One, who I directed here, was presenting work stolen from a popular TV show I don't watch.
Plus, you can always go back, after you've been critiqued, and edit the post with your work.
I don't believe in Hell, but there's a special fate reserved for plagiarizers.
Right next to the guys looking for lap dances...
The plagiarist would be stomped into little stompy pieces.
Well now, it's a chance you have to take if you want honest feedback. I've had a few members read my books but they've also sent me their books in return. All were long-time members so I tended to trust them.
One thing you can do is keep their comments and information on your computer or print it out, with the date. That's your proof that someone worked on your books, and I'm sure the other reviewers would step forward to back you up.
From Tom Leher:
Plagiarize,
Let no one else's work evade your eyes,
Remember why the good Lord made your eyes,
So plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize.
Except, of course, be sure and call it, "research."
(From memory.)
I have a list of 5 rules I follow on a daily basis. #3 is "Don't piss off Medievalist."
The list serves me well.
I am also too damn lazy to cheat at anything. Can't keep my life straight as it is, so you couldn't pay me enough to have to pay attention to whom I've told what. Sounds like a nightmare.
I yam what I yam, warts, scars, cliches and all. It's better than the alternative.
Actually, if you take from enough different sources it doesn't hardly count. A number of popular movies have taken this approach.
