    Oldbayrunner:
    m sorry guy but it sure takes a lot hutzpah to absolutely plagariaze someone elses penned teachings by changing a few words pass it off as your own on here and on your profile blog. You should be ashamed of yourself and apologize to the original poster and true person that penned this as well as the community as a whole. Had you have given kudos to the original poster and author then this would not be an issue in most peoples eyes and it's not too late to do that and save yourself some face.

    I don't think he even changed anything. He just copied and pasted Niv's original post.

     

    He changed the middle Paragraph where Nivlac gave kudos to another member by taking out that persons name and plagariazed the rest passing it off word for word as his writing it.

    What's even more making me grit my teeth is the fact he's posting this crap on new players walls passing it off as his teachings. I am refraining and restraining myself from posting anything on his and the others walls regarding this plagariazation. I will let the Mods handle this in their own manner. I've had my say so nuff said.

    Nah, I don't think I could get away with it.  :-D

    He may have just found out how the "copy-paste method" works. Too bad,  he failed to copy the name of the original author.  ...this is such a lame act to do, worst than sandbagging perhaps. lol

    It's great that your "analysis" includes nivlac's original write up, and fabulous (I am indeed honored) that it also includes my spreadsheet http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/38780.aspx

    You should, however, separate your original contribution from the source material. And attribute your source material. Avoids that "plagiarist" tag and all, doncha know.

    SorryThreespot...I didn;t know he took your material also or would have given you mention also...Take a look at his blog page and also he passes this off on other newer members walls too. What a shame, this is not right.

    He also has it in this thread

    I don't know who came up with what, first.  I do know that plagiarism is a crime.

    Nivlac did. No question. This is an outright theft of his and 3spots' efforts. Plagiarism personified.
