Cheating and boasting about it!

I really do not understand some people. I have just recieved a notification here saying that a person had mentioned me in a post. . . So I followed the link to have a look. The person in question is a known plagarist with a brilliant talent at copying and pasting information about computer software. Half an hour previously I had reported one of his posts and it was promptly deleted. Now why on earth would some one go to the effort (not that it takes much effort) to copy and paste some content, only to tag in a person who will report him? Makes no sense whatsoever! I can only think that he wants to boast about his copy and paste skill set! This is the second post today I have written about the low intellect of scammers and cheaters, are these people dumbing down?

that is true. I am just surprised that these people are not subtle and try to float past being reported.

@destry Maybe they are hoping people get fed up reporting spammers and plagiarists and will just ignore them!!!

The funny thing is that some of the cheats are too dumb to understand what being reported means.

@MALUSE So, they don't understand English? Is that the reason?

Seems like their intent was to annoy. They had to know they would be reported. It's almost like they were saying, "We're here. Game on."

I think even if they get there account deleted they probably just join back with a different email addy. Cheaters always find a way around the system.

it is good that they are dumb enough to make catching them so easily - I just hope there are not a few who are clever enough to avoid detection

It takes very little effort and I can only suppose that it has made them money in the past.

I don't know if they are really that stupid or they only pretend to be.

from the bubbling site to here, cheaters are rampant and they continue even if their accounts get deleted. just like MacArthur said, "I shall return!"

@Destry somethings defy comprehension. This is one such example.
