Help for /ask
Usage: /ask [discussion] [question|off]
The focus of moderated discussions is asking and answering questions. The user's
interface to this process is the /ask command. To check for an existing question
use the "/ask discussion" form of the command. This will tell you if you have a
question and, if so, what it is.
To add or change a question to a discussion use the longer form of /ask, for
example, "/ask shelley What role did William's early death play?" would add the
question "What role did William's early death play?" in discussion -shelley.
Once your question is selected for answering, you and all other members of the
discussion, will be notified. During the answering time you will be allowed to
send messages to the discussion. HOWEVER, it is recommended that you use this
ability only when necessary to clarify your question or answer requests from the
speakers.
To remove your question from the queue, use "/ask off" or "/ask discussion off".
