Op, I want to let you understand that there is no rigid rule about plagiarism. I always tell other members of this forum that there is no rigid rule here. This is a forum of liberty just like Bitcoin.
Can you tell me how many rules do you think are not rigid out of the 33 rules
listed here??
I think you misunderstood what uchegod is saying. Plagiarism is plagiarism be it a single line copied or a wall of text without reference, the punishment is the same. It’s true that the rules for plagiarism is different for each person and are handled case by case. It’s believed
from this thread that moderators are becoming lenient than before to newbies committing plagiarism.
