I think that the people reading this thread can easily determine who the fool is. I am just surprised that you actually dragged this tread up again.
Maybe if you actually posted the source, and read the copyright notice and terms of use of the source material you wouldn't be in this mess.
Maybe if you didn't say things like "My list", "possible I missed a few", "I wasn't sure", which are phrases that are not in the source document, you wouldn't have looked like a plagerizer.
When you source documents, using phrases like "Found again", "Found this" are not adequate. When you wrote your book report in elementry school did your bibliography look like this:
1. Found it.
2. Found again
3. Found this.
4. Found book.
How are we to determine what was "Found". It could easily mean that you Found the spells yourself.
Next time don't post content in whole that is clearly copyright, if you do post the complete work at least mention the source when you do. It is okay to post small sections when it is relevent to the point you are trying to make, this is "fair use". Typically this is a paragraph or two however, not pages worth of material.
As this is a message board you don't have to site all of your sources, but don't try to pass other people's work off as your own.
Mess? lol Yeah, big mess I'm in! lol
I never stated it was or tried to pass it off as mine. As you've seen in my other threads where I also stated I found them on other boards, I'm not one to pass off other people's work. This is an internet forum, not school btw.
Anyone with enough brains should know this was "found" somewhere else on another board. It wasn't copyrighted where I "found" it. So again, how was I to know it was copyrighted in the first place? I stated "Found again:" Notice the
":" Maybe you're the one that needs to go back to elementary school because you can't even spell elementary!
much less plagiarizer.
Sorry, for trying to help out this board, as I seen it really needed it.
