There ain't no stopping the trend once it starts. Just wait it out a couple days.

I am pretty sure she's referring to the wave of AMA threads again, prompted by the start/revival of TCG's AMA thread a couple of days ago. XD

That feel when you want to do an AMA but FC is already cluttered as all hell with them.

Half of these people should have the self awareness not to make the one at all since they are not important enough, and the other half less one should learn to wait their turn. It's absolutely ridiculous. I wish the moderators would remove the excess and have some guidance for who can make them.

It wouldn't be so bad if the people doing them have accomplished something worth asking questions about.  Nobody wants to ask 19 yo boring people questions except maybe bored 17 yo.

Well, I think it's okay to make a thread if you are 19 - it may be less interesting from your perspective since you are decades above caring about random 19 year olds' plans, but it's a good way to learn about people in the community and creates a strong foundation of camaraderie in what otherwise might be a very viscous place. The thing is, you need to establish yourself before doing so. I struggle to put a number on that because some posts are more impactful than others, but most people should at least know who you are.

If people don't know who you are and you literally write something like 'ama lol' as your entire post, you are wasting everyone's time. That's why we have ten threads with questions like 'who would you vote for in France's 1967 legislative election' and 'what is your opinion on suburban voting patterns' to people who don't matter at all.

Smilo, you're an icon. One of the few people who warrants an AMA. Don't take that as an invitation to make one right now.

EDIT: In all seriousness, though, I hope to come out with something to do with this pestilence after work.

This forum is like a bunch of sheep. One person starts an "AMA", and before you know the entire board is littered with this.

A lot of recent threads have been mainly uninteresting due to a boring background, no prominent posting, and recency of being here from posters in question. Really only a few have an actual ability to keep a thread interesting.

Maybe people who want to do an AMA can put forward their name, and each week 4 or 5 people would be given the opportunity to post one.   Could be randomly selected, or have a waiting list, or some combination.

That's a very good idea.

agreed

edit-maybe limit it to, say, 2 at a time on the front page?  Minimum, in case an older one got resurrected for whatever reason.  Some kind of "cop" in charge of them so noobs with 700 posts aren't getting in ahead of an old timer (by forum standards).  Maybe the cop even starts each one?
