It is correct according to the rules of stackoverflow but the wording "closed as not constructive" is still w r o n g.
"Closed because there is a fair chance it will not be constructive" maybe? "Closed because this and this and that person felt there where a fair chance it would not be constructive?"
Oh, by the way: discourse is still a sandbox it seems: from http://try.discourse.org/ http://try.discourse.org/ - "THIS SITE IS A SANDBOX – it is reset every day"
- rmrfrmrf 13y agoI see crying like this all the time from people that hate StackOverflow, but (surprise!) there is not a single constructive answer on that page. The top voted answer starts with "Personally"! It has been said time and time again that StackOverflow is not meant to be a masturbratory playground for theoretical development; it's meant for discrete problems with discrete solutions. That's not to say that there isn't a need for a site that discusses the pros and cons of different development tools ad nauseum, but that use case is explicitly outside of the scope of StackOverflow.
