Abusive or insulting comments attached to incorrect question reports need to stop.
The people who review these reports and make corrections are giving their time to help maintain a site that is completely free to use. They should not have to put up with rude, sarcastic or abusive comments while doing so.
A large number of our questions are sourced automatically, which means that occasionally an answer may be incorrect. Some questions have also been in the database for a long time, and it simply isn't practical for us to check every question every day to see whether an answer has changed.
If you spot an error, please report it because we genuinely appreciate it. Just leave the snarky comments out of it. Politeness costs nothing.
If the abusive comments continue, we will seriously consider taking the site offline. We provide it for free, and nobody volunteering their time to maintain it should have to deal with abuse for doing so.
