How would you make ATA better and suggestions about it?
What if users sent there questions or concerns in a head of time. The admins could discuss the most important ones. The other one's that don't get answered during the ATA could get answered in some sort of forum or a blog.
Right when I read the OP this was exactly my thought as well.
Seems like the best solution.
Maybe there could be an official thread where users can post their questions every week ahead of time and have that thread have a feature for users to vote on every post in there so the most popular questions get to the top or something.
I don't like the idea of sending the questions in and then relying on the admin to make their pick, would be nice if the community had influence over that in some way.
No voting system. That way, only popular users will get their questions seen to. I'd like to think we're better than that, but I know the prominent users will get theirs upvoted, just because they're more recognisable.
Where, users who are unknown will be less likely to get votes, even if their question is a legitimate one.
I'd much prefer each person get one post in that thread, one post to make their statement/question. Has to be a question, query or statement or it becomes reportable/spam to be removed perhaps?
Heading/title line to give the gist of what the query is about would help admin skim better, and find out what people want to know.
That way, there's less to skim, and good questions get fair chance.
