Looks like Taddo won't be on Armchair for a long time. Blatant plagiarism of an ESPN article listing the top 10 free agents. Give a look:


The original article that was updated in February

The plagiarized article.

I think the best approach upon discovery of plagiarism is to notify an admin.

I respectfully disagree, Steel Town. The admins don't make all the decisions around here. That is why I believe we should notify a founder before an admin (or anyone else for that matter) does ANYTHING...

Banning a user hours into him signing up is one thing. But banning a user who has had a piss poor history since he got there and then plagiarized on a very serious subject is another thing.

I think we should delete this article also. There is no reason to publicly stone this person.

I'm sorry, but plagiarizing is plagiarizing is plagiarizing. Any case should be made public but in this guy's case it won't be for a ban.

Uh no, a welcome message that gives out warnings...no. A separate page for that is different though.

Well, we could give each user 2 messages. Something welcoming the user, and then something about how serious plagiarism is at AGM... How's that?
