Ok, so recently I have been seeing many posts that are titled Ask me anything(AMA)! Personally, I think that these posts are very unnecessary considering that most of them say "Please no minecraft questions".
I believe these posts belong on a different website and serve no purpose to the minecraft community, and should be stopped before the entire forums are filled with them. So I think that there should be a rule that states that posts that don't have anything to do with minecraft will be taken down or locked.
So please moderators consider that this is a minecraft site, and that this is an issue with the forums. Not just because this is very unnecessary, but because these posts have nothing to do with minecraft.
Thank you for your time. -lkw2000

What is the point of this Thread? At the end of the day, there will still be AMA and AMAA threads, so there is no point to this thread.
Well if you bothered to read the rest of the posts you would see that hopefully the staff will make people do that crap in the Forum Games area.
Really guys?
Really?
I left at 12pm to go eat lunch, then I went sailing with my stepdad and then ate dinner, and then when i got home i went and pooped, and now it's 8:34pm and you guys are STILL talking about this!
STAHP

I agree with those that say to ignore it. However...
People need to put new spins on their AMAAs. Each and every one of them needs to be unique, not just by the questions asked and how they're answered.
That's just my opinion, and I don't think that this change is vital, but I think it would help.

Me and a few other staff members have actually contemplated moving them to the forum games area so they don't clog the latest 20 posts. This is still being talked about off and on however.
This is a Minecraft site, so people are not allowed to post things that do not relate to Minecraft.
Unless they are in the forum called "General Discussion" where people are allowed to post things that are non-Minecraft. Just ignore these threads, they don't hurt you. MinecraftForum has some forums for people to talk about stuff that is non-minecraft related, and so do some other sites. (Minecraft sites or not)
AMA threads may be useless, but so are some other threads, and so your argument is invalid.

Why don't you just make people post AMA threads under the Forum Games area?
There is no rule against them being in General Discussion.
Then can it be stopped from showing up in the Last 20 posts box? It's mindless clatter that pushes down other things that people would rather see.
I don't control the Last 20 Posts box.

I think they need to make a seperate forum for that stupidity if they are going to allow it. I hate seeing 5 AMA posts in a row in the forum box in the right corner. That shit is annoying.
(Hi, I'm new to this thread. Please excuse me just barging in here with my little old opinion. Just gonna throw it out there, have fun.)
I agree with the about 5 other people saying "Just ignore it!" If you just ignored it, you wouldn't be having a problem. You're creating the problem yourself by reading them or paying attention to them.

^^ Again I agree.
see i have nothing against AMA threads but i see what you mean...they do seem to be taking over the "last 20 posts" and the "recent threads" section...meh i just ignore them...
It says that the page is missing...

"They serve no purpose and are Useless"......??? Yeah I like that, people have to have some sort of socialization in something non-minecraft related, what do you expect us to talk about, What ores we found today?
I completely agree. General discussion isn't going anywhere.
lkw2000Charlizardlkw2000So I think that there should be a rule that states that posts that don't have anything to do with minecraft will be taken down or locked.
This is a horrible idea. I don't think we'll just remove the entire everything else section from the site.
If you don't like it, ignore it. I have to do it with a lot of things on this site.
that was just an idea, i'm just saying that this is a minecraft site, not a place where you should discuss relationships(these are in the forums also) or AMA . And anything else non minecraft.
It's still a terrible idea. It's a chat website, if it was just minecraft then people wouldn't post as much, and people wouldn't come on so much too. Notice how the 'last 20 posts section' is usually filled up with non - minecraft related stuff.
Nothing is going to happen to AMA threads - this coming from someone who utterly utterly hates 'ask me anefing lolz' threads.
Also, I can't help but notice how this thread has turned into 'lets post the most gifs, lol' which, while I'm sure is wonderfully fun, happens to be disgustingly off-topic and thus will cease.
Moved from Discussion to General Discussion.. because Discussion is for Minecraft.
oh how the tables have turned

You are some what confusing to me. . .
Astrian, I don't understand the GIF's you put up. xD
I agree that there should be a seperate forum thread only for them.
That way they stay out of normal places, and go into there own section where people WANT to see them.

Sorry to say but, thats why there is a Forum Thread called "General Discussion." Not everything has to be about Minecraft. Thats kinda just how things roll. And AMA Threads are fun! :3

The same could be said about a lot of things and people in this world, but we can't just get rid of them. Furthermore I feel the need to point out further that these "AMAs" are posted in General Discussion which description clearly says
"Anything that isn't Minecraft-related or doesn't go anywhere above goes here. "
Soooo shut up :/
P.S. nobody said you have to click on them, just ignore them if you hate them so much
So what's your favorite color?
I never ever even VIEW such topics
Can't you guys just ignore them? What is your problem?
^^^^^^ iChococat aproves.
^^^^ Rusty Also Approves
^^^^^^^^^Mememe41 also approves
Yay i got approved xD
Steve Jobs is here to say:


I do agree, they are getting over populated. (It's like how bad "who's my twin" is/was on chicken smoothie, twins- who's my twins every where)
Any how, I do agree with most of these people; "people should be able to post what they want, such as AMA." But about that, every page I go on the forum updates are 90% 'AMA', if not 95%. Yeah cool i asked you some thing you answered we're spamming the same damned questions and topics as every one else lets not forget we want to make buddies who know/play minecraft, so at the least we could find out your favorite mob? But as always "well this that and these also this stupid offensive word" is the common reply when bringing up some thing over used/done and popular.
So lets deal with these spam topics that is turning the forums into a pure 'AMA' and have these minecraft things on the side lines for a little while, if it gets worse cause a uproar; if it stays steady bring up time to time; if it clears up, well just shut up. Sadly these started recently...expect these to last atleast a month or two.

why does it matter? if people want to have people ask them questions then why the hell not. and the thing about things not about minecraft being taken down or locked. thats were the General Discussion comes in. things in there dont have to be about minecraft. so basically, your argument is invalid =|
But if you notice, a lot of the posts now are about relationships and AMAs. It's just getting to the point where to some people, its just annoying.
no. i dont notice. every ama i have seen are just people asking other people to ask them questions. 

moderators consider that this is a minecraft site,
True, but that is why we have a nice little Sub-Forum called "General Discussion"
Anything that isn't Minecraft-related or doesn't go anywhere above goes here
Sorry, but I have to say this:

They should be AMAAM (Ask me anything about Minecraft) threads, don't you think?
I'm giving you an Internet.

I agree, i wouldn't have a problem with that because it is actually about minecraft then. Thank you for understanding.
