I’m mainly a lurker here and get the idea that I know few people on here, virtually. One of the other forums I use, the one that led me here, uses hotseats, where users are nominated or volunteer themselves (usually volunteers) to take a hot seat, where everyone else is allowed to ask them any question, subject to the mods’ rules. They have to answer truthfully, but also with no comeback, not on thread anyway.

Here is one which ran on the other site.

By the way, I am a sensitive soul, so if you don’t like the idea, it’s enough to say that, personal attacks or unhelpful criticism will only upset me.

personal attacks

what sort of idiot makes this sort of suggestion?

unhelpful criticism

the people from here I think should be put in the hotseat aren’t real anyway. What sort of egomaniac is going to put themselves up for this (other than the ‘personas’ previously mentioned)

hth.

😉

Where is my shoe polish?

What sort of egomaniac is going to put themselves up for this

I don’t know. What sorts are there?

Sounds like it would be a bit like Twitter – utterly pointless unless the person is famous or is a leader in some interesting field, and even then barely justifying itself.
