Question

Why does the OS commercial video show owls giving direct answers? Influencing the public to break the OS CoC and also they took it off but it used to say "wtf"

Answer 1

@just_one_last_goodbye That is why we are looking for someone to make a new one ^-^ if you can make something better do it and send it to preetha if she likes it she'll hopefully put it up :)

Answer 2

I been trying, but I can't pay for a good program to make a decent video at the moment x-x

Answer 3

I would use this program for other things as well ^-^

Answer 4

OMG LOL! That's OS going back on their own rules LAWL! No wonder some schools don't like OS.

Answer 5

I think the point of the commercial was to emphasize the peer study aspect of Openstudy. Did you see how the peers corrected each other in the video towards the end.

Answer 6

But I can see how it can be misinterpreted as giving direct answer.

Answer 7

@perl I actually caught the green bird swear :O!

Answer 8

bad owl! >:(

Answer 9

"Influencing the pubic the break the OS CoC and also they took it off but it used to say "wtf""

Erm, what?

Answer 10

@TheSmartOne OP is NOT making this up. Even I saw this for myself and the split second that bubble came up. It's really fast though, so you have to pause quick. I even attached a picture, so I know it was this bad owl that swore which is against OS CoC. On top of that, if you've watched the whole video, you would see the word "idiota" which is "idiot" in Spanish. So not only is OS being advertised as a direct answer site, it's also promoting name calling. Might as well change the name OpenStudy to OpenAnswersandNameCalling. Seems legit. And the x+y example is ridiculous because x and y are different terms and can't be combinable, so erase the = sign. the end. done. It's finished.

x+y = z doesn't make sense unless you let x =1, y=1, and z = 2
1+1 =2
2=2
