Fyi, I lumped you up with 90ish% of GzP. The "your" and "you're" along with "its" and "it's" are two of the most common mistakes in English grammar. I myself make the mistake on occasion.

If this section is going to be given a go, loads of guidelines would have to posted and people would have to read them. As chit-chat shows, stickies are NOT read often enough.

Also, the implementation of this new subsection of "Homework Help" raises lots of questions.



r2k brings up a really valid point that I think we sort of sidestepped. How would incentives work?

I originally though FFTA style with pubs, and rewards posted in terms of vPlaza points, but realized that that would alienate newer users who do not have many points. SUGGESTIONS NAO.

Also, what Stupending said still is true.



Many homework topics are not concrete and many abstract, opinion based questions could lead to serious debate.

I was thinking, that the "Homework Helper" section would have sub-sections of "tutors" that would each belong to a specifically chosen user on GzP. Each "tutor" could opt to take "X" amount of homework related questions and once they feel they have enough to occupy them for a while, they could close the section and the next question would go to the next "tutor"?

If for one am willing to lead my services for said section if it does become a reality.

Debates are healty as long as they are moderated, therefore you need a moderator that is constantly on, one who is unbiased towards anysides of the debate, I for one enjoy debates, if there wernt debates on GzP i would be on GzN already -_-
