Mar 28, 2014 at 15:57 comment added Makoto Kato @AsafKaragila Maybe this is a language barrier. I mean by "a good question" a question which is mathematically interesting. Whether it is mathematically interesting is largely subjective. And claiming it here is off-topic.
Mar 28, 2014 at 15:49 comment added Asaf Karagila Mod No, you also claimed that it is not the case that the question was bad. "If the main thread clearly deserves the closure, it may be a troll. But it is not the case at all.", that was your claim, not mine.
Mar 28, 2014 at 15:47 comment added Makoto Kato @AsafKaragila [and so you are obviously prone to think that your question is a good question.] This is irrelevant to this thread. I'm not claiming my question is a good one. I'm claiming my question should not be closed.
Mar 28, 2014 at 15:21 comment added Asaf Karagila Mod I don't have an opinion about your question on the main site. I'm just remarking that you're obviously biased, and so you are obviously prone to think that your question is a good question.
Mar 28, 2014 at 15:15 comment added Makoto Kato @AsafKaragila [I have no idea why you think it is the meta post which causes me to call you a troll;] What makes you to call me a troll? [and your opinion is that the thread on main shouldn't be closed, but you are obviously biased.] Could you tell me why you think otherwise?
Mar 28, 2014 at 11:26 comment added Asaf Karagila Mod I have no idea why you think it is the meta post which causes me to call you a troll; and your opinion is that the thread on main shouldn't be closed, but you are obviously biased.
Mar 28, 2014 at 3:45 comment added Makoto Kato @AsafKaragila I have no idea why you think that a meta question asking for the reason of the closure of a main thread is a troll. If the main thread clearly deserves the closure, it may be a troll. But it is not the case at all.
Mar 25, 2014 at 21:28 comment added Asaf Karagila Mod "Why does the frequency matter if each one is legitimate?" ARE YOU SERIOUS? I used to give you at least some benefit of the doubt that you're not intentionally obtuse. I'm very happy to announce that I will not make this mistake ever again, you troll you.
Mar 25, 2014 at 21:12 comment added Makoto Kato @rschwieb Why does the frequency matter if each one is legitimate?
Mar 25, 2014 at 20:24 comment added rschwieb @MakotoKato You are still confusing two things. I do not think repeatedly ignoring the community's advice about the frequency of such posts is legitimate.
Mar 25, 2014 at 20:23 comment added Makoto Kato @rschwieb If you think it's legitimate, why do you request me to stop it?
Mar 25, 2014 at 20:12 comment added rschwieb @MakotoKato For the third time, nobody is claiming a question like this is illegitimate. Rather, this is about repeatedly ignoring community requests to stop doing it so frequently. Please note the difference.
Mar 25, 2014 at 19:05 comment added Asaf Karagila Mod @Makoto: Asking to try one piece of candy, to make sure you'll like it is not a problem. To just sit in the store and ask for more and more candy will get you kicked out. Stop insisting that whatever is fine "once" is fine "repeatedly, incessantly, and without self control".
Mar 25, 2014 at 18:08 comment added Makoto Kato @rschwieb Asking the reason for the closure of a main thread in the meta is perfectly legitimate. I have no idea why some people object to it.
Mar 25, 2014 at 17:28 comment added rschwieb Wow, I should really visit math overflow more often. The same user has posted at least six similar "Why is my question closed?" in math.stackexchange.meta . Despite requests to refrain from doing this so much, it looks like it goes on.
Mar 23, 2014 at 22:56 comment added Makoto Kato @AndyPutman [I voted to close because of the many previous meta threads about related matters that the OP has started. They seem to always end badly.] Are you saying that my meta question should be closed automatically whatever it is in this site?
Mar 23, 2014 at 15:20 comment added user9072 @AndyPutman re your last comment. This is an overstatement in my opinion. (This is a general remark; I do not wish to defend the question.)
Mar 23, 2014 at 3:04 comment added Andy Putman By the way, another reason for closing the question is that we do not allow cross-posting between math.se and MO unless a question has gone unanswered on math.se for a significant length of time (e.g. a couple of weeks).

Mar 23, 2014 at 1:14 comment added Makoto Kato @EricWofsey I bet one or both of the two people who voted to close this question are among the people who voted to close the question in the main.
Mar 23, 2014 at 0:28 comment added Eric Wofsey I am baffled by the votes to close. How is this question inappropriate for meta?
