• Imagine if you clicked “this is an opinion question” that it would automatically delete, that would be so awesome…

  And an automator that would search questions for words like “god, do you like, i think” etc.

  oh imagine a fluther without the bullshit.

  oh and yes, you should dump him !

• I like it. The extra screen space is nice. I was using greasemonkey to delete the div for the “ask” box. I would disable it to ask a question. I really like the new system. It saves me a bit of work.

• I like the new ask system. It’s nice. It can help filter out all the bad questions. Good job as always, Bendrew! (:

• I’ve liked the new system since it was rolled out. It is great to be prompted to think through the reasons behind a question, I also really like the live preview off to the side.

• OK.. Total pony request. I know you like things to be clean and clutter free.

  Maybe a button that says “Is this a question about your computer?” And then it asks what your OS is and shows how to find out if you don’t know. And then add that to the question as a tag.

  I have typed “Windows, Mac, or Linux?” so many times.

  Just a thought.

• I lurve iWamota’s idea of an automatic “search” result for similar questions – might cut down on the eternal questions about jailbreak, the end of the world in 2012, whether you believe in gosts/aliens/life after death/and so on.

• I think grumpyfish is kind of cute. He has his priorities straight, which is a rare thing in this day and age.

  Is he single? Um…my friend wants to know…

• @johnpowell I quite like the idea of “Is this a question about your iPhone?” and then if you check the box, it closes the browser window and opens twelve popups that say “GTFO”.

• Question for Jeep fanatics:

  I recently came upon a pea soup green, embossed with the JEEP logo, collapsable, folding leg BBQ, in basically mint condition. Is there any interest out there for this portable grill? It is as clean as can be.
