Suggestion: OpenStudy Awards!

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

I made the same suggestion :D Read thru my post to see there opinions @vera_ewing http://openstudy.com/users/jagr2713#/updates/5521e9e1e4b0715801033cc6

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

We have that already.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Who would chose? How many awards? And there would be arugments between users if they didn't get selected. Could be bias in this too

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

When your subscores increase you get new "titles" or names beside you.

Nnesha (nnesha):

.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

IMO, No. There are few user who would cause hell if only ambassadors and moderators chose. And if moderators and ambassadors got this award, thhe would say because ambis and mods are giving each other the awards. And no one wants to just argue pointlessly over that with them tbh. >.>

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

Here is what @sammixboo said about this when i asked @vera_ewing ~Competition, and (not stating names) making sites about chosen ambis, and older, and everything bad that they did, etc. Just people fighting over why they didn't become an Ambi and that this Cohort wasn't fair because blah blah annoying things blah blah People were like scratching and freaking out at the new Ambis. Oh trust me. It may seem stupid to fight over it, but people will. Anything like this will turn straight to insanity and go downhill

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Then the most popular person will win if it goes by votes.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Where? How? People could spam votes for themselves or their friends. If you per ip, there are siblings who share ips. There is also school where you can go to the computer lab and just jump around from computer to computer voting for themselves or stuff. And friends voting for friends without evaluating who actually deserves it, etc. People would vote for the user who they see on the most since they don't know anyone.

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

like sammi said above @vera_ewing Just people fighting over why they didn't become an Ambi and that this Cohort wasn't fair because blah blah annoying things blah blah

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

@vera_ewing There are way too many mature users.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

You can't get them all.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Well moderators and ambis are also active and do contribute to the site a lot more than other users.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Especially moderators.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

They all EQUALLY deserve it.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

If someone gets first place all the time that means he worked for it. You can't give the first place award to the second best person just because he won a lot less awards that the first best person.

jagr2713 (jagr2713):

^^

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

We deserve it based on how much we work.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Oh wow. It feels like we are having a conversation with ourselves.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

ikr lol .-.

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

New users may feel discouraged if this feature was implemented...

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Wouldn't they already get discouraged with their 0 SS? @EclipsedStar

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @confluxepic Wouldn't they already get discouraged with their 0 SS? @EclipsedStar \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) What? Lol. Put one comment on any post and you'll get 3ss.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

To be honest when I was a new user I never wanted to be a 99er.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Because I only wanted to have 100 SS.

eclipsedstar (eclipsedstar):

Repeating the same thing, but ok. Lol.
