Plagiarism

for my part, yes. It's the high skill of flattering another author, by quoting him, combined with flattering your readers, by assuming they are knowledged enough to recognize it is a quote. A very fine and polite art, indeed.

I knew it would end badly when I first met Chris in a Canberra alleyway and he said 'try some-it won't hurt you'... -Christian Graus on Code Project outages His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a tumble dryer.

I know members in the lounge have had concerns that articles have been copied from codeproject to elsewhere without the authors permission and I wouldn't be surprised if it hasn't happened in return. problem those in the lounge who wuld see this message are into the community and therefore probably wouldn't do anything to bring the site into disrepute. come on then name names :)

Technically speaking the dictionary would define Visual Basic users as programmers.

Care to give us some background information - like: P: Ollie, what motivated you to ask about Plagiarism? Were you angered by a plagiator, were you just bored? Our readers want to know!

Probably he want to plagiarize an article and just checks the chances to succeed :)

Excellent! :-D I love the new word "plagiator". I promise to try to use it in some document at least once a week. Lets try to get it into dictionaries.

The opinions expressed in this communication do not necessarily represent those of the author (especially if you find them impolite, discourteous or inflammatory).

erp - heck you know what I meant - if I read every post I made I would spend far too much time on this site - and I spend far too much time as it is

The reason I ask is because I been looking around the web for information about a .Net C# problem I am having(well had, now solved it :)) and a lot of simple examples articles published are copied from either MSDN, published books chapters or other sites - mainly MSDN and published chapters from books.... I just think it is a little sad to pass of some else example code as one's own...
