You do not have to wait, and you do not need to get permission in order to answer the interview questions.. and post your post in this thread.

Nobody reads on this forum anymore. I swear, it must have something to do with so much screen time shortening our attention spans, because I've found myself to be a victim of it as well (though I try to read as much of a thread as I can before I respond).

About the quality of responses being skunky: maybe there ought to be some threshold respondents have to meet in order to have their answers posted here. That would obviously be OP's call, but I know damn well that if the answers have to be written in English a huge number of people here won't be able to get their points across coherently. No fault of their own, but I don't think anyone wants to spend valuable brain time trying to decipher a bunch of nonsense. I sure as hell don't.

But, I think this should also be the OP's job. Most interviews are posted by the user themselves, when it should be the OP. He is the one who should receive the answers to the questions, compile the answers and post them. And in this process, if any additional information was needed about an answer, the user would be asked.

Another thing I've noticed is that the questions are always the same, or almost always the same. When the questions could be somewhat adapted to each user. Maybe by doing a small questionnaire beforehand, and then preparing the questions.

Otherwise, I think the OP continues to do a good job.

I had also suggested some contemporary themes (or issues that are currently in the news), and so we likely know that some of the themes are no longer as relevant and/or there is also not really that much importance that the same kinds of themes are asked to later responders as compared with earlier responders..

so in that sense, consistency of the questions might not matter very much with the "of the day" themes, even though there could be some value in terms of some of the basic questions being similar since it might well not matter very much to change the wording of some of the basic questions like, when did you first get into BTC (and how - who, what, where, when) and when did you first hear about the forum and how.. and some of the other questions may or may not vary over time, so some of the extent to variance may well have to do with OPs preferences (or changes in his own ideas) or accounting for some of the changes in what members of the forum are talking about.. so for example, there had been times when the terms Defi and ICO might be used more but then more contemporary themes might be ordinals/inscriptions or talking sidechains, or lightning network and/or stable coins, and sure some of the themes overlap and the concept of Defi or ICO might still cover the concept, but with the passage of time there likely are better ways to phrase questions...

and so for example, this is not my thread, so even if I make some suggestions, I am not even going to try to take it over or try to direct it, because I already know that OP is way more receptive to some shitcoin themes than I am, and he is surely free to emphasize the points that tie to his own interests or what he might believe is of interest to forum members or some combination of these... and yeah, I like the idea of pre-question questionnaires and/or even follow-ups, even though some forum members had been interacting with some of the responders in order to attempt to get clarification on some of the responses that the responders. and sure even though follow up from questions does seem to be more of a job of the OP, there also does not seem to be anything wrong with taking advantage of the crowd-sourcing nature of the forum.. even though other members might not necessarily be as good at following up or even be incentivized to necessarily explore topics in a way that might also be a bit of the responsibility of OP (but yeah, who exactly is responsible for the questions and/or the follow-up could be a bit of a loose parameter in a thread like this that is on a forum rather than a more traditional kind of an interview structure that might be more purposefully controlled by one interviewer).
