>They complain about good questions being closed, you say "that's because they are bad questions"

Because they have not shown that they understand what a good question is, or what the standards are. Or because they presume that they are the ones who should get to say what makes a question good or not.

>you say "that's because we don't close bad questions".

????? I said nothing of the sort.

>other than "we are great".

This, too, is your wording, not mine.

But, again. Show concrete examples in a suitable manner, or there is nothing to discuss.

> Because they usually can. There aren't enough curators paying attention. Stopping them generally requires three curators to find the same question and act on it before an answer is posted.
