Depending on the scenario, I may only remove it from the host network question list. | |

Which, @BMitch, is kinda what the Protect option is all about, right?

Mods can still protect the question and also remove it from the hot network question queue. We also get automated flags when a question suddenly gets 10+ answers. | |
