Not a bad idea, I'm just not sure how many of them would know/understand the meaning of the word ' plagiarism.' Referring to people that usually get banned for it. Perhaps dumb it down to 'copy/pasting'?
However, I don't think it will stop them from trying to cheat, the worst case scenario is that they all use text spinning tools and become even harder to detect.
- Copying and Pasting posts in the forum and parts of an article is not allowed without citing or quoting the original source
- Simply changing the words of another one's post is not allowed either
The two instances I gave above are the most common ways how members do plagiarism here in the forum. Reminding them that what they will do is not allowed should be enough to scare a lot of them off.
