Brainly.com is a website where students or other people can answer questions related to school subjects wich are submitted by other users. The website is mainly targeted for students, but teachers from all around are also active on the website to answer questions. In brainly you receieve points for every question you answer, you can then use those points to gain higher positions in the website. Everyone starts as a beginner with 0 points and can go all the way up to genius with 15000 points. If you want to ask something, you need to spend points, a user can determine how many points they want to spend on a question, the more you spend on a question, the higher the reward is for the answerer, thus resulting in faster responses.
Brainly is a very usefull website, don't get me wrong, I use it all the time, but the thing is, brainly makes students super lazy, some students ask stupid questions wich answers can be simply found by just READING A book or even easier GOOGLING IT. If you don't know something atleast try to look for the answer. Another problem I would like to adress is the point hungry users, the points for answering reward is a good concept, it motivates people to learn and answer question, it also helps to keep the users active, but ofcourse there are people who forget the whole point of the website, I am talking about those people who answer questions with COMPLETE NONSENSE just for the points, the reason this is possible is because in brianly there is no filter or answer moderator, so anything you type will get you points, even though there is a report button, it still isn't sufficient enough to eliminate the problem.
So that's the end of my rant, even though brainly is annoying, I still need it for homework, so B Y E
