I have 3 requests from brilliant as follows
1.Bring back the trigonometry section.
2.Bring back the Leaderboard.
3.Bring back the Points Exchange Section.
Users may also give their opinion on this topic............
This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science
related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should
explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments
should further the discussion of math and science.
When posting on Brilliant:
Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

I thought trigonometry is subtopic of geometry.
It's already there. The leaderboard is based on solving streak and point earned. If you mean like the old days then it probably can't, since the layout is totally different with what brilliant used to be (weekly problemset).
This is what on my mind. I thought the reason why brilliant delete points exchange section is because people only focused on the prize so much rather than learn how to solve problem. From what I see before the points exchange disappear, many people discuss the problem outside brilliant and that's not how brilliant works! After the exchange points disappear, brilliant become "less cheating" and 'more discussing" because there is no reason to do the cheating anymore. Although sometimes I miss the old days when we get weekly problemset because currently when I'm gonna solve problem, I feel like less motivated. I remember I was study like crazy, read many books, go to library, just to solve one brilliant problem. But above from what I've said, I owe many thanks to brilliant. Oh yeah, you also can get prize if you win competition that brilliant held.
There are now Chemistry and Biology topics on Brilliant. Check out the problem creation interface. We will discuss adding trig as a topic there as well.
Yes, bring back Trigo, and create Chemistry officially with ratings. And it would be really nice if there is a way we can get prizes and tshirts again.

Agree with bringing back the trig. section ...
Could we have proper Chemistry and Biology sections?

Not Biology please
Chemistry Please....

In favour of chemistry
Biology ca,t have numericals
Yea. Even a proper quantum physics section.

I think if there is no leaderboard than u should display world rank and rank percentile of every user
So points exchange wil not be back........well i hve claimed for the brilliant T-Shirt so when will i recieve it 2 months hve passed

Be patient, I've finally received it after 8 months.
Don't worry it will eventually arrive, mine took a bit long too...
Can we please have a mental ability section also!

I'm not sure what point exchange and leaderboard were like, so I can't say anything. :-0 Sorry. x'D
I'd like to see the leaderboard have things like "Most Followers", "Most Solved", etc.

Oh! yes, I also like to see that!
Trig, bio, chem, sounds great! I'll be glad to help with any of those. ^^
Yes, bring back Trigo, and create Chemistry officially with ratings. And it would be really nice if there is a way we can get prizes and tshirts again.
I want the point exchange back too!
can we have chemistry too please

There is a lot of chemistry problems, and more every day! Use the search bar at the top of the screen.
hmm..i think no leaderboard,please
The leaderboard would be nice.
Bringing back the trigon section,,,
should bring back trigonometery section
