TSR is no longer useful to study

Hi! It's rather unfortunate to say this but TSR is not being used as it should be now, that is to study. It's not the first time I'm seeing such thing to happen but rather many times. I posted something related to economics revision tips and bumped it thrice so as someone can help me, but NO REPLY

However, there are topics by others which are not even study related and mostly about "bs" stuff and they get so much attention?

You realise how demotivating it is when you come here with a hope to get some help, even with a large community like this, not even one preferred to check my recent topic...

It's about students in general not exclusively study.

Perhaps no one had the answer. Do you post in the right section, considering this is in international lounge?

What's your question?

Probably because it's summer holidays and nobody is revising!
@qasim_96 It's catching on.

OP, you're referring to the cesspool known as the relationships section, ignore that.

Believe me when I say there is still an element of study, if you go to the right places, try finding an alternative forum on TSR, more related to your query, and you may have a higher chance of seeking a better, more specialised answer.

I'd say the most active is for maths.

More and more people are realising this nowadays.
TSR's academic function disintegrated a long, long time ago...

I give anyone permission to murder me if I ever make an AMA thread.

What would enhance the quality of that sentence, making it more TSR friendly would be:

"I give anyone permission to murder me if I ever make an AMA thread...AMA"

Don't forget the obligatory religious undertones!

Irony is that OP is now failing to reply
I sold my soul signing up for it.

No refunds.
Wait what? Since when was TSR for studying?
You appear to have ignored the entirety of the Study Help and University sections. Which is where such content would be found.
