Topic: Plagiarism in newbies - page 2. (Read 697 times)
It's not just a newbie issue but has become an issue for those who ever plagiarised and either intentionally or accidentally forgot to credit the person who was behind that comment. The only thing for newbies to do is to go by the rules, but for that they need to read them first else nothing could help them. Plagiarism is being done more by those who come here only for money making.
I don't think the plagiarisers are actually new to the forum
Yeah plagiarism is not new matter in the forum accepted but the level of plagiarism in the forum is too high and needs to be eradicated.
[TIPS] to avoid plagiarism. I don't pump it and people probably forget my topic on plagiarism. After reading it, you will find out that there are second chances for people who deserve but please don't plagiarise anything. Your odds to be given a second chance is very very low. Remember that, please.
I don't think newcomers realise how disliked plagarism is here, and I don't really get it either but it is what it is. They will be visiting instant death upon themselves.
Of course, your word are really polite and right on target, when I was a beginner I also did not know enough about the rules of the forum that plagiarism is the most prohibited thing here and it is the deadliest weapon for suicide on bitcointalk forum. 
Actually there are rules that have been set in the forum for all member and which must be obeyed, but because at first many user are confused about the rules, plagiarism seem inevitable and that will be an experience. Sometimes knowledge is gained from experience, but for those who are familiar with online forum, they will first find out the rules in force before carrying out activities here.
Theft isn't a replacement topic within the forum it's been around for an extended time a way better thanks to stealing There are many of us within the forum who aren't ready to make quality posts. they modify the sort of posts through piracy However the moderator can ban if he wants. If we expect something maybe a scam report it to the moderator and he will only be ready to delete it Therefore before posting you've got to write down the syllabus well then write it generally.
Also based from what I have seen in previous cases newbies that don't resort to copying the texts directly they always opt out paraphrasing the text as well. Paraphrasing is good however text-spinning or word swapping is not, technically you still plagiarized the content as you just swap out words or switch their position either way it is still the words or point from the original creator. If you want to paraphrase something you must write it on your own without directly copying the sentence construction of what others have said. Safest way to be involve in the topic is to know what they are talking about and read some more references before you start composing your own post.
What planet are you from?
Theft is a crime all over the world.
Theft of intellectual property has the same gravity and is a crime. You're just less likely to get caught and punished, except for CSW.

Most beginners haven't been aware that plagiarism is not accepted here, some plagiarist unveils the inner disrespectful character in them, many whose posts were plagiarized had been moved to trashed waste bin and the poster where ban immediately.

My own favourite was someone plagarising me literally the post below. At least put a little bit of effort in.
And when you add up the time expended on putting together posts plagarised from multiple posts or using the services to disguise it you could've written your own post in less time.

Last year the biggest ban waved has come, there are 1,939 total numbers of banned members and most cases are plagiarized, the largest members had banned are newbies accounts. I don't know if what tool they used to determine plagiarized content, they had harvested a lot of plagiarism accounts at that time.
Plagiarism is really restricted everywhere, and once a plagiarist will be always a plagiarist even how many accounts he had it might be continued cheating on other's work. Laziness might one of the reasons why those plagiarists continue doing that and they never know there might have a punishment ahead once they had caught.
I may suggest to newbies just build and construct your own content, as long as it is readable and understandable to others that will be fine.

<…> The current punishment is a sig ban right? It's a pretty good solution considering people mostly only plagiarize for their sigs; the few who don't are still given a chance to participate in discussions.
Not really. The vast majority of the cases lead to a permanent ban straight off. Very few people are granted a signature ban instead, and those that do are forum members that, in the big picture, are considered net positive to the forum (and have likely needed to appeal their permanent ban in the first place, commuted for a signature ban after review).This list kept track of (some) ban appeals for some time: [ BAN APPEAL]UPDATE: Total table + Ban status (Need feedback from Global mods), but is no longer up-to-date.
It's a cheater way. Taking the easy road compared to producing their post and doing actual research. They might be thinking that it's an easy way to get post counts here and "possibly" get merit with the copying. They probably believe that plagiarism is an easy way to level up with the current rules. Copying somebody else's work and passing it as your own is unacceptable in any kind of discipline. It should be known to all already and common sense. 
Being a newbie is not the reason for plagiarism, we were all newbie at a time in this forum and was never accused. I feel the notion of joining the forum is more of the bounty and some dont know what plagiarism looks like. Plagiarism could be treated on a thread like every other topics, let people know how to write and quote rightly especially on this forum. I also think outright ban on plagiarism should be relax to give forum users opportunity to learn
Doing plagiarism mostly happen to the beginners because they are newbies and they don't understand well something about the forum, some newbies realize that plagiarism is prohibited on this forum because they haven't tried reading the rules and guidelines of the forum
I know the forum has an official rule against it, but really, is there anywhere plagiarism is allowed? IMO this shouldn't even be an explicit rule considering it isn't tolerated on any platform. It's almost like saying you don't understand the laws in an overseas trip when caught stealing.
The only way for the forum to quash plagiarism is through bans imo as I don't think it's something users are doing as soon as they trice (if not told by someone else to) - that being said I can't speak for the alt boards people could probably get away with stuff there because it's so active with posters so may be where they try.

If you think that the particular post is made by plagiarism we have the google search engine and search the part of the statement and if there is a statement the same like the actual post you can use the Report to moderator or direct to this thread.
Beside on google search engine, we have the different plagiarism checker like the Grammarly Plagiarism Checker.

Usually new users that copy other users posts or other websites content without providing source get reported very fast here and they get permaban in most cases immediately after that so they don't stay much in the forum to promote to higher ranks or make a mess out of sections, so it's not concerning.
I am in some other forums as well and the problem of plagiarism is way more obvious there and very little is being done to remove those plagiarised contents or at least deal with those who does that on a daily basis.

<...> their intention is good to have quality and share good posts, but they have done it with the wrong moves because they had stolen others content.
Well, plagiarism is plagiarism. If they can't express ideas of their own and use others, they should always bear in mind to give credit to the original source. It's understandable that beginners don't have enough knowledge about some things yet, that's why they have to read the articles thoroughly first then give their own view of it. Not merely copy and paste. Point is, if you know that the idea is not yours, give credit where credit is due.Plagiarism is not a new issue in this forum. Least we can do to help in eliminating it is to report them to mods so they can give the necessary action.
Yeah plagiarism is not new matter in the forum accepted but the level of plagiarism in the forum is too high and needs to be eradicated.
If you find some members is do plagiarism, you can report it like @btc_angela said above. Most of them will got nuked, temp-ban or perma-ban from moderators. To avoid plagiarism is simple, all you need is never copy-pasting other people post/work without give the original source.

Well aaid, there us always plagiarism in any forums, well that is not surprising because I also did it before when I was a beginner in other forum.
I don't think the plagiarisers are actually new to the forum
