Then you'd better have a link to support your claim. Otherwise, your post might be deleted and you might be banned. I wanted to give you a warning. Feel free to express your belief in a more constructive manor while posting on topic. That would be great, but I think enough crazy shit happens in the real world that you guys need to start giving not only a little bit more benefit of the doubt, but maybe consider you might be wrong.

Anyhow, the other reason for not accusing, without evidence, that something is copied and pasted from elsewhere is that you can still talk about the subject even if its a complete lie! Just because something isn't real doesn't mean you can't have something to say about it besides, "this can't possibly be real." My response to that is, you couldn't possibly be more dull.

On a final note, if something is copy and pasted somewhere else, rather than posting such, pm a moderator. I'm not going to see your post if I don't read the thread, and I would have seen the thread earlier if you had pm'd me.

something I've been meaning to write for a while now...

Accusing copy pasta is pointless anyway, unless the person claims it's his work.

None the less I don't see why people post in threads they consider to be copy pasta to begin with. If you've seen it before and dislike it, move the fuck on and let it die. You don't need to help it stay alive with your dumbdickery.

Yeah, that how to commit suicide thread which I've seen 1,000,000,000 times was alive for quite some time, just because dumbasses decided to post "LOL SEEN DIS BE4."

I've seen this before, I call copy pasta.

Seriously though, when someone copies an argument or story from another website or such, without actually mentioning it's not theirs, it's like they're taking it as their own, and that just doesn't sit right with me.

Conversely, when someone says a topic is plagiarized, but fails to mention from where, it takes merit away from that statement.

So yeah, I'm for this. It's quite annoying when someone calls a decent story/argument copy pasta without proof.

Usually it is because they are not used to semi-intelligent to intelligent things unless they see it from a book, another person, or anything. People who use "Copy Pasta" like that are not used to original ideas.

Both ways. I've always banned people who copy and paste shit from other places, but I'm also going to ban users for spouting "this is copy pasta." Its not that I've never done this before, this isn't new, I've just seen far too much of it lately and thought, hey why not give them a warning instead of banning and see if they get the message?

THIS IS FOR ALL OF YOOOUUUUU! <3

On what other forum would you actually get banned posting something as innocuous as "copy pasta".

It's ludicrous, no wonder this place is so shit.

That's what happens when you give power hungry, sociopathic college kids e-authority, though.

Copy Pasta!

Link for proof!

I know terrible joke, but I had to throw one in. Still not a bad rule, people should show their proof in disproving someone else's statements.

Knowing the same stories and jokes reoccur really makes it pretty useless to acuse one of copying and pasting. This entire forum is based off of plagarism.

It's hard to find proof of something that's copy and pasted because most of the time, its original source will have been deleted years ago.
