Closing this post Lifetime of muon decay frequencies histogram plot the moderation team said

But it indeed would be much better if frequent power members (like everyone here) would "Flag" the post with a short message that a post is potentially a blunt homework, - restraining from a response. Then we would catch it in time.

I don't think so. First of all, terms like frequent power members do not belong to a community of equals. Then, intimidation is not so good in stimulating questions. Last, there are no stupid questions.

Kicking off a home work question might prevent some other home worker from answering his or her first question in public.

What should be done to guard the Community against the gloom of desinterest and confusion?

Possibly the just solution is to invent three new groups

• potential homework
• plain homework
• blatant homework

and to send any post into them, which looks like a mere forward of lecturer's question. Then everybody is free to dig in or not. Nobody must be called off. In addition, answers in these three groups should not push notifications, forcing problem owners at least to poll for a potential reaction.

What do you think?
