Just my personal opinion, it's plagiarism. Two people may have the same thought but it is unlikely (nearly impossible) to describe the thought in the same exact words in one place. And from his post history, before voting
he never wrote the word "1xbit", which means there is no supporting reason for the vote given (unless he has an implied reason).
Thanks, I think I'll send a report to his post. Let's see what the moderator decides.
I've gone through a few of these and on the count of the quite above, non of these guys as presented by Lovesmayfamilis, all these guys are defaulters and guilty of the plagiarism rule and as such, its only expected that the rule applies. I might seem to understand why the forum tries to handle these newbies or beilginners with some tenderness and give a temporal ban but I say this, it makes no difference from a permanent ban and I think the permanent ban is much more effective.
When these newbies arr given a permanent ban, it sends a direct message on how strict is the forums stands on this rule. With the rules being clearly stated in the pinned post, ignorance is not much of an excuse. Most of all, when these users gets a banned, they still go about creating alts of which, they are very much aware of what would become of there alt should they plagiarise. It only takes the foolish once to be follow the same part and not expect the same harhness.
Perhaps the moderators have there reasons for which, it could be let known to ensure clarity and so, those taking up this course to ensure the purification of the forum and that the rules are adhered to would be at peace that they aren't doing these things for nothing. Forum rules comes first and enforcing it is what would give the forum its integrity.
