Plagiarising Premium Posts?????

Post by rameshrr3 »

I have seen quite a few posts , where the poster (usually a charter member) has plagiarised premium posts and made a few quick points in the process :roll: ? Is it not in violation of the spirit of the forum? rather than plagiarise, i suggest members to post the link to a premium post directly rather than copy paste premium text.

What about jobs and scripts? I think that is worse. I tend to over comment in scripts and sometimes BASIC code so it is easy to see my code in other people's work. To pawn other people's work as your own is worse. It is expected that others will reword something expecting it to be more easily understood besides who can understand someone from down under.

If it becomes an epidemic, we'll deal with it. Otherwise, I'm not too worried.

A cobber is your friend. Although you are just as likely to call your mates a b@stard as a term of endearment in Aussie lingo :o
