Question on Question Numbers / Counting Totals October 14th, 2014 Ed Chait October 11 at 8:03pm · Edited I was just assigned question #363831, but Shea posted that we had over 400,000 questions. Just curious, did we start counting late or something like that? LikeLike · Seen by 38 Corpuz Valdemor Avellaneda Ramil likes this. Ed Chait Is it because of the questions on the website making up the difference? October 11 at 8:08pm · Like Kristi-Joy Matovich I’m fairly certain the current answering system is not our original, but Shea Houdmann knows better than I. October 11 at 8:29pm · Like · 1 Shea Houdmann Ed, Kristi-Joy is partially correct. When we started using the current system, we were able to import most of the questions we had answered previously into the system, but not all of them. Plus, we answer questions every day via email, completely outside of the Q&A system. Add all of those together, and we are over 400,000 questions answered. October 11 at 9:29pm · Edited · Like · 2 Ed Chait Ahh, thank you Shea. I knew it had to be something like that, but just curious. Does someone make software specific to what GQ does? October 11 at 9:37pm · Edited · Like Shea Houdmann Yes, there are software systems that we could use, but they are very expensive. Ours is a custom made solution. October 11 at 9:37pm · Like · 2 Ed Chait Thanks again Shea! October 11 at 9:38pm · Like Tim White Ed, I had the very same question in my mind this week. Great minds? ??
