Abuse of solutions in Q&A

Quite right, but why beat your head against a wall fighting it? If there's a system, there will be people trying to game it. Nothing new here, and there's nothing to be gained by trying to fix it. Some people are born to be losers/users. Useful, productive people have always been plagued by them, and always will be. Don't let them get your panties in a bunch. Move along, nothing to see here...

I saw a person posting each question he had as a separate question over here and people flocked to it giving links which were either already given in previous solutions or new links which could have been found by the poster with a simple google search. Now I wouldn't mind seeing people helping out even for those questions but seriously? 3 to 5 solutions for a simple question which could be solved by a google search? I think this is more of a "Post and gain points". Some of them just don't read to see if existing answers are valid.

Another problem is when someone posts "Read a book" or "Google it" as the answer. I do go to QA sometimes but I filter down to Unanswered ones so some of them get lost because some bozo posted an answer that is not an answer.
