Source: Use your common sense! (enough is enough)
Some users don't want to learn, some other simply ignore advises.
But please follow the following guideline:


To make it short: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!
If you don't have common sense, don't post.


More specifically:

For new threads:


a) Good, meaningful title:
The title has to say what the problem is about in best way possible.
If that title occured already, it's definitely bad. And contest names aren't good either.
That's in fact a requirement for being able to search old problems.

Examples:
Bad titles:
- "Hard"/"Medium"/"Easy" (if you find it so cool how hard/easy it is, tell it in the post and use a title that tells us the problem)
- "Number Theory" (hey guy, guess why this forum's named that way¿ and is it the only such problem on earth¿)
- "Fibonacci" (there are millions of Fibonacci problems out there, all posted and named the same...)
- "Chinese TST 2003" (does this say anything about the problem¿)
Good titles:
- "On divisors of a³+2b³+4c³-6abc"
- "Number of solutions to x²+y²=6z²"
- "Fibonacci numbers are never squares"


b) Use search function:
Before posting a "new" problem spend at least two, better five, minutes to look if this problem was posted before. If it was, don't repost it. If you have anything important to say on topic, post it in one of the older threads.
If the thread is locked cause of this, use search function.

Update (by Amir Hossein). The best way to search for two keywords in AoPS is to input
[code]+"first keyword" +"second keyword"[/code]
so that any post containing both strings "first word" and "second form".


c) Good problem statement:
Some recent really bad post was:
[quote]$lim_{n\to 1}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{n}-lnn$[/quote]
It contains no question and no answer.
If you do this, too, you are on the best way to get your thread deleted. Write everything clearly, define where your variables come from (and define the "natural" numbers if used). Additionally read your post at least twice before submitting. After you sent it, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.


For answers to already existing threads:


d) Of any interest and with content:
Don't post things that are more trivial than completely obvious. For example, if the question is to solve $x^{3}+y^{3}=z^{3}$, do not answer with "$x=y=z=0$ is a solution" only. Either you post any kind of proof or at least something unexpected (like "$x=1337, y=481, z=42$ is the smallest solution). Someone that does not see that $x=y=z=0$ is a solution of the above without your post is completely wrong here, this is an IMO-level forum.
Similar, posting "I have solved this problem" but not posting anything else is not welcome; it even looks that you just want to show off what a genius you are.

e) Well written and checked answers:
Like c) for new threads, check your solutions at least twice for mistakes. And after sending, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.



To repeat it: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!


Everything definitely out of range of common sense will be locked or deleted (exept for new users having less than about 42 posts, they are newbies and need/get some time to learn).

The above rules will be applied from next monday (5. march of 2007).
Feel free to discuss on this here.

What's the chance that two AoPS accounts generate with the same icon?
Math-lover1   0
11 minutes ago
So I've been wondering how many possible "icons" can be generated when you first create an account. By "icon" I mean the stack of cubes as the first profile picture before changing it.

I don't know a lot about how AoPS icons generate, so I have a few questions:
- Do the colors on AoPS icons generate through a preset of colors or the RGB (red, green, blue in hexadecimal form) scale? If it generates through the RGB scale, then there may be greater than $256^3 = 16777216$ different icons.
- Do the arrangements of the stacks of blocks in the icon change with each account? If so, I think we can calculate this through considering each stack of blocks independently.

Wow I can't believe I'm at 2000 posts already! I guess this also celebrates my (late) 3 year anniversary on AoPS!

um i guess i share my story (most problems are written by me)

1st grade -- i forgot ok

2nd grade -- i was at public school like the regular kids, there i started loving basketball and i was already working on prealgebra level stuff example problem

3rd grade -- started aops i skipped to calculus anyway so here i was still in public school and I started algebra a, but made no progress so my parents asked me if I want to homeschool (lucky they didn't force me), and i said yes example problem

4th grade -- Finished intro to programming with python, got 13 on amc 8 (skull), finished all intro courses except intro to number theory. i was shaky on lots of concepts and i had to do a review (by myself with the aops books) sometimes. example problem

5th grade -- finished intermediate programming with python but somehow failed usaco (the score shall be undisclosed), i started learning some basic C++, and finished all intro courses and im doing intermediate algebra and intermediate number theory now :D . I got 21 on amc 8 (improvement but no dhr) and 72 on amc 10a (buh). oh and by the way I'm still playing basketball in my rec league :) example problem

for more example problems go to my two mock amc 8's and keep an eye on my other mock im about to create!

anyway thanks aops for 2000 posts it helped me learn so much


p.s. lots of information i didn't share but this is the general idea (also pls upvote! if i reach 10 upvotes i will create something special here)

@LittleBacat, you could get more posts! (I think i have 529 or around something like that)
Also, congrats to @evt917!!!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:
I’ve did aops for around 1/2 a yr i think?

So basically this is my math life

In Grade 1 (year 2) i was working on stuff on geometry like there’s 2 overlapping squares and you calculate a shaded area with 3 given side lengths
In Grade 2 (year 3) i focused on doing more variable work and learnt the Pythagorean theorem
In Grade 3 (year 4) i was SUPER bored because the school work was tooooo easy and tried to understand the proof of the Pythagorean theorem, which wasn’t easy at that time while also doing ratios
Grade 4 (year 5) joined aops and finally understood Pythagorean theorem learned to calculate area of a circle, doing AMC 8, and reading books about basic trigonometry

Rnow i only need 1 min to do school math homework (about)

Also, congrats to @evt917!!!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:
I’ve did aops for around 1/2 a yr i think?

So basically this is my math life

In Grade 1 (year 2) i was working on stuff on geometry like there’s 2 overlapping squares and you calculate a shaded area with 3 given side lengths
In Grade 2 (year 3) i focused on doing more variable work and learnt the Pythagorean theorem
In Grade 3 (year 4) i was SUPER bored because the school work was tooooo easy and tried to understand the proof of the Pythagorean theorem, which wasn’t easy at that time while also doing ratios
Grade 4 (year 5) joined aops and finally understood Pythagorean theorem learned to calculate area of a circle, doing AMC 8, and reading books about basic trigonometry

Rnow i only need 1 min to do school math homework (about)

This year I got 16 for AMC 8 i think not bad because I’m only 4th grade!!!!! I can’t really find anyone on aops the same age as me. Also i type fastest in my whole class!

I'm 4th grade too lol

also gj on 2000 posts! I've been here for 3 years almost and I only have 1200...
