Man, this is quite possibly the MOST moronic discussion I've ever
seen. You want doctoral theses? Go to the LIBRARY, idiot! You
want essays with grades and grade explanations? GO TO THE LIBRARY!
Man, if you people think this is novel in any way besides the fact
that it's on the internet, you're WRONG. You can go to any library
or bookstore and pick up thousands of essays on thousands of
subjects, with explanations of their strong and weak points, and
in some cases the grade given.
Censor the internet for this? What a fucking stupid idea. I don't
suppose you knew that many frat/sorority houses keep TESTS on file?
It's not illegal, it just means they're too stupid to do well on
their own.
You want essays? I've received A's in courses ranging from Philosophy
to Sociology to Neuroscience, etc. I'll be happy to upload any "A"
grade essays I have. If you actually USE them, it's plagiarism, and
you can be kicked out of school for it if they find out. If, on the
other hand, you just want to get some ideas, there's absolutely
NOTHING wrong with using other people's essays.
Quite frankly, I am astounded that this discussion is even here.
The person who invented the site is stupid for suggesting that people
put their educational careers on the line by plagiarizing, and the
person who thought it was an abomination that ought to be censored
either has his head up his ass or was just born yesterday.
Geeeze...
