"External Answers" Suggestion

There should be a spot in the discuss forums under “Interests Beyond Scratch” Called “External Answers”. It would be like the Yahoo! Answers of Scratch. I don't have a Yahoo! account, so I can't ask questions, and sometimes no one else asked that question. This would be very helpful for us Scratchers! Please consider adding it!

Actually, I was talking about stuff that DOESN'T have to do with Scratch.

One used to exist (available here), but it was shut down due to a large amount of “flame wars” and difficulty moderating.

This is suggesting a place where you ask questions, not just talk about anything.

What's an IBSer?
An abbreviation which nobody actually uses that refers to one who mainly uses Scratch to post in the Interests Beyond Scratch sections.

How is 2 IBSers enough? I think there's room for just ONE more. Besides, it would be really helpful.

Scratch shouldn't and isn't used for things like that, especially when there are loads of other dedicated question asking sites.

It's the internet, most questions are covered.

But somewhere like Yahoo! Answers would be much better than Scratch even if it was implemented, as they have different categories and many more question answerers than Scratch would.

Believe me, there are questions I'm still curious about.

There's one I'm thinking of right now and I need help with it.

Why not ask it on a question asking website?

Or you could make a project, or ask it to users, or use show and tell for your project, etc.
