I wonder if its possble to program a direct call to any moderator who is on-line when anyone gives a direct answer. I see a lot of that later - there's an incentive to do this because a medal is usually given for the answer.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

* lately

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Programing direct calls to moderators is very simple. All you have to do is report someone.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

Yes but not everyone does. I am talking about it being automated.

OpenStudy (decarr432):

we would have random reports from an automated system

OpenStudy (welshfella):

i guess that would be difficult to code into the program - how would the program detect a direct answer? Not sure - I guess people would found a way around it and there might be a lot of false alarm.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

@Decarr432 - yes

OpenStudy (♪chibiterasu):

IT's not gonna happen. Just report it. There's no way to fairly detect a real DA and not only would it be super annoying for the moderators, but it would be redundant when you can just report. It's too complicated and I don't think it's even possible, nor would they ever implement it. If they can't even implement an edit button I don't see them ever doing this.

OpenStudy (decarr432):

there would be problems but we could program something that looks through reports and files them on key words DA Spam Tests

OpenStudy (♪chibiterasu):

Also a system like that would have too many flaws and it's just not worth the effort. Reporting is enough.

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Yes ma'am

OpenStudy (welshfella):

You are probably right though I dont think reporting is enough, but its the best we've got.
