The community expects folks posting questions to have done at least a tiny modicum of work before asking for help. You even admitted in the comments from back then that:

"@event_jr. Screw you. I'm looking for a quick elisp solution not your opinion. No one is doing my homework. I'm just getting a answer to something that I thought would be useful. Thanks correct. I don't want to put a lot of work into it. I have a Perl solution that'll do."

and

"I did zero, zippo. No work before asking."

So you know, you only had yourself to blame there.

I'm not debating the value of my question. Between two different accounts, I've asked over 150 questions since the beginning. You can have whatever rules you want. I disagreed and quit StackOverFlow. I'm not contributing to the site. I've been on the Internet for over 20 years. I know where and how to get answers.

At the moment, I'm pointing out the the juvenile "beat downs" that happen certainly don't make the site appealing to a certain group of people. I'm sure that I'm not the only person who has quit in frustration.

Btw, it's great that you found my deleted comments. Can you also include his snarky comment to which I'm responding?

"Closed as not a real question" is really a ridiculous reason. You have asked how to implement a transformation of a well-defined input to a well-defined output using elisp. If that's "not a real question" by SO's standards, then it's about the time the site dies...

Same happened to me. That was the moment I stopped posting answers. I was a very active user before that.
