Honestly, from a "processing FAQ-flagged posts" perspective, it doesn't really matter--it's not any more work on our end if a post shows up and gets dealt with sooner or later.

If it has only one FAQ on a post, there's been times where I've wanted to retract it after realising it's not actually a candidate and the RAW text is clear.

We don't even see it in the FAQ queue until it has about 8 clicks, so don't worry about it. :)

Er, really?

Is a question with more FAQ-clicks more likely to be answered?

No. The staff can see that some posts have a lot of FAQ flags, but the staff also evaluates the complexity of the question, how much impact the answer has on player characters, and other factors. Just because someone managed to rally a lot of support about a particular question doesn't mean it's the most important, urgent, or relevant question.
In other words, sometimes it’s better or more efficient for the staff to answer a question with fewer FAQ flags than one with many FAQ flags.

This one should probably be a little clearer, that's not how I read it!

I don't understand what you mean.

That's two different questions. Sean basically is saying they don't see a question until it hits 8+ FAQ clicks. That answer says that it doesn't matter if it has 8 clicks or 800 clicks, the team will answer them in the order they think it's important, more or less.

Oh right, I was looking at it the other way around - a question with 8 FAQ clicks is more likely to be answered than a question with 2 or 3.
