Long ago, I asked why is there an "Advanced topic" section when every
thread that gets started there gets moved. I don't just mean questions that are not advanced, they are properly moved to Beginners or Intermediate.
Just look at the section, the vast majority of threads are moved or closed.
I don't get it.
Here is an example, my thread:
https://coderanch.com/t/432346/OO-Patterns-UML-Refactoring/Philosophy-List-Collection-returns#top
is not about OO in general, Paterns, Gang of Four, UML, or refactoring. ITs about the engineering decisions that advanced
Java designers have to make.
And it got some intellegent answers when it was in Advanced. It got moved, and has died.
I'm not too worried about one thread, but I fail to see what is the point of a section if all of the threads are killed out of it.
Can some of the old time Bartenders shed some light here?
Thanks
Pat
