Question

Question to female open study users

Answer 1

How often do you get messages from guys trying to either start a conversation with you or to compliment you saying "text me at..." etc?

Answer 2

tbh if you ask me everyday. Its literally an everyday thing that's why there are these 2 magic buttons :O did you know that??? :O The BLOCK and REPORT buttons are our life savers :)

Answer 3

This is an educational site (OpenStudy not OpenDating) so contacting people exterally from the site technically isn't supposed to even be done here. :)

Answer 4

@EclipsedStar they are talking about ON OpenStudy

Answer 5

I have it quite happen quite often, so I tell them not to, and if they persist, I use the 2 magical buttons you mentioned pooja, block and report.

Answer 6

Gotcha. xD
Well I got them daily. Until I decided to change my message settings. :)

Answer 7

That is another good way of avoiding them :)
But I don't change my message settings as I sometimes get new users asking me questions, or just any user asking me a question.

Answer 8

^

Answer 9

I change my message settings from time to time but I get the wrong messages at the wrong times for some reason...as if people check someone's settings ;-;

Answer 10

That's annoying. Well, just block them if it's the same person, and report them, as they are breaking the rules (and it's really annoying)

Answer 11

simple
DON'T reply! :-)

Answer 12

BLOCK! REPORT! IGNORE!

Answer 13

better to remain silent :-)

Answer 14

True.
But if it persists, block them.

Answer 15

Haha, well as a guy, I apologize to all of you! My friend recently made a open study account and she gets messages from guys ALL day hitting on her. Starting a conversation is fine I guess, but I really don't like it when strangers hit on my friend like that. I just wanted her to know that she isn't the only one.

Answer 16

Starting a friendly conversation is fine, but starting a conversation to flirt...
That's not what OS is for.

Answer 17

I agree. When I said I apologize I don't say it because I flirt with random girls on this site, I apologize on behalf of the guys who aren't like the ones that do that stuff

Answer 18

We all do she needs to ignore it just like the rest of us

Answer 19

Yeah I tell her that too.

Answer 20

Also tell her about the magic of blocking, reporting, and ignoring :P

Answer 21

Haha yeah she knows about it. She told me she had to block 5 guys today because they wouldn't leave her alone after she told them too.

Answer 22

Is anything more happens tell her to contact a mod or ambassador

Answer 23

*IF

Answer 24

Alright, I will tell her to do so.

Answer 25

Shes free to contact me if she wants :)

Answer 26

Alright, thanks! I'll be sure to tell her that now actually.

Answer 27

And really, she can contact me too if she wants, I like making friends through OpenStudy.

Answer 28

Will tell her that too. Like I said earlier, I'm sorry that some of the guys would hit on you all on a site that was made to help people with there studies.
