Chances of getting caught?
2005-01-09, 6:19 PM #41
Enough Yoshi I don't want to hear one more thing out of you honestly I've had enough I am not an idiot, and I am getting sick and tired of you calling me names. A joke is one thing and thats fine but I'm getting sick of it. I don't care if your life is hard okay bud I really don't everyones life is hard but I'm sick of you taking that out on me. You can just pack up and ship out as far as I am conserned. I'm gonna make this very clear even a 5 year old could get it.

LEAVE ME ALONE.

Who said anything about life being hard? What the hell?

I'm just laughing right now though, so hey this doesn't phaze me.

sugarless--I suppose I could, but I hate him too much to get my point across without quipping him.

But seriously, come on guys. arguing does no good exceot make everyone even madder

I'm really getting tired of seeing you insulting people too, especially Mech. It's really getting old and making this community incredibly unenjoyable. Please drop it, it's childish. He's asked you to leave him alone so please do so. If not for him, for the rest of us who get headaches reading pages of this crap in every thread.

Oh yes, so when he insults me, or says something HIGHLY erroneous, I should just do nothing? He says "OMG QUIT IT PLEASE"...and in the same post calls me an ignorant child. Sorry man, but I'm not laying down and taking it, especially not from him.

The same goes to you Mechwarrior.



Now, get back on subject.

Ok. Mechwarrior, I thought you left. It would be a lot better if it had stayed that way. DJ Yoshi was being sarcastic and such yes, but you and a couple others decided that mikus wasn't going to high school, and started talking about collage.


*sigh*

A dress is a necessity when dancing the cha-cha!

Let me refresh your memory.

Quote:
The punishment for getting caught is high but the risk is moderate I think. Just be careful that you don't do it to much.


Quote:
The punishment is -10 points. Whoop-dee-doo.


So your penalty is different, big deal. No need for the attitude.

Quote:
Yeah DJ Yoshi you might not have a high punishment cause you aren't high enough in the school system yet. When you get to college they don't put up with that **** anymore it's an automatic faliure and if you get caught 2 times they kick you out and your money is gone.


Still being quite civil, no insults at all. He's telling you WHY there's a difference between your penalty and his. And he's right, big difference between college and high school.

Quote:
Wow, you guys went to strict-*** high schools. That's all I can say. The only time you'd actually fail the course is Senior year, when you should already know how to write papers. At least here, and my old HS too.

Most Public schools have bigger concerns than someone who made up sources.


Nothing wrong here, IMO.

Quote:
Yoshi we aren't talking about HS.


Yes and no, the discussion was mainly about the differences between high school and college penalties. Nothing to warrant this:

Quote:
If you would've read one of my posts, it states that, if I remember correctly, Mikus is in High School.

You know what's sad? You're the one in Uni, and yet I'm having to tell you how to read a friggin forum post.


Annoying, but I don't think it's a BLATANT insult.

Quote:
Atleast I'm not the one running around saying this is a non serrious slap on the wrist.
and
Quote:
And that explains why he is the way he is.


Starting to lose patience, but he's much cooler-headed than I would be at this point.

Quote:
You really are an idiot, aren't you? Can you not comprehend IN HIGH SCHOOL. Said out there, plainly, simply, IN HIGH SCHOOL, before senior year, they don't do much for it. Why? Most of the time you don't have more than a few research papers a year. I know I only had 3. BS'ing a source would get 0 points for what it's worth on the final grade for sources (which is usually ~10 points) and probably a nasty note from the teacher. Because it's not plagiarizing, it's making something up. Plagiarizing would get a 0 on a paper, and possible expulsion, probably suspension.

Jesus people, read READ please.

[Edit] Thanks Avenger, Rogue, and sugarless for reading. Props.


Way, way over the line IMO. Obvious insult. The irony is that if YOU had read you would realize that Avenger and Rogue Leader are also talking about college and that sugarless didn't say either way.

I think that's as much as I need to post, it proves who started what I think. Nothing personal Yoshi, but please stop. I'd really hate to put someone on ignore, I've never had to before.

Oh yeah:

I insult Mech because he's very belligerent.
Admitting to breaking the rules? Looks like it.

And now to end the longest post I hope ever to make... This is getting rediculous. I ask again, nicely, please stop.

Mech shouldn't have come back. He's a very annoying person.

But there are more annoying ones out there *coughbillcough*

Avenger and Rogue both said that High School carried lesser penalties, as did sugarless. That's why I thanked them.

And you forget, this isn't the only thread we've traded words on.

Same thing at my college. Plagarism is punished much more heavily then simply failing to cite a source. Though my teacher last semester in English basically viewed the two as the same thing, his logic being that if you failed to cite your source, its because you were claiming that you wrote it yourself.

as far as I know, the punishments for making up sources aren't as high as not citing sources (aka plagarism). I think failure or suspension would be more for the latter than the former, but it would depend on your school I guess.


Like I said, Avenger and Rogue Leader are talking about college and sugarless doesn't say.

No, I didn't forget. That's my whole point, it's an on-going tirade with you. For the past few months it's all I seem to read here.

Er sorry, they talked about plagiarism not being the same as citing a non-existant source. My mistake.

And there's a good, good reason for it Crimson. If you're curious, I'll share tomorrow.

Or you could... just stop... you can "lie down and take it" or you can stand up and take it. That's called "being a man".
2005-01-09, 7:46 PM #65
On topic:

My college will kick you out of the school altogether if you are caugh plagiarising. If you don't cite correctly it's up to the professor really. He can give you a zero on the paper, in the class, kick you out of class, or recommend you for expulsion.

Thing is, on the internet, there is no difference between lying down and taking it and standing up and taking it.

Yes, please share. I doubt any reason you have I would agree with, but you think it's good enough so who knows? Maybe you ought to PM it so MB doesn't ban you?

hmm...well at least this whole thing is calming down. does anyone mind if I re-hijack this already hijacked (times like 5) thread? Would ayone care to wish me luck in my audition for Carousel? It's my senior year and so I REALLY want a decent part and [edit out obnoxious sounding stuff], but everyone says I'm going to get Neddie, so good vibes would be helpful thanks. I would create a thread about it, but I don't feel like it. that'll come later, if I end up getting the part :) I have to get some sleep.
