- webmaven 10y agoA bit of both. Both were on some screwed-up blacklist, 1st attempts to get them whitelisted ran into comprehension problems due to the words "hacker" and "stack overflow", subsequent attempts ran into difficulty that I couldn't identify a vendor associated with the sites, and only after that was I able to tackle the cultural issue of discussion/Q&A sites being important resources (it helped that both sites came up on the 1st page of results for queries that were directly relevant to tasks I had been assigned).
