By and large the new threads recently have been great. A few even nearly epic. But, we have had a few AMA's that seem to be pretty weak.

Maybe, new AMA's could require mod approval or some filter?

One of the filters should be "Is this person qualified".

There's been some recent "Real Estate AMA" that make no sense.

One of the filters should be "Is this person qualified".

That's the minimum, IMO. Otherwise: "I'm an English major, AMA about vascular surgery."

Or, more presciently, "I'm a 24 year old mediocre ebook writer. AMA about building a billion dollar company."

I feel like one of the requirements should be to present the thread in an understandable manner. I've noticed some threads recently without any kind of formatting, context, complete sentences and so on which makes it nearly impossible for the AMA to get traction, because everyone's wondering what the F*ck the person is trying to convey.

I died on the second example... That thread was funny.

How about requiring...
The Speedway Pass
and
Read the book
badges?
but then what happens when there's a guest invited to the forum for the sole purpose of doing an AMA

There's normally more than one way to be right.

Maybe the submitter could state their intentions with their qualifications and if they get x number of likes (votes) they do the AMA?

A lot of threads are mistagged "AMA" by the poster, so they aren't AMA's in the sense we'd like them to be. Ill put together some rules and requirements.

I'm a stay at home dad of 8 kids (soon 9). Ask me anything, anything at all.

I have changed more than 25,000 diapers in the past 10 years. No joke. I have even changed a shit diaper in 6 seconds. You think I'm lying? It's all about preparation.
