purim torah in jest - Why didn't Esther listen to Mordechai's instructions?




Mordechai instructed Esther the Queen,



וּמִי יוֹדֵעַ אִם לְעֵת כָּזֹאת הִגַּעַתְּ לַמַּלְכוּת



Translation:



Ask on Mi Yodeya if this is the reason you came to be a Queen.



(It seems that the term Mi Yodeya was used as the term Google is nowadays, e.g "just Google it", - "just Mi Yodeya it.")



Why didn't Esther ask the question on Mi Yodeya?
Could she have been scared that rule-following nudniks would close her question as off-topic?
Wouldn't Mordechai HaTazddaik have reopened her question for her?


Are we to assume that he would have held less of a Reputation than the closure crowd?
