You must offer a tip from your own Mahalo$ (M$) Balance. Yes, it was the result of a glitch, kind of... You cannot ask an unlimited number of "free" questions. (You know, the ones that automatically get a M$0.25 tip.) Your belt level determines how many free questions you can ask each day.
Tuesday morning, there was an error on Mahalo causing all questions to be 8 hours old, crediting them to Monday. @davepamn has a reputation for asking a lot of questions. S current cap (purple belt + brown tip) is 17 questions.
Well, when the error occurred on Tuesday morning, the site was crediting his questions to Monday. When he hit is 17 questions for Monday, the site started requiring him to offer his own tip instead of letting him ask free questions. Just remember, he was asking theses questions Tuesday morning during the time when the site's clock was off and crediting his questions to Monday.
And if you are wondering, your current belt (green) has a limit of 10 free questions per day and 20 questions offering your own tips per day.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
