almost seems like bribery to answer questions.. with medals and a fan everytime xD

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

Almost everyone does it, so I just get used to it. But you're actually supposed to give a medal to the person who helped you.

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Yep, it just sounds like bribery. Well, most users help only to get medals, which is not the point of this site...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but then again.. theres no point on wanting medals anyways.. all youre doing is either giving or recieving answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Yup.

Actually i feel like its a way to get people to come to the question since all people seem to care about are medals and fans...

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

^ Eggzactly.

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Here's the best way to do it. For making people look at your question: "Easiest question ever!!!" That'll help loads!

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Yes @YanaSidlinskiy that seems as another way to attract people to your post, i would rather people say easy question than, will medal/fan for you to answer my question, Because to me it seems like a medal party.

If you get high SS, you get recognized :) Who doesn't want recognition! For higher SS, you need medals :) Helping others is in a way a Gold medal to yourself, but it won't hurt to get extra medals from the one who you helped for a higher SS. I personally have no problem with such a sweet bribery ^_^

It's not medal party. Really, it's just trying to get people to help you. Medal parties are not what some people may think. Medal Parties are like "WHO WANTS A MEDAL", that's what I call medal parties. You may or may not agree with me. Same here. I don't really care about what they say. As long as it's a Math question then that'll do:)
