[VOTE] Board Policy - Plagarism

Post by CmdrWilkens »

The following to be added to the Board Rules:
No Plagiarism: We also take a very dim view on intellectual dishonesty. Do not, under any circumstances, claim another person's work as your own. This applies to reference materials, written work, music, photography, and art generated both outside and inside the board. If you plagiarize, you will get caught, and we will deal with you harshly.
Please see the discussion thread

This is a Category A vote, with 51 "active" Senators the quorum is 26 and passage will require a 60% Super Majority.

American Conservatism is about the exercise of personal responsibility without state interference in the lives of the citizenry..... unless, of course, it involves using the bludgeon of state power to suppress things Conservatives do not like.

I strongly support this addition to the rules.

Hmmm... I think this one has passed.

EDIT: Actually, it would appear to require one more.

30.6 so yes it would require 31 votes to make it a 60% sure vote(60.07!)

Yes #31.
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

A 60% Supermajority of all active voters was reached. I have amended the new posting rules with the Plagiarism policy. I have placed it as PR4, right below the "Be Honest" rule.
