I don't really understand what you mean by "a way to avoid a real discovery". How would this result in avoiding any real discovery? The responses, and all evidence, will be publicly available.
He doesn't have to answer any questions he doesn't want to. Legal will ask him to not answer 80%++ of the things you'll send his way.
In a real discovery, you
have to answer questions that are asked.
To me, this sounds like a way to save on legal fees, have the community send you everything they think they may have.
uhh, dude, he has been given numerous platforms to do this... reddit ama, miami in person, even on his own forum with the "30 days of questions/answers" bullshit. why do you think he all of a sudden changed his tune?
don't you find it a little odd that the guy can't answer ANYTHING that isn't pre-screened? this is just another shining example. he does not do/answer anything that he cannot control.
True, he already has 28 more questions to answer, let him start there.
Hrmm, I see your point. Like I said, I don't really expect much out of this, but I was surprised when he actually agreed to my request for proof that the allegations against him were not true. Maybe I should just throw some of the questions that I personally have + the remaining AMA questions at him and see what response that garners.
