I have a question wrote:
Lemmie wrote:Why should I mind? At this point tom's and my documentation and the relevant discussion thereof are buried so deep in someone's derailing by personal crisis and rule-breaking "f*** you" strategy that it can't possibly matter. It would be easier at this point to move the on-topic posts.


That posters Agenda, as you rightly point out, was to drown the thread in personal drama drivel.

Don’t give it up Lemmie.

I just reported this post. I’m sick of your personal attacks.
So you're chasing around a fly and in your world, I'm the idiot?

Lemmie wrote:I could start a new thread entitled Documentation from 'DCP's ongoing problem with plagiarism,' and request in the OP that posting there be reserved only for documentation. I could leave a link to the other thread, noting further discussion can be continued there.

I think copying over rather than moving over the documentation would accomplish the purpose without disrupting legitimate conversations here, of course with various posters retaining the right on the new thread to edit out stuff related to any other conversation if they want to.

If I recall correctly documentation has come from Tom, Everybody Wang Chung, myself, and Doc, and possibly a few others. I also don't mind copying over documentation of related plagiarism cases and posts of BYU and other's academic policies as that gives context.

How about I start the thread, and then I'll start by sending some links to Shades to be copied over.

I’ll commit to staying completely out of that thread as long as no one personally attacks me.

What makes you think anyone is going to personally attack you on a thread intended to store documentation or can you not actually read the post above that you're replying to?

She's creating an archive of sorts. What has that got to do with personally attacking you?

You want the transfer to be limited to documentation only, correct?

It seems to me that this is an unhealthy relationship.

Yeah - All it needs now is few GIF's and 2 or 3 pictures of a whale and it will be good to go! I'll see what I can do. :smile:

mostly, but links to BYU honor code, and factual quotes and/or links to other plagiarism cases at BYU are pertinent.
