1. zed_k4 (4522) | 2 months ago | I've never realized that plagiarism has happened here! I must be so ignorant. Thanks for telling, Diana. I would have to keep a lookout for any of my answers being copied, if any..

zed_k4 (4522) | 2 months ago | Thanks a lot, D. Just curious; have any of your discussions been plagiarized?

angelajoy (974) | 2 months ago | Hey mysd, if you see someone copy my posts, please tell me too. So far I've never seen any mylotter copy my posts, but if I ever see one I will definitely not let that person off the hook. Plagiarism is not just a mylot offense. It's a crime punishable by law.

Aliceinwebland (5004) | 2 months ago | I'm the same as you zed... oblivious to it all, but will learn to read more. I usually read and rate friend's posts, even if they come after my post, but it seems it's best to read everything in every discussion to catch these idiots.

3. May2k8 (1318) | 2 months ago | yes, I agree with you I use copy-paste just in case if the internet suddenly disconnected and I forgot what I had written. Required to eradicate attacks a powerful weapon, or software that can detect all the letters we write.

mysdianait (12005) | 2 months ago | That is how it can be used correctly May. It is a privilege which we earn amd we should not abuse it. Most of us don't but occasionally there is one who thinks that no-one will notice. What a waste of their time!

Sandra1952 (1458) | 2 months ago | My thoughts exactly, Thea. Still, the Mys has eyes where nobody would think she has them, and nothing gets past her. If only these people would put as much effort into creating as they do into cheating, we'd all benefit from it.

5. Sandra1952 (1458) | 2 months ago | Hello Diana. I see the old cheat detector antenna is twitching again. I can't say I've noticed my responses being copied, but then I don't really tend to go back to discussions once I've posted unless I get comments or I'm really interested in reading more on a particular discussion.
I have noticed people copying other people's discussion topics verbatim, and I've reported them every time. I've also noticed that some people copy a section of an internet article and pass it off as their own discussion. It's a dead giveaway that one, because the sentence or two of their own writing is in a totally different style. Additionally, as you read the comments they make, it's obvious from the spelling and grammar that no way could they have written what's been posted themselves.
I think the only answer would be for Mylot to have something like Copyscape running in the background, if it was logistically and technically possible. It would catch out the ones who copy from other sites, but it may be difficult with responses, as many people tend to use the same phrases. I suppose it could be set to pick up, say 8 - 10 word sentences that were identical to other postings. Don't know if it's viable, as I don't do technical, but anything that stops these thieves - and they are thieves, because they are stealing other people's intellectual property - would be very welcome.

Aliceinwebland (5004) | 2 months ago | Yep plagiarized material is easy to spot we can always tell a users M.O. (modus operandi) perfectly laid out paragraphs, no typos etc etc. Even changing things around can still be easy to see and work out.

7. laceycyoung (258) | 2 months ago | Gesh, that so suck's that some people have to stoop that low. I guess some people just do not have any morals. I hope they get caught doing it. I can't imagine someone having to do that rather then posting there own comment. I guess they just do not have any brain to use, or even to think with. If you ask me people like that dont even need to try and respond if they cant come up with something original.

8. dlr297 (2803) | 2 months ago | I have not noticed that happening, and you would think that buy the time someone reaches 500 posts that they would know better. I do most of my responding right from my e-mail so i do not see what others have posted until after i submit my response.

9. WebMann (2766) | 2 months ago | I find it quite annoying when I read a great response to a discussion and find that they just ripped it off from another person or another web site, without giving credit to the originator of the content.
I have confronted people with this and they just ignore it.
I guess all we can do is to report them.

10. victorywp (292) | 2 months ago | i never know that some people would be so 'smart'? or stupid? whatever. LOL! i really never thought of this thing could happen.
i think the culprit is attacking old discussions (especially those with more than a hundred of comments) whereby he/she expects that no one would return to the discussion. because even someone returns to see, they won't check each of the pages. am i right, mysdianait?
i never go back to any of my responded discussions so i do not know whether mine had been copied & pasted as a new comment. however, if someone does this in my discussion, i can easily catch the culprit. i regularly check my discussion for new comments, & yes, i remember all the comments (even they are more than a hundred). LOL!
mysdianait, you are really great to have caught the culprit. i think that culprit would never thought of being caught.:D
