Question

Anyone simply posting shout outs will be suspended under suspicion of cheating.

Answer 1

What does it mean?

Answer 2

anyone go to _______ taking ______ of course

Answer 3

lol, one is sitting at the top of the screen.

Answer 4

I think he means shoutout like "Is anyone in connections academy" Things like that.

Answer 5

o.O just a question posted :

Is anyone taking Algebra II on FLVS

Answer 6

OKay

Answer 7

some people genuinely don't cheat that way... but okay

Answer 8

then some people need to phrase their question appropriately

Answer 9

Anyone taking Algbra2 at Connections? is not a question.

Anyone taken the finals yet, i need the answers ... is not a question

etc etc etc

Answer 10

I need help, can some help me? is a vague question ... but permissable until they actually start saying: can you message me if you go to this and that ..

Answer 11

its not allowed because it is not specific. there are way to many posts like this that are simply asking for answers instead of using the site to study with.

Answer 12

@amistre64 I recently posted a question regarding math books, I apologise for that .
I would not do that again :)

Answer 13

Well, @No.name , I guess, you can ask such questions in Academic Advice, will it be fine there @amistre64 ?

Answer 14

He actually said No to see above

Answer 15

Asking for a math book is not the same as: Do you go to my specific school?

Just make sure your posts are not vague and can be interpreted as an attempt to find people to swap answers with.

Answer 16

Okay....

Answer 17

Oh, fine.

Answer 18

shout outs MEANS ?

Answer 19

the content of this posts defines it already. and @goformit100 , trying to report abuse this post as not pertaining to math is absurd :/ It is directly related to what goes on here.

Answer 20

Ya I understand it sir but RULES ARE FOR ALL. Ok, but if I am wrong I am really Sorry.

Answer 21

you are in the wrong on this. This is simply a way to get the message across to the most users on the site without having to go one by one and warn them all. And yes, it pertains to the Math group. if you dont think I know what the rules are after moderating for what .. the past 4 year? -- feel free to enlighten me.

Answer 22

or report it :) its all the same really

Answer 23

Sir When ever I post such types of revelent topics related to Mathematics either than Math Question, I simply face the thing that is closing of that question by a MOD or Get Suspension. and is told that you post irrilavent question in wrong section.

Answer 24

I havent seen your posts, at least not recently so i wouldnt know how relevant they are. But im simply a little edgy perhaps from having to see all stuff that the mods have to deal with being so blatantly posted without a care in the world. If memory serves, your contributions to the site over the years have been to make it a suitable place to learn and study ... which is commendable. So i have no ill feelings in this regard :)

Answer 25

Can't this question be posted on OpenStudy Feedback ?

Answer 26

it should be ... just havent gotten around to it. I made a copy of it for the english subject.

Answer 27

feel free to make a feedback post and link it to this one.

Answer 28

ive got to tend to the kids, so good luck yall

Answer 29

If it should be than why is it still open Sir.

Answer 30

Will I be forgive for the same mistake which is being done here ?

Answer 31

This is posted in maths section probably because it is the most active section and this is very imprtant.

Answer 32

Most people are not active in OS feedback

Answer 33

Yes that means As it's an active section, I MUST also do my 'Feedback' postings here and here only..

As by doing so I can reach much people in little time

Answer 34

Unless it is very important. But first become a moderator to that.
And this isn't a feedback , this is a "alert" post given by a moderator.
A moderator has the power not OS users like you and me and others
I hope you get my point. Don't argue for the sake of arguing.

Answer 35

But CoC :: http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct <--- Made by ma'am Preetha is applicable to all. I think it must be applicable to all.

Answer 36

This isn't a feedback

Answer 37

At last I think it concludes that POWERFUL People can do anything.

Let's wait for a better CoC which will atleast be applicable to those POWERFUL people....... then I must wait then for get to power of MOD here or even more here.

Sorry for all My argues. @Preetha please excuse me.

Answer 38

Yes , It applies to everyone as far as I think.

Answer 39

Follow : http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct

Answer 40

@goformit100 this was just a reiteration of the rules as plenty of people don't often read the small print. Such reiterations are basically a giant warning to everyone, so there would be less "why did you ban be without warning" complaints
http://openstudy.com/terms-and-conditions
"In most cases, asking for help on an exam or test, or helping someone during their test or exam, will be considered cheating by the institution or by OpenStudy. OpenStudy reserves the right to remove such content and/or suspend, ban or otherwise remove Users from the system who are suspected of cheating."
That is the rule that is being reiterated, there is nothing wrong with this question post.

Answer 41

wat is with u people @amistre64

Answer 42

youll have to be more specific :/

Answer 43

@amistre64 people cn post whatever they want as long as they don't harass curse threaten or anything like that

Answer 44

o_o
even though its online help site,i think it is fine if one is asking question related to what they were taught
wouldnt be fine if they are publishing their site

Answer 45

Is anyone taking precalculus B in connections academy? I need test answers!

(graduated 2 Fridays ago)

Answer 46

their what-so-ever thing
academy for instance

Answer 47

@amistre64 everyone knows that's

Answer 48

this is an academic website, and we have rules against people abusing the site ... if you dont like it, then go someplace else.

Answer 49

that's because the website is afraid to be abused :P

Answer 50

no one is abusing it

Answer 51

ikatouni, thats simply a lie and you know it

Answer 52

What if the website abuses someone ?

Answer 53

I am very sure that Amistre hasn't posted this unilaterally. It is supposed to be a general consensus among the moderators. This wasn't a rule earlier, but it is one now. The rest is your choice.

Answer 54

websites cannot be abusive, they are not a real entity.

Answer 55

Haha Solomon

Answer 56

Well, the mods that represent it. Not you armistre, don't worry.

Answer 57

thomasters tattoos can be rather obtrusive lol

Answer 58

as a matter fact there is nothing rong with doing wat u said

Answer 59

This is a rule , if you all want to follow then its okay otherwise get lost and banned from this site. Question is over no point in continuing over a trivial matter

Answer 60

ikatouni, your repetition of utter nonsense does not some how make it turn into a glorious truth.

Answer 61

@ikatouni don't get your self banned. That would be sad : (

Answer 62

Should I start this \(\normalsize\color{black}{ \tt huge }\) topic about how this website is abusive ??

Answer 63

ikatouni is fine :) at the moment at least. they arent beligerent

Answer 64

the only time the would ban me is if they now im right now don't lie moderaters and ambassodors

Answer 65

lol @amistre64

Answer 66

Well let me give my opinion as well :

In a classroom, you are allowed to ask the things which amistre has asked not to do but only when the teacher is not teaching in the class. There is always a correct place and time for doing things. It applies to everyone, everywhere and every time.

Answer 67

I agree with @amistre64, we should honour and follow the suggestions given by moderators. We should infact think about them before believing on them blindly, but, we must try to understand the reasons (which I am sure many of us do understand). :)

Answer 68

@vishweshshrimali5 Correct! If a teacher makes a remark on how you're not well-groomed, or you arrived late to school, you don't tell him that the remarks are "off-topic" and that the teacher would be "reported to the principal." lol

Answer 69

So,

END OF STORY

Answer 70

@amistre64 if u get suspended ur not allowed bak on again

Answer 71

the first 11 posts on here make the point ... the rest of this is trivial :)

Answer 72

LOL ! If I would have been in school, I would have surely tried to give it a try with my favourite and lenient teacher. :)

@No.name Not so sure.

Answer 73

Well jokes aside guys. I think we should be very careful while posting our questions as I will be. Thanks for warning @amistre64

Answer 74

The drift-velocity of this thread is very high...

Answer 75

had to go back a few hours, but here is a recent example of a shout out ...

http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/538acfcee4b02fec90351eff

Answer 76

if you read the code of conduct, you will see that your statement is utterly absurd :/ people do not get suspended over 'anything'.

Answer 77

I got suspended because of posting the work with steps, thorough explanation and answer.

Answer 78

again, the more times a position is repeated does not make it more true ....

Answer 79

yoo lmao im done

Answer 80

Majority may always win but its not always correct.

Answer 81

Solomon has a habit of simply doing all the work for someone :)

Answer 82

Sorry for this joke @SolomonZelman Your hard work really paid.

Answer 83

Guys, let us *NOT* question the work of moderators. Whatever the decision they take is right, and if you think that you were suspended without any reason, you can mail to contact@openstudy.com / abuse@openstudy.com .

Answer 84

Is it really the best place to do so ?

Answer 85

The rules are rules. there is nothing about posting questions "do you need help..." posting work with an answer, saying that the user is not very very smart... and so there are a lot of other things that mods claim to be the rule, but from the os code it is not so....

Answer 86

Then you would simply be banned

Answer 87

It was just an advice. Rest is your choice.

Answer 88

well I don't have much experience on this site. So, I think I would best be off. Bye and have a nice time. :)

Answer 89

Just saying, but... when you joined this site, you agreed with several terms and conditions. This includes that the site rules apply on everyone and they have been carefully thought out by the owners.

Answer 90

no not simpily be banned dis is wingspantatership and I simpily will no tolerate this in my kingdom

Answer 91

dont delete my comments cause you're a sensitive little fool, lighten up.

Answer 92

your conduct on this site is belligerent. Do not call people 'fools'. Spam will be deleted as needed regardless of what you think of it ....

Answer 93

how long do you gget suspended

Answer 94

59 minutes, 59 seconds.

that's is the time that I got suspended for.

Answer 95

lol y would u get suspended @SolomonZelman ur like the best lol

Answer 96

Posting the work with steps thorough explanation and answers, is the reason.
