3. if you are going to copy, cite your copied stuff, it makes it less ilegal and a bit smarter (only if you know how to cite things

Answer 1

It must be for a lot of people, looking at some answers that I've seen. If you wanted the textbook answer, you'd google yourself, right? That and answering the same thing as 50 people already have said. I mean, I know that sometimes a couple people will be typing at the same time, but when it's only a yes/no question, yeesh! Sorry, hijacked your rant! Anyways, I guess those people just want to either look smart, or just get the 2 points. Personally, I try to stick to answering questions I know something about, or have an opinion on. Copyright infringement? Probably. Annoying? Definitely!

Answer 2

If train attorney most likely could fill couple of pages with all their crap. If trained Journalist, most likely fill few with stuff they had to learn. Address what person is asking. Sorry couldn't for part of your question. If you known answer and don't want to invest time to give it, than steer person in direction that will help them. Love opinion political questions.

Answer 3

Being kind of picky aren't you? i mean here someone goes to the trouble to look up an answer for you then you get mad because they copy and pasted? That makes no sense. If you didn't want someone to do that then why not look it up yourself?

Answer 5

i know i hate when pple do that....the only time i do it is when pple ask if their sign matches w. another sign and i just paste a summary of the answer because its really helpful and it makes them shut up but i guess i should have told them where to find it rather then doing it for them.....ooops

Answer 6

I hate people doing that. I only answer questions that I know the answer to.

Answer 7

Geez. At least they go through the trouble to do that much. Instead of getting a one-word answer like "no."

Answer 8

No, but I am capable of deceiving myself and other's opinion help balance my truth.
