you could always create one.

True, I could create an "IAMA" community, however I would prefer using this community [assuming it's allowed] because that would mirror the r/askreddit community that most people here are probably familiar with, which is an advantage

I feel like it fits the intent of the community, but yea you'd need a mod to weigh in

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Can they, though?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Then ones of people would join the community and discussion.

Are you a fireman?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Dunno about that, but IANAL.

What is the I in IAMA or is it an l

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I always assumed it was a pun. AMA = Ask Me Anything. IAMA = I Am A

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

You say pun, but do you mean acronym? Although IAmA wouldn't really be an acronym, would it. Hmm...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

It's absolutely an I and not an l.
