If you ask a question on TibiaQA and it gets no responses, can you hide it and ask it again in a different form?

Question

Exactly what the header says. Can you hide a question you asked that recieved no feedback and ask it again?

I should add after an appropriate amount of time as passed ie. 3 months

Answer 1

Yes, you could do that. However, the optimal solution here is that the TibiaQA itself is capable of bumping (pushing to the top) questions that haven't received a satisfying answer yet. If you look at the https://www.tibiaqa.com/activity you will notice that some questions are marked as "bumped" by the community every now and then. Those are the questions classified as questions requiring more attention than they received so far (either no answer, or the current answers are not satisfying).

We would like to continue expanding this system that automatically bumps stale questions (or even a system that allows users to push them back up themselves).

The problem with hiding and asking the question again is that you lose all points that you collected on the hidden question.

Best,
Sebastian

Ah yes, I see what you mean. Thanks for that

Also, a lot of users look at questions that are unanswered I think more often than browsing the list of questions already answered. You can always edit your question too :) But good question~
