I hate when things are unclear. Is this suit and tie or just a nice collared shirt?

button down shirt, dress pants and a tie at the minimum. if it is specifically business casual you could do khakis and no tie.

what is really unclear is this topic title

are you asking us "is business attire casual or formal"
or are you asking is "what constitutes casual or formal when it comes to business attire"

I assume the latter because the former is a ridiculous question, but man, what an unclear sentence.

Business attire in my mind definitely means suit + tie.

That's the thing. It's not specifying. Is 'business attire' its own thing? The only thing google returns is that it might be a sports coat instead of a dress coat.

Yeah, I'll go ahead and do that. Better to be overdressed.

And when did you stop being a mod?

Since business casual is a very well-known term, I would think that whoever told you to wear business attire would have specified casual if that were the case.

Relevant: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Informal_attire

And as you said, it's almost always better to overdress than underdress.

Business aint formal or casual. Its business. Formal is what u wear to formal events like a wedding or funerel. Casual is a shirt and khakis. Business is shirt and tie and nicer pants.

If people aren't wearing ties, you can always take it off!

I haven't worked the queue in about a month. I've barely looked at how we were supposed to handle things with the new ToU, and it seemed a good time to get out since I wasn't really thrilled with the new ToU anyway. I like the spirit of it, but I can't see why rules that are more vague is a good thing -- considering how often people yell "mod abuse" I'm surprised people like the changes.

You can wear a suit + no tie if you're afraid of over dressing
