An extract from the rules :
"Don �t use the forum to advertise your
worksheets or other users � worksheets. (You can do it if another
member
asks for a specific content or topic)."

My most humble apologies if I �m wrong, but hasanjabr �s comment must be a shill?
As Blunderbuster said, the forum is not for advertising your own worksheets.

Sulekra,
A shill? Please explain SHILL.
Those two will soon learn that advertising your own worksheets is not the done thing. |

It �s not a common word but a shill is (from the dictionary)
1. a
person
who
publicizes
or
praises
something
or
someone
for
reasons
of
self-interest,
personal
profit,
friendship
or
loyalty.
2.
a
person
who
poses
as
a
customer
in
order
to
decoy
others
into
participating, eg. at an auction.
Can also be a verb...
It was very suspicious how quickly the second comment popped up supporting and praising the rulebreakers, but again apologies if I �m wrong.

Aaah - such an interesting word - thank you
Can we apply this word to people who do our students� assignments/homework for them? |

Probably not for students who do the homework, but an example could be if a student gives a bad presentation, but all his friends praise him and cheer him on hoping he will get a better mark than he deserves, and that he will reciprocate when it �s their turn:)
Blunderbuster �s Ebay example is perfect, when the seller has a second account to help bid the price up, or when someone is selling a house and get �s friends to push the price up by bidding. Ebay is very good at stopping this type of shilling at virtual auctions, but it �s more difficult at real auctions...
