Oct 23, 2018 at 22:56 comment added thatgirldm FWIW, I look at it as "how many options are there and would a group of people together select one option (or a specific set of options) to the exclusion of the others?". Asking for a set of steps to make a thing happen, which is what I was angling for in my wording and which you did better in your version, is not opinion-based. There's (likely to be) a limited set of possible steps which answers can coalesce around. Asking for individual people's reasons for doing the thing, on the other hand, is opinion-based, because everyone's personal reasons are valid for them.

Oct 23, 2018 at 19:57 comment added Nick Tydryszewski That does clear it up a little bit. I guess it's just a fine line between which opinions are opinions and which are acceptable opinions. But hey, that's what mods are for right? Thanks for the tips on fixing it rather than just the damnation. ^.^
Oct 23, 2018 at 17:59 comment added Wibbs @Newbie12345 a lot of our questions ask for opinions, and whether to close a question as primarily opinion based is a judgement call. Generally, if a question can be answered based on good, subjective experience then its fine. Where questions cross the line is when the only way to answer is to pluck something out of thin air

Oct 23, 2018 at 15:24 comment added Newbie12345 @NautArch Thanks for the reminder. I am curious about the answer to Nick's question as well. I have never seen a good explanation for it other than "moderator experience and intuition"

Adding missing word in title & removing opinion from question

Rewritten to make this more of a "question" than a discussion.
