Open it up to everyone and treat everyone like equals or get rid of it. Let people be responsible for their own actions instead of holding their hand and telling them how to behave.

M, We
aren't equals. There are Freshman in High School to Career Engineers. You can't equate them on some aspects. Also, it's obvious that
some people need their hand held. Which is why many threads get thrown off topic.
I think that anyone whom thinks they
deserve to be allowed to answer questions in a Q & A forum should have some form of a testing procedure.
One of the most harmful parts of it was that it was implemented during season and "beta tested" with real necessary questions. Perhaps the current moderators (or sections of moderators) from the Q & A forum could get together and make up a quiz for potentials to take.
Sort of like 'testing out' of classes in college.. you 'test out' of normal status so you can moderate Q & A.
I feel this would generate a way for qualified (based on knowledge of questioned material) persons to assist those in need. Of course, there would have to be reprocussions for intentionally (or unintentionally but very..) misguiding answers or criticism.
