Question

Ok, I'm sick of Open study. Why? because it's being conquered and smashed my other websites that are just copying us. I would like to help improve the site by giving this site a BIG update e.e something... that makes new users want to stay... Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Everyone can take part in helping the site :D there are many ways ^-^ For example: Helping out new users, Welcoming new users, Offering new users assistance on getting around, digital animation group that makes OS a new Welcome video, instead of fighting with new users to stop break the CoC just simply tell them the consequences and remind them they agreed to follow the CoC, etc. This site is getting old e.e and no one is doing anything... we need to make it modern and HIGH PERFORMANCE!!!

Answer 2

Open Study has limited space on servers and we have more than 1,000 users signing up every month, Want less lag and glitching? Then stop making thousands of alts or you can always help the site buy giving a $10 subscription.

Answer 3

ur right!

Answer 4

but i dont have any money do
XD

Answer 5

@superteenblue it's ok but you can always help in other ways :D

Answer 6

I agree there are a lot of adjustments OS needs to fix.After all @Preetha is the owner of the site and she should be fixing the glitches and lags on her spare time

Answer 7

Yeah no suscription that would lower your website count. I know openstudy hates people saying this site but read my comment. Peeranswer has options for video chatting and is like a social site on top of a study site. We do that plus add like a small flash games part then I am pretty sure this site would be better than ever in a few weeks. Also add admins who have the right social activity skills. If you're wanting to make this site more social then we need more admins to help monitor situations. One's that know how to handle people. I'm not trying to boost me up or anything. But I've rarely been reported and I've gotten a warning on those reports once. Even then it got sorted out when I explained my side. Just a couple of ideas right there.

Answer 8

mhm

Answer 9

See in my world Open Study is like the United States of America, Why doesn't Russia, China or North Korea launch attacks on us? (Even though they have much more troops) because we are modern and have to high technology that can beat them in 2 seconds. Our Equipment is getting out dated and we need to start updating it.

Answer 10

otay! lol XD

Answer 11

@A_Burning_Masquerade that site isn't educational .-. why doesn't OS have Video chat or a Cinema? #1 we have perverted users, this aint no stripper joint or XXX rated website IF PA WANTS TO HAVE IT!!! they can have it to be perverted like the creator of the site ^_^

Answer 12

I see what you're saying. What if instead of a suscription, which again will drop the website count and everyone would eventually go to another website, ask people for donations?

Answer 13

Whoa. You asked for my opinion bro chill out.

Answer 14

pa is pervy and they talk about sex and joints and stuff

Answer 15

lol XD

Answer 16

Well you asked for users help which I'm a user. So by the laws of extension you asked for my help. :)

Answer 17

OS is recognized to have educational back up from educational branches. What education branches back up a site that seems more like a circus for Teens?

Answer 18

I also find it nice that you're posting the link on the other sites ^-^

Answer 19

Again you asked for my help. So don't attack the people who are trying to help. If you want to impose a suscription fee. Go on ahead. But honestly that would be the one time I won't be there to say I told you so when your website count goes from 1000 to 100 in a week. Sound good. :)

Answer 20

we should talk with the moderators about this too though

Answer 21

@mathmale

Answer 22

So if we want OS popular again we need to put more educational things instead of dating online, Cursing, and allowing kids on here to use the help from a more grown person who has done the homework before we should help more people out and we need more mods to help us out in a stuck or horrible situation and I agree with @A_Burning_Masquerade instead of 1,000 we go to 100 cause 1,000 is whats causing all of the lagging and glitching

Answer 23

@Preetha

Answer 24

We will not have R rated material on here @A_Burning_Masquerade e.e this site is for learning not for perverted things like the other sites.

Answer 25

I like it how you all took the point of my comment way out of control.

Answer 26

i would like to make acountants with all ov u

Answer 27

Stop tagging me on this post. I don't want to discuss this anymore with a irrational person. You asked for my help I gave it too you. Deal with it. Cool.

Answer 28

Then stop replying ._. and delete your comments because you will be stuck to this comment due to your replies

Answer 29

Oh also I never said I like that website more. I only use it for the cinema part. So yeah. I suggest this post get's shut down @jigglypuff314 and @mathmale. I'm just saying here it went from asking for advice to this.

Answer 30

#niceshirt.

Answer 31

lol

Answer 32

if everybody invites just 1 friend, the entire population will be doubled, if the population grows larger, number of subscriptions goes larger, engineers can add blah blah blah, everyones happy, BUT the main thing starts with us existing users, if we just act kindly and be welcoming, and act like we are in a good environment, people will like us with the existing website features and tools, there is nothin much that needs to be added, just reduce the lag, adding MINIMAL extra features to keep it the way it was founded to be

Answer 33

Agreed

Answer 34

I definitely agree that we need to improve the site! It is as simple as new study tools to improve the experience.

-Welcome Video
-Perhaps available tutorial videos from qualified users on certain topics so some people can watch it?
-A more friendly environment
-Other rewards systems?
-Practice quizzes available to the learners in certain topics

Answer 35

@xMissAlyCatx also a more respectful environment :)

Answer 36

Maybe reward give away can include free owlbucks at the end of each week ^_^

Answer 37

they wouldn't make money :P

Answer 38

yes but... the reward would go to people the help out users in their questions :D

Answer 39

start off with 10 so u can try it out, then u can buy more from then on, or maybe end of each month

Answer 40

okay that would be fine

Answer 41

if u answer 100, u will get 10 by the end of a week or something?

Answer 42

Nah, people that answer a certain amount of questions get to be in a drawing... and the one that is chosen randomly is the one that gets an amount of 10 - 20 owlbucks :)

Answer 43

thats fine, like a raffle thing

Answer 44

As a sign of this... I will start doing the owlbuck drawing today :D the winner will be announced at the end of the day c;' so please go start answering questions... i'll be watching :D

Answer 45

That might get competitive....And people might argue about it...
And then there won't be a positive environment, and people might now like that ._.

Answer 46

not* Goodness

Answer 47

@YoungStudier pfft @malcolmmcswain did it for Christmas (random raffles not question answering) and people loved it ^-^

Answer 48

yes they might answer questions without thought, therefore not giving proper help to the user, which was what the site was founded on

Answer 49

Yeeaaahhhh, but people can get over competitive, Kevin.
And there's also this thing known as jealousy. ._.
Agreed Pups

Answer 50

@ILovePuppiesLol the rules are... NO direct answers and a proper explanation :)

Answer 51

if we slowly go away from the main principles of the website, it will be bad, turning into PA, where the STUDY SECTION DOESNT EVEN WORK

Answer 52

how are they going to keep track

Answer 53

I loved the Christmas raffles ;)

Answer 54

who wouldn't love random free stuff? That is not what the website was made for though

Answer 55

all names submitted in the raffle will be looked at... and what their questions are ^-^ I will also look on their questions and approve or disapprove their answers.

Answer 56

Meaning the user asking the question must be 100% satisfied with the help :D

Answer 57

I never said that was what the website was made for lol it just made os a bit more fun for users during the holidays

Answer 58

^

Answer 59

It also makes lazy users want to answer questions :)

Answer 60

and there are going to be how many entries?

Answer 61

unlimited... :)

Answer 62

maybe we can have an ambassador team/trusted users team evaluate the questions/answers

Answer 63

thats going to be my final say on that part of the suggestion, we should focus more on other things though

Answer 64

but the user has to answer 50 questions (just for today) e.e and the ones asking the questions must be 100% satisfied.

Answer 65

^ tru

Answer 66

I'll make a new post... ^-^ with raffle details and all rules that apply.

Answer 67

brb let me go start making the rules... getting everything prepared and go buy the owlbucks .-.

Answer 68

did you get any sort of approval on this

Answer 69

I'd love to participate, but I've got to go in 15 minutes :-(

Answer 70

must I remind you there is probably some sort of policy stated either in the terms and conditions or stated NOWHERE that will not allow u to do this without proper permission.. it would be better for us not to rush things

Answer 71

:)
