I didn't know much about the rules in the form when you told me about the post, so I posted it by mistake.
It's advisable to read the forum rules, but plagiarism is an act which is frowned upon in any educational discussion group as it steals others work and attempts to get credit for it, so one does not really need to read the forum rules to know that. The excuse of, 'I didn't know it broke the rule' doesn't really fly.
Newbies should read this
thread and the included links.
