Answer 27

its a way for the site to encourage competition among answerers and viw for position if need be

Answer 28

vie ....

Answer 29

I see. I come not for the medals or recognitions, as much as to help others. I do free tutoring at my college (unpaid by college too), make free videos on my website at http://www.tutorsean.net and host an online community on Facebook under screen name Tutor Sean. I love helping others.

Answer 30

Ive seen you about :) None of us "top" answerers here care much for the medals either. They are not a good indicator of smarts. Neither are the titles or fan counts.

We enjoy helping others just for the sake of math i think

Answer 31

the owners of the site are going to get back with me regarding how to go about you advertising your site on here. They are going to mull it over and see if it is ..... acceptable behaviour i spose

Answer 32

other than that, and not even that really, i got no issue with you helping out :)

Answer 33

Oh well. If they say not to, that is fine. I don't see it as any different than someone advertising Khan Academy or Wolfram Alpha. I don't charge for anything on there. :)

Answer 34

If there is an issue, please EMAIL me at: SeanWalsh1984@gmail.com and let me know. :)

Answer 35

Answer 43

Answer 44

So I wrote to contact@openstudy.com and explained my motives and asked if it is within policies. Because I see people posting other free resource sites all the time. Have you seen my site, it is pretty cool and has a different angle from Khan Academy but similar.

Answer 45

ive never been to Khan, or to yours, i like wolfram tho. ANd Pauls calculus is how i actually came across this place

Answer 46

I came here through Pauls Online Notes too. Just talked to Jon Birdsong at Openstudy and he said it is fine since there are no services being advertised, just free resources. Thanks for bringing this issue to my attention. :)

Answer 47

youre welcome :)
