More simply, we can also ask for what we want. We could say, for example, “This form is about ideas you’d be reluctant to share. If you have a concern about a specific person, please talk to Julia Wise rather than posting about it here.”
Or we could ask, “What’s the title of an EA Forum post that you’d like to see written, but that you think would receive negative karma overall?”
I know it sounds trite, but the question you ask really affects the answers you receive.
