentence **in parentheses** stating that **if** you are unable to find unpaid employees, I can do that in case I have some authority. I mentioned such a statement **only** because of pr...

Comment Post #278313 "The answer, especially in the broader context of the question (from the same author) and other activity, came across as disrespectful bordering on personal attack" is obviously a false claim. I always use respectful language in my posts, which is completely clear in my posts on Meta. Some community ...

Answer A: Voluntariness vs. Responsibility, which of them should be considered as a priority for the community team?
Since the other answers did not satisfactorily address my concerns, I'll post my answer to the question. If we want to have a successful community, then its community managers (team) should work as paid staff do. There is a (somewhat harsh to some people) fact stating: If you want to have a succe...

Question Informing community users of new permissible features
It seems that permissible features which are voted up considerably will be added to a community. By "permissible" I mean those features which are not rejected by the community team due to some policies or technical considerations. However, as we know well, only a small part of any community member...

Question Voluntariness vs. Responsibility, which of them should be considered as a priority for the community team?
Before starting the concern, I want to appreciate and acknowledge the community team for their volunteer efforts to run Codidact and handle its issues as far as they can. When I sometimes talk to some people about the state of some unhandled issues, I am answered explicitly or implicitly that "the...

Question What are the close reasons on Codidact?
In my opinion the following should be the only default close reason for any Codidact community: - CoC (without the problematic sentence) violation - obvious spam, like posting nonsense things or promoting - (obviously) off-topic post - too vague such that no one can answer - (exactly) duplica...

Question Codidact is a Q&A platform or a teaching community?
The following is an excerpt from this community staff's answer: > I definitely didn't thought of the CoC-version of "Not Constructive" when I added the "Not Constructive"-close reason. The intention was to catch posts, which aren't helpful to anyone (What's 1+1? rather than How to add two numbers?...

Question Let us have a transparent review system.
Issue According to the answers provided by the community staff to this post, I conclude that one of the Codidact policies is empowering moderators to take some required actions in some situations and allowing users to request the community team or a "Review Panel" to review the token actions. H...

Comment Post #278183 Thanks for your answer.

Please also ...

Question Why prefer Codidact to Stack Exchange?
As I explained in this post and some community staff confirmed, Codidact is almost a miniature version of SE. In fact, I see no radical difference between them. As we know, almost all (in my opinion, all without exception) people coming to Codidact are already familiar with SE. So, why should we e...

Comment Post #277917 Thanks for your answer. Can I conclude from your answer that the Codidact community team prefer to preserve the basic features of the SE model, which is a successful one, and try to improve them, rather than risk testing a novel idea?

Question Does Codidact have to be too similar to SE?
Examining Codidact communities, one can easily find out that Codidact is almost a duplicate of SE I know that many Codidact users (or maybe all of them) are current or former SE users, so it was expectable that the Codidact community team, who have gotten into the habit of using SE networks, would...
