Let’s Talk About Plagiarism

Stop it already… Every time, someone makes a popular blog, people start copying it.

Example:
mrlumpy spoofed a song, then we had everybody spoofing songs everywhere.
The Ninja started talking in 3rd Person, then for awhile, we had many of them following suit.
Fenrir created his alter-ego as a character, then:

Verbose: Lawl… Me ish sooo c00I_.

Verbose said: ” Me liek sooo 1337.”

etc…

Stop plagiarizing! It’s the act of stealing ideas or being unoriginal.

wikipedia said: “Plagiarism is the practice of “dishonestly” claiming or implying original authorship of material which one has not actually created, such as when a person incorporates material from someone else’s work into their own work without attributing it”

You might be thinking, “Oh, I didn’t claim that it was my own, so I win lalala.”

WRONG! DAT! WRONG!

You have to add this to your signature

Verbose says Verbose wants a cookie

The Ninja: 3rd Person Introduction To Community

I’m not saying that freedom of speech is not allowed but think of the original introducer in this community.

Sure. He might say “Oh nvm, you can use it if you wish.” But I’m sure he doesn’t want you to do it as it will make him less unique and introduce more conformity.

So, stop ctrl+c ctrl+v already.

  3. yeah but anyway i noticed the copying thing too

    i hate when people copy blogs

    it’s aggravating to come up with an original idea and have people copy it because they like it

    satire is on thing completely compying is another

  4. Verbose said: “Zzz, I mean the concept of

    Blah: Yadadada

    Blah: Shut up!”

    people have been doing that since the beggining of basilmarket

    who are they copying with that one? o.O

  5. *shrug* The Ninja was bored.

    Corrupting song lyrics seemed fun.

    Why doesn’t Wierd Al sue? He started parodying music before most of us were born.

    The concept alone was not Mrlumpy’s original idea, hence it isn’t plagarism. He’s awesome for bringing it here, though.

  6. The one thing you should really understand is that. No matter WHAT anyone writes, does, or says. Your plagerizing SOMEONE in this world. I made up the Alter-Ego things cause I was bored. Just cause Fenrir made an alter-ego or Waffles making an Alter-Ego does not restrict ME from making an Alter-Ego. And you can’t use that old Phrase “Monkey see, Monkey do”, cause plagerizm only means “Copying word for word” like making a book report and just copying and pasteing without siteing who you used it from,

  7. XD nice one~I guess i’ll have to agree with that XD
    in school, still in school >__> almost fell asleep in theory just now,
