How do I inform someone that they have been given the wrong advice once the Question is “resolved?”?
Some people have email and/or IM enabled; click on their name to see their profile. Also, on resolved questions there’s the option to leave a ‘comment’. This enables you to do just that, comment on a question regardless of whether it’s a correction, addition or agreement. It isn’t that obvious a link, it’s the ‘add/view comments’ link immediately underneath the ‘best answer’, but it’s better than nothing. Since it’s so little noticable I don’t search around for places to leave comments, I prefer open questions, but I have left a comment once when I truly believed the ‘best answer’ had the facts completely and utterly wrong.
