Not be rude, but "wtf"... is not a nice way to get help. It's not his/her job to answer 7 questions for you even if you answered 100 of questions after all it's your homework/ test, not his/her. At least be nice, and appreciate his/her help and give him/her a medal, (which I will do right now).

Btw Openstudy is about helping and letting others understand how to do something not about giving answers.

& this is the wrong section; you should post it in history.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, that's why I stopped responding. But you put more effort than I did into explaining  that.

timaashorty · Answer

You seem nice enough to help and give answers, but don't give straight answers, it could get you in trouble.

anonymous · Answer

I don't usually, I just really didn't know how to explain why it was the right answer. I'm more used to doing math questions and helping people with those.
