SO changed its policies a long time ago already... they don't want to answer your questions. They hate your questions (and by extension, they hate you!).
It's ok, you deserve the hate. After all, you're asking the wrong questions.
They want questions that are "textbook-worthy" or possibly "encyclopedia worthy". They're on record as having said this officially. If programming and technology is just messier than that, if it's more complicated than that, and you still have questions that don't fit because of it... well, fuck you. They don't exist to answer your questions, they exist to answer great questions that they can use to build up this pretty little sight that now has some purpose other than whatever it was you thought you were using it for.
The Z guy, he's playing their game. He's awesome. You, you need to be punished until you comply.
