Please note that LinuxExchange will be shutting down on December 31st, 2016. Visit this thread for additional information and to provide feedback.

Coming from the StackExchange universe, I have two questions wrt LinuxExchange:

  • Can questions/answers be flagged for moderator attention?
  • Is there a LE Meta, or should generic questions like this one end up here?

Thanks.

  • Yes, you can click "more->report" to bring something to the attention of a mod.
  • For now we are just using the meta tag, which I've added to this question for you.

Thanks. Is there a karma threshold when these tools become available? In SE they provide a list of privileges and thresholds when attained, but I couldn't find any such in LE.

The FAQ, which is linked from every page, does have a karma threshold list. http://linuxexchange.org/faq/

Well, yes, indeed it does. But then I'm confused. The FAQ karma thresholds say nothing about flagging posts, which would imply that all users should see this functionality. While in the interface that I see, I can only "link|award points" for posts that are not mine. So I'm not sure what's wrong..

At this time you can only flag at the question level. We'll look into adding the ability to flag comments and individual answers in the future.
