Fred T. Jane Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Plagiarism and good grades aren't mutually exclusive. That's all I wanted to hear. Tell that to the 6 kids I've busted so far this year plagarizing writing assignment. Heck one of them even tried to pass it on me twice! BTW, not to be rude, you misspelled Pharoahs on your sig...unless you did it on purpose, nevermind!The plagiarism line was an inside joke that a few of the guys will get. Plagiarism is terribly wrong, I don't condone it at all.Pharoah is actually spelled P-H-A-R-A-O-H. It's A before O. Believe me, I did extensive research before I created that identity package. I didn't want to ruin it all by misspelling the team name. And CCSLC member amare32 (the guy that I did it for) would have told me with the quickness had I made such an error. Mea Culpea. Our spelling book has it my way. Hmm... and people wonder why the American education system is in tatters... [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

StoneRaizer Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 A few weeks ago in my Illustrator class at school a few classmates got caught handing in other peoples' work and "changing it up a bit." The work that was copied was copied with permission, but that doesn't make a difference, it's stll plagiarism. They're lucky the teacher's a nice guy and didn't throw them out of class, because he could have easily expelled them. FYI, I wasn't a copier or a copiee, I'm a good boy. What they did is the same thing you did - copied someone else's work, changed it up a bit and tried to pass it off as your own. Try to do what you did here in school or the real world and you'll see why it's a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stampman Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I'm not prolific here, and my stuff will never reach the levels of some people here--that's okay--but I do most of my own stuff, and give credit--with permission--when others have helped me out. When I joined the NABA I designed my own uis. vicfurth cleaned up my unis & posted them--the concept was mine, but the presentation his, and I didn't try to take credit--and thanked him for it. Teh same for my court for the team.SyPhi also desigend a logo for the team, unsolicited!So he certainly gets credit as well.There are some examples on the boards that mix up people's work--but it's all above board and with permission and credit where due. Comic Sans walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve your type here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
