Question

I have a couple suggestions that I wished to be added. First, I wish either a reopen option or 2 questions open at a time option, we can balance this, questions that mods closed are permanently closed, also, there is a certain time before you can reopen questions, for example, I am saying you have to wait a day, and after you close it for the second time it is also permanently closed. Sometimes it is useful if we need to reopen like a tutorial or whatever. For the 2 questions open at a time, either this or reopen option is good for me, we can balance this by saying you have to wait like however long before you can post a 2nd question and no more than 50 percent of the words can be the same, prob some code for that. Finally I wish for a username search option, this would make it more user friendly, for example you can search someone’s username and you can view their profile and stuff so if you aren’t their fan or if they haven’t recently answered any questions that you find, you can still view their profile. If you have been blocked by that user, the name no longer shows up when you search it.

Answer 1

probably has been suggested before, and prob won't get added xD

Answer 2

YES! I agree about the having 2 open questions in the same section and about the username search bar! @Jaynator495 make it happen! :D

Answer 7

Answer 8

Answer 9

Your suggestions are nice but not needed.

Re-opening questions:

Pointless. Just make a new post. You can still tag users to closed questions.


Having two questions opened at the same time:

Only useful for in OpenStudy Feedback. If you can open up multiple posts in other subjects, and users are helping you on multiple posts then you won't be able to cooperate with each helper properly. I have helped many people who were splitting their concentration on two posts (sometimes in the same subject, with one opened and the other closed) and it does not work. Now, you can open up multiple posts in a subject if you use the iOS app.


Seaching for usernames:

@Jaynator495 has made an extension and that extension gives you the ability to search for users without you having to be their fan.
You can also just change the last part of this website to see if such a user exists:
http://openstudy.com/users/meganxoxo
You can also just search up their username on google and add "site:openstudy.com"

Answer 10

what happens when i made a tutorial or had suggestions that i wish not to recopy and paste into a new post because that might count as medal spam? @MeganXOXO

Answer 11

and it is a lot more work do go to URL and do that don't u think, and what if we wish not to use jay's extension?

Answer 12

You can always give users who need that tutorial the link to the original post. \(\ddot\smile\)

Answer 13

what about we add just for the OS feedback section?

Answer 14

cause that was why i suggested these in the first place

Answer 15

Multiple posts in the OS Feedback subject has been suggested before. :)

Answer 16

i noted that :)

Answer 17

Also, if you don't want to use Jaynator's extension to search for users, then I also gave you other ways to search for other users. \(\ddot\smile\)

Answer 18

.__________________________________________________________________________________. fine

Answer 19

There is already a username search: http://prntscr.com/alm6hv

Answer 20

@orange_ That's because you have @Jaynator495 's extension. For users that do not have it, that menu does not appear.

Answer 21

I know, I was just suggesting a solution.
