Problem marked as "solved" without naming the solution is a regular thing on stackexchange. I hate it with a vengeance.

I recently read a post of someone saying he loves fucking with people by going on forums commenting on unsolved issues "I managed to solve it! Finally!" without saying how nor never replying to people asking what he did. So you might have seen him.

I recently found a thread that went like this:

The whole thread is filled with posts that just say "same."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

And OP saying "I fixed it" with no explanation, and then someone saying they fixed it too, also without an explanation.

Few things make me want to reach through the screen and punch a person as much as that.
