Question

Idea suggestion: @Preetha

Answer 1

~ 50 OwlBucks reward that comes with the unlocking of a Purple (3000 smartcent) title.
I am suggesting 50 OwlBucks because that is the price of the Recommendation or Volunteer. This way, for all the user's hard work and efforts they can be rewarded in this reasonable manner :-)

~ second idea... Un-Timed Bump for 5 OwlBucks, for when someone who has a long wait time and does not want to wait for the next bump. Each time a user would want to skip bump their question, it would cost them 5 OwlBucks. OR Alternatively, 5 OwlBucks can shave 10 minutes off of a waiting bump (or a different amount of time or even a proportion of the time like cutting the time in half each paid bump)...
In this age of immediate gratification, and for this seemingly lesser cost, many more people will be willing to spend their money on *this* rather than the QH system tbh :P

Answer 2

Ilike this :-)

Answer 3

Answer 4

IT will benifit OS and the users

Answer 5

Cool ideas! I like the 50 OwlBuck reward one very much. :D

Answer 6

I agree, it will give more incentive to buy OwlBucks :)

Answer 7

I agree with the first one.

However the second one is useless. Most users will close their question and ask it again.

Answer 8

Unless you are making a record to have an active question open for a really long time. ;)

Answer 9

I like. :)

Answer 10

well, the majority of os doesn't have an open question for long unless they're helpers.

Answer 11

Exactly.

Answer 12

how about 10 OB for a blue title?

Answer 13

^

Answer 14

And medal spammers should not be awarded OB.

Answer 15

I have seen people give themselves more than 500 medals.

Answer 16

that can be debatable and discussed over @acxbox22 :)
I was suggesting the purple first because not many people get those (less of a money loss on openstudy) and those who do get such a title should be automatically eligible for a pretty certificate ^_^

Answer 17

Every time someone unlocks a purple or blue title a notification should go in a separate inbox for a mod to check.

Answer 18

1000 Owlbucks to never have a timed bump again!

Answer 19

How about people getting over 3000 medals? Or 6000 medals? Some people get medals in all sorts of sections.

Answer 20

I thought it would be easier coding and achieving-wise to link it to the unlocking of a title

Answer 21

The titles only show how good a person is in that section. It's kind of limited when compared to the persons overall performance.

Answer 22

oh right...
well normally if one is to get to the 3000 range it is due to at least one main subject ^_^"

Answer 23

So, are you saying that I can make enough alts, medal spam myself and get myself to have 3000 medals and I can get free owlbucks. Sweet! I should start right now!

Answer 24

What about the people that don't do it the "normal" way? @sleepyhead314

Answer 25

And then get another account to have 3000 medals, another extra 50 owlbucks. c:

Answer 26

you might break your mouse @richardsimson69

Answer 27

I'll get a few more mice from my rat farm c:

Answer 28

@richardsimson69 I have yet to see someone do that xD
the most I've seen someone get is the 500 title by medal spams
3000? We peeps around these parts keep an eye on upcoming purple titlers ;)

Answer 29

I'm just saying, not like I have time to medal spam myself anyways. The most I've seen is a user who medal spammed themselves with 1,500 medals...

Answer 32

Answer 33

haha, felt like bein spainsh

Answer 34

I think the first suggestion could be really useful. It will motivate OpenStudy helpers to answer more questions so they can get the purple title! Great suggestion :)

Answer 35

Answer 42

Answer 44

Oops! Sorry, I didn't see yours :) @acxbox22 And it doesn't have to be 25.

Answer 45
