I find some topics are much better than others on SO. It's pretty useful for Python and SQL, from my experience.

It's especially irritating when these elitist types clearly don't know as much as they think they do.

I find it to be a great resource if someone has already answered your question, especially if I find it via Google. As for asking questions, it's a bit off-putting to be immediately downvoted without explanation, and to not get a single answer.
Point is, it's good resource to free-ride but not actively participate.

Banks were signing off on the erroneous foreclosures without properly reviewing them. And, if Matt Taibbi is to believed, the courts weren't of much help to the victims of fraudulent forclosures. http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/matt-taibbi-courts...

Complying and taking down the legitimate links should force WB to properly review their requests.
This case is kind of funny, but something similar started happening when banks started automating foreclosures. People who were up to date on their mortgages were getting evicted from exactly the same kind of negligence WB is exhibiting here.

Was the fraud uncovered by the crisis, or was it known about and tolerated until it turned into a crisis?
