SO is a bit of a culture shock from other places. Its not a forum, it's a little bit wikipedia ish. Having your question closed is not a hostile act, it's part of creating crowd sourced editing of content. Sometimes questions that could be good get closed, sometimes questions that are bad don't get closed ( at least for several years ). While you may wish it to be a little more friendly, its main goal is to provide high quality content especially for professional developers, and the thing is, it is very successful at doing that, so be careful to understand how it gets a lot of high quality content because a lot of other sites tried and failed to do the same thing. Be very careful to fit into the culture of SO, if you want to chat about problems, find a forum, go on gitter, or some other space. On SO, best thing you can do is edit the original question if its badly done and you care about the question. Make it better.
