Question: For just this brief time during the recalc, can we agree to close as "off topic" on SO with a comment link to the recalc blog post instead of migrating to meta where we simply have to go through the exercise again?

Answer: 
I feel bad for a lot of these people. First, some of them put time into researching what happened. Some even write detailed posts explaining what they did to troubleshoot the problem. Then they get barked at for asking the question, and downvoted (reducing their rep even more).

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY SOMEONE PLEASE PUT A BANNER UP ON SO!!!

Makes sense.

I don't see the point of burning up close votes on two sites for the same questions.
