    OK, so a homework question comes in: Lazy, lazy, lazy[^] He can't even be bothered to hide that this is homework, and he hasn't done it. He pastes the whole task in as a question. Not even a polite "Please help" or "I'm stuck". Just the task. So, I - joking, but to shift it from the "unanswered" pile without deleting it - answer

    OK - done.
    Post your tutors email, and I'll send it directly for you.

    Normally, they are bright enough to realise that won't work - the tutor will get the homework from my email, rather than the OP's. So. He does. Now I have the OP tutors email. Should I: 1) Reply to student, saying do it yourself or I'll email the tutor and tell him. 2) Reply to tutor, telling him. 3) Send a load of old rubbish to the tutor and get the OP a failing grade. 4) Send the tutor a good answer in the OP's name. 5) Send the tutor a good answer in the OP's name plastered with copyright notices to me. 6) Just ignore it and let the OP panic. I do know that (4) is not going to happen. I really don't quite know what to do here!:confused:

    Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

    Definatelly #2. Writting software is hard enough, we dont need to make it more difficult by having to do additional code maintenance created from people like that. I dont want to be mean, but hey, I dealt with a lot of incompetance from 3rd parties latelly.
