has anyone ever actually done one of those term paper sites online? ive been looking at a couple. Im not doing it to be lazy, but i literally have 4 papers, 3 assignments, and an exam that i have to work on at, well, the exact same time. If you have used one, which one, and was it good, and worth it? I relaly wanna know before i pay big money, and potentially get screwed by it for plagarism or something.....please let me know 3/25/2007 9:22:34 PM |

It's better actually to search for a paper (I know oppapers.com has a few) and read through them and get ideas - I've been lazy before and just picked up 2-3 papers on the same topic, which were free, and read through them and rewrote it, in my own words, yet using the ideas. That isnt necessarily plagiarism, and saves money and time. 3/25/2007 9:31:45 PM |

Sounds like a ENG-252 assignment...If you're in Stivers class, that paper has been assigned for a month.

^^^^ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism
"Plagiarism is the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work"
When you take topics, and apply them in your work, its not plagiarism. I take a single idea, or subject from works, and use them as a guide, I don't copy, I don't use their words, I use my own. You take the paper, you read it and you throw it away. You never copy words out of it. It's just like taking a book and reading it and writing a book report. You get the ideas from the book, right? Well this is just outside sources that you get IDEAS from, not their thoughts or beliefs, but your own.
You can't tell me that people don't do this every day. I mean journalists take ideas from other papers and books, but turn it into their own work.
Theres a way to rewrite and a way that you copy.

Quote : | "I take a single idea, or subject from works, and use them as a guide" |
If you take someone's ideas and use them without crediting that person it is plagiarism. It doesn't matter if you re-phrase them into your own words. They are still someone else's thoughts.
The difference between a book report and what you are doing is that in the book report you give credit to the author of the book. "I thought the character represented this, that, and the other. This quote "yada-yada-yada" on page 235432 supports this view."

Well, in all honestly, this is partyl my fault, letting a couple of these pile up....but, all 4 of the assignments are assigned on a weekly basis. Two of the papers were assigned last week, or these phases of them. And truth be told, the obesity one i can hold off on, but if turned in early...theres extra credit assigned that i want......i never realized id get a bunch of crap for wanting to find something out.......no wonder im a senior and have never bothered with this tww crap before.... 3/25/2007 10:03:10 PM |

majority maybe.
try grad school and working part time (or working full time for that matter) and you'll learn time management.
just prioritize, knock them out in chunks, and learn from the experience. most professors have software to catch plagiarism now and any term paper you can buy online will be in there. 3/25/2007 11:33:08 PM |

Yall talk so much shit about Paul Cousins. I had to talk to him on the phone sophomore year for a drinking ticket i got during the hillsborough hike and i thought he was extremely nice and fair He wanted to help me get out of the situation i was in. In reality he is probably a much more down to earth and caring person than any of you. 3/26/2007 12:28:43 PM |

Do any of y'all actually think that any of your ideas are completely original?
But seriously, quit posting on a message board and browsing the internent for the easy way out... get that ass in gear, write a crappy paper, quit bitching, turn the thing in, get a so-so grade, and not have to worry at all about plagarism. 3/26/2007 7:08:03 PM |

Boo-hoo somebody wants to cheat!!!
I'm gonna cry & get angry!!!!
If somebody wants to plagiarize/cheat, then let them.... No harm to you. And your posting about your opposition about it is as meaningless as this post of mine saying that your post is meaningless.
And as far as writing pointless papers in pointless classes, I say if you can get away with doing 30 mins worth of plagiarism as opposed to a few days of actual work... then you my friend are efficient, and not necessarily a bad person. 3/27/2007 11:42:09 AM |

get the fuck off of tww and get your work done. if you plan out your work in blocks of 2-3 hours and schedule 10-20 minute study breaks intermittently, you can get a lot done.

if you knowingly let something pile up, it is more than partly your fault. you could've worked on the parts that were assigned last week. Do the ones that are most important now (i.e. due soonest), then worry about extra credit. You will always get crap when you want to find out how to plagiarize. Maybe you would be much better off without tww.3/27/2007 12:40:32 PM |
