Answer 3

You need a SmartScore of at least 80, and a title in a subject - if there are titles for the subject.

Answer 4

Yes, you can make money

Answer 5

It's asking to request access.. @Preetha

Answer 6

Ikr

Answer 7

Awwww I'm 79 :(

Answer 8

I strongly disagree with this idea of a list of first helpers.
1) Disagreements between the users.
2) I've seen people with low scores help by far better than people with high scores.
(so, the score doesn't really determine "helpfulness" )

Also,
~ titles for first helpers?
~ Money? no, I disagree. this is a site where people voluntarily help, not making money.

Answer 9

@SolomonZelman i'm agree with you
a lot of users have ss below 80 but they are really good in study and they also have positive attitude

Answer 10

@SolomonZelman is wise.

Answer 11

Hi Solomon. Yes, this is a site where people help for free. And it will always be that way. But like many free sites, it can be a place where you can get premium services that are not free

Answer 12

I only agree with #2.

Answer 13

Is there a certain age you have to be for this?

Answer 14

Yes, SS 80 is a guideline.

Answer 15

Hmmmm. Age is fine but you need to have an ID!

Answer 16

ID is no problem. Just need to go up 1 more SS.......

Answer 17

Lol

Answer 18

but many users are not competent to help, even if they have a score of 99.

Answer 19

People already get a lot of help fast, so this Idea won't attract that many users..

Answer 20

You have no right to say who is smarter than us just because someone's SS is higher. That just means that they have been on here longer.

Answer 21

well, even if you make this thing (which I consider to be an unwise decision for a number of reasons given by me as well as some other users, but this is only my opinion about it), then please at least have a general knowledge entry test for this qualification.

Answer 22

what!!!!!!!!!!!! entry test ????about what ???

Answer 23

@SolomonZelman There will be training..

Answer 24

entry test, testing user's knowledge. Because a smart score of 99, can be just acquired with time, and not necessarily as much with a knowledge.

idk, you do what you do.... but I think this is an over-action.

Answer 25

i agree with an entry test. i think it should have all subjects so you, as well as preetha, can know what your strengths are and can place you accordingly

Answer 26

^^^^^^^

Answer 27

I believe that's what they have planned. @SolomonZelman @AriPotta

Answer 28

ah ok :)

Answer 29

I mean we already got a variety of titles, in addition to smart score (separations).
Adding a qualification for a "first helper"? don't you think it's too much?

Answer 30

I would first deal with glitches that IS has, then think of adding features and other qualifications.

Answer 31

** OS, not IS.
