It's there choice. It isn't plagiarism if they sold them the usage rights.

no support, sorry.

Usage rights?
It's plagiarism to use someones work and claim it as your own.

Farcast said: ↑

People take the place of more talented individuals all the time; it's called a racial quota, all universities do it. Is that really fair?

No support.

And you think it should be pushed further by allowing people who cannot write for shit to use an experienced writers work to further themselves above others via use of money?

If you needed an 10k word essay or something like that and you had NO idea how to do it, what would you do? I would use someone on here, but that is just my opinion. I think that they are doing good helping people who need help with their homework. No support, sorry.

How do you have no idea how to WRITE? You'd have to be mentally retarded to not have the ability to write. A topic is given to you so you can write, if you don't know about the topic, you have the internet for sources. Using Wikipedia and other sites like that can greatly educate you on any topic. Also read below about "helping people"

I completely agree with this, although, It really depends on the type of paper being written. Maybe disallow final or term papers to be written, and only helped?

I somewhat agree, but honestly, any type of paper can help further someone with the use of money. Some essays actually may be pushed by the teachers to a scholarship entry, and as nice as it seems for that person, you have to keep in mind that if they cannot write for shit, and they go to college via someones work under their belt, they're going to fail college. Do we want to encourage people to steal work and fail later in life, or do we want to help these people by making them do their own work, and possibly getting a lower grade, but learning from it?

You're a perfect example of my above paragraph. Learn some English, maybe by writing essays on your own, instead of using others. You're making yourself look like a dipshit with that message.

If someone is happy to pay for an essay and someone is happy to write the essay for the agreed amount I don't see a problem other than the morality of it. No support.

It's not just morality, it's the fact that the person can fail later in life due to lack of writing skills, or due to the fact that they cannot steal someone elses work for such tests as the ACT or SAT essay portions, which ultimately determine which college you'll be able to go to.

Farcast said: ↑

Why give us a lecture on morality when we don't really care? That's all well and good that you do not want to cheat, that's your perogative. Don't take part in it. If you're so against cheating then you really shouldn't be on this site to begin with.

No support, it's their paper they can sell it. No matter what type of content it is, it's basically like selling a guide if you think about it, except the person buying is turning it in as their own work.

No it's not, it's plagiarizing. Also read my above responses about the determents of this.

If you want to take the risk then go for it. No one is forcing you to use anyones services.

No one is forcing you, but people may decide to use this without thinking about the possible endgame of their choice, since this is after all a runescape site. They don't realize that not writing their own essays can effect the college they get into (SAT and ACT essays aren't simple and do need some writing experience, which a person who bought their essays does not have).

The Legit Shop said: ↑

no support. I see no valid point in not allowing it besides the fact that its immoral to some people.
Click to expand...

You don't see a valid point?
User A is in college.
User A is lazy, and does not want to write a paper.
User A asks User B to write a paper.
User B, wanting some fast money decides to find a paper on the internet about the topic.
User B sells User A a paper found on the internet
User A turns it into the professor.
User A is expelled from college for plagiarism of work
User A looses all scholarships/payments/etc.

Pretty sure that's a valid point.

No support. If I had an impossible essay to write, I'd ask someone to do it for me.

Read above responces.

Jman17 said: ↑

Vouches should not be allowed for this service...

However, if someone is willing to write an essay for someone else, I would not consider that plagiarism. They are getting paid, anyway... (in most cases, some are voluntary)

Also, I bet the person getting paid doesn't give two shits if their work is being 'plagiarized' anyway. They wouldn't do it in that case.

Swarm said: ↑

No one is forcing them to use there services. Such as buying digital gold you know the repercussions of paying someone to write you a paper. Its not sythes job to control such.

And Sythe should be somewhat concerned about his site being used for plagiarism, seeing as it could cause some people to loose all of their college tuition, or be punished severely. This isn't a good practice to have on a site with a lot of young people.

They can do what they like. I don't agree with it, however it's not an illegal thing and they can do what they want.

Read my response to "Legit Shop" and see if you want to still condone this behavior.
