The reason I think why people often plagiarize is because they look down on themselves by hiding the little knowledge they have in them, they feel shy about it not knowing that if they express the little knowledge inside of them will make them to know more and help them to grow .

My man, I like actmyname's explanation much better because it cuts to the truth of the situation much better than yours does.

The facts are these:
1) Signature campaigns/bounties most often pay for posts in English.
2) Many participants in those campaigns/bounties are non-English speakers.
3) Many are also dishonest and lazy and think nothing of trying their luck with the rules, knowing they can just create another account if they get caught, even if that itself is against the rules.

That's the long and short of it. Also, I would suggest that we don't need an in-depth analysis of why people plagiarize on this forum. It's not rocket science.

Not an English speaker myself, either, but had dedicated quite a few years during my teenage years trying to master them. Let's also take into account how many users use Google Translate, (Stated facts 1 and 2), often with poor results, thus sometimes it's just an easier and faster way to be done with it. Luckily, most of those users do not enter the most renowned campaigns, or are often kicked for low quality posts.

There is multiple reasons why people do it. One of it - they want to be ''smarter'' than everyone else and earn money without putting much effort. And they think that they won't be caught. If there is rule, there always will be people who will try to break it. Especially when it comes to money. Another reason is lack of knowledge. Some users here don't have much knowledge about crypto, but still want to earn money. So, stealing other people work is solution for them. And another reason - as said above, languague barrier can be problem for some people too. If you aren't fluent English speaker, it will be difficult for you to make constructive posts.

God is great

Plagiarism or paraphrasing is a common habit to people who are not ready to learn, all they think is to be so fast to take people's work elsewhere to meet up the standard of members who have paid price and time for years to have a sound knowledge. This members who plagiarized hide themselves in a sheep clothes having the mindset stealing a work from outside they won't be caught in the forum.

The reason I think why people often plagiarize is because they look down on themselves by hiding the little knowledge they have in them, they feel shy about it not knowing that if they express the little knowledge inside of them will make them to know more and help them to grow . I believe what is being practiced by a person makes the person to be better or perfect. I feel the main reason why people plagiarize they feel lazy, not ready to learn to grow and they want to be in a class or level of people who have spent to get knowledge.
