The End of (Mathematical) Times @AsafKargila Well, probably because it is possible to downvote a question but it is not possible to downvote a comment. Regarding that house thing, this is the house of this community, not mine, not yours; but according to what you have written, I guess you see yourself as a more "important" member of this house. The fact that you have been here longer than me does not justify anything. Besides, my question does not hurt you, but the fact that it is closed hurts me. I am sure you can understand that. |

The End of (Mathematical) Times @AsafKaragila This website is not "your" house, that is my whole point. |

The End of (Mathematical) Times Seriously, how can you close a question when the community likes it? Unbelievable... |

The End of (Mathematical) Times In any case, I do not intend to start the "great war of ego justification." I wish you luck in your future endeavours. Apparently, this website is not for me as some of you have mentioned. |

The End of (Mathematical) Times @guy, $\mathbb{R}^n$: There is no reason to kid ourselves regarding the famousness-acceptance function, not only in these kinds of websites, but in the real life as well. Example: mathoverflow.net/questions/38639/thinking-and-explaining (I greatly admire the author and have nothing against him, may he rest in peace). In this context, what makes the moderators "distinguished" is their so-called reputation points. The community, on the other hand, liked this question apparently as it received "upvotes" since its inception, but moderators just didn't care about it. |

The End of (Mathematical) Times This is sad; the editorial board should sometimes leave it for the community to decide or at least wait for a few answers for the asker's sake. What is ironic is that if I were a "famous mathematician," I am sure this would not happen, and all your "criteria" would just somehow fail. I consider your decisions unfair and unjust, especially against someone who is trying to contribute. |

The End of (Mathematical) Times I am sorry to hear that. Regarding fact, references, expertise, etc., the opinions may be supported by historical evidence regarding how mathematics is developed, so the question at hand is not completely subjective. I think the answers may give insight about how mathematics is practiced or how should one practice it. |

How to integrate $\int_0^{\pi/2}\frac{\sin^nx}{\sin^nx+\cos^nx}dx$? Hmmmm.......... |

a limit involving derivative Unless the function is flat, I guess the result is (via L'Hopital) $a^n$ where $n$ is the first natural number where the $n$th derivative of $f$ is non-zero. I don't see how convexity or $f(1) = 1$ will be relevant here... |

a limit involving derivative How would the information $f(1) = 1$ have any effect on the final result? |

A simple inequality with logarithms and exponential Are the logs $\log_2$ instead of $log2$? |

2 color theorem Oh I got it now, you start from a blank paper but your line can self-intersect :) |

2 color theorem You mean I pick an arbitrary graph, start from an arbitrary point, draw a line an come back, and look at the new graph? |

Proof of the Sum of Square Roots $\exists a>0,b>0$ with $\sqrt{a+b} = \sqrt{a}+\sqrt{b}$? The problem is there is no such $a$ and $b$. |

Mean value theorem help? For the one with $e^x$, how about checking the Taylor series for $e^x$? |
