 **1. Introduction ** The approach of the study is appropriate. However, the background could be more condensed and more information concerning cooperation behaviour in the course of time, group size, awareness of the importance of information, costs of entering information, use-related bonus systems, feedback and recommendations and group awareness, is expected . The purpose of the study need to state more clearly. Also the purpose of the study should be presented consistently  both in abstract and in introduction. The research question could be spesified.

The design is appropriate for the study. The descriptions of participants, data collection as well as analysis are needed to specify.  If these have been described in previous articles, please cite to these studies.

WRITING STYLE and LANGUAGE <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">Some long sentences.

Reviewer’s Comments <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">This is an interesting paper which reports the knowledge exchange as a social dilemma. This topic falls with the scope for me unknown/fictional journal. However, there are some issues I want to point out so that the manuscript is logical and can be considered for publication. I encourage the authors to revise the manuscript and placing effort especially in the background, methods and discussion sections.
