Yes, I understand what you mean. I have been asked to answer question on How to fix rivets to a baby's pram The system needs filtering better. I have just looked at my emails and there is 15 questions from Ask an expert.

Ratedpeople need to vet the questions, half of them are actually misguided job postings. Some people must think they have posted a job when they haven't. So then they get annoyed with the site when no-one contacts them. Plus people ask questions in this section, that are intended for ratedpeople staff. Also the city/county the question is coming from would be appreciated. I ignore people asking for prices, that is a mickey take. As for the silly questions, I have a look for a laugh. Is there a way to filter out general DIY questions? I only want to answer sensible questions about my trade?
