How about a place where people get connected on chat to share instant answers and recommendations depending on one's area of interest?

We've been exploring this idea and building tech for a while now and would love to hear your feedback/thoughts 🙏

Some more info. here - HelpTap

The idea is brilliant and I think this will be good. Just my concerns and suggestions:

-if ever there will be a massive number of people on chat Im afraid there will be missed and ignored
-try to create a section to sort out some concerns. in this way questions are not general
-try also to have a priority section where people who want to asked questions will pay to be listed on the priority. now the people who will answered some priority questions will have an additional rewards. all responders will not be given a rewards if the answer is just the same as the others.
-what if all people will just focus to answer priority questions because of rewards? it will not happened because I think all people will not pay for their questions just to be listed in priority sections as there are easy, medium and hard questions.

It's a good idea, if you want to use an incentive and reputation/voting model similar to Steemit, where you reward people for sharing answers deemed by reputable users as good or useful. But instead of using chat, I think a system like Quora works better. You specify your areas of interest, you can even mark yourself as "expert" in those areas. And anytime questions are asked, they're suggested to experts and you can choose to answer. If your answer sucks ass, you get downvoted and lose reputation. You gain it if your answers are useful.

That way, you only get rewarded for putting effort or being helpful.

Steemit's model is somewhat blind to spam.
