I would've answered the question on the tech downturn but now refreshing the page (to see if anybody else answered in the meantime) it's about martial arts. htt

  I probably would have welcomed your answer! I'm sure it seemed like a betrayal to discover it changed completely, but rather than a huffy response and screenshot, if you'd truly cared or taken a minute to think before reacting, you could have always just emailed me your thoughts. Still a good question, but I would have changed how I worded it. Anyway, after 1 hour with zero votes, I thought...not enough engagement. You'll probably hate this, and I know it's a probably seems like a bad request / imperfect signalling but if you had upvoted it, I probably would have thought, well it's going somewhere. I'll edit it if I want to (and I can within the first 2 hours whenever I want)...from my point of view, why waste a slot on something that will not go anywhere? Anyway, stuff like this happens. It's unintentional, no malice on either side: get used to it; it's the internet; or adapt. Imperfect systems, structures, algorithms. Don't blame me--when you say that it sounds like you're blaming me--don't do that, I didn't do anything wrong. You could have waited until after the edit horizon. And if you'd regretted the chance to enlighten me with your point of view, you could have just emailed me. Regretted the chance to enlighten others? Write a blog post, and post it here. :)
