Since recently I started replying to questions posted on this site.
What I noticed (a lot) and experienced was the following scenario:
a. New question posted;
b. a reply with the correct answer;
c. another reply which was not correct;
d. another reply which rephrased the correct reply as given earlier;
e. points awarded to the last person.
Therefore my suggestion to this site is the following:
When replying, "lock" the thread, after the reply is submitted keep the thread locked. The originator will based on the reply, open or close the thread again after which a new reply can be submitted, etc.
Obviously this process is more fair and will reduce a lot of duplicate replies....
Kind regards,
Robert
PS. I apologize if this has been suggested already, I did not do a search on it....
