I got administrative warning last month...like this... Messages with GoAskAlex_Admin "Administrative Warning... I removed several of your posts because they were plagiarized. It is something we take seriously here and can result in the immediate removal of your account.. please refrain from this in future...." Have you anybody got this type of message?.... What steps have I to take now?...

I also thought that the answer is easy, but, alas some people find the concept of abiding to rules is too much of a brain work out!

Read the Guidelines, learn the rules and DO NOT copy material which is not your own from other websites. Plagiarism is stealing and is a crime, not just a 'misdemeanour'! Do it again and you will be OUT ... without further warning!

All you had to do was message me back and I would have been more than happy to clarify. I see that others have already spoke up and defined plagiarism, so I won't be redundant in doing so.

@gamyam I would have thought that it would be clear to anyone that they should follow the guidelines. Was there a moment before you cheated, stole and plagiarized that you thought it might be wrong?
