Sorry but it is only an idea
|

I know this subject has gone on and on for a long time but here is an idea. If someone steals a worksheet and puts it on this site. How about the culprit paying for the crime by producing their own worksheet for FREE or be banned from the site? What do you think? |

It is impossible (and, IMHO, wrong) for us to force someone to do something. Sorry. |

Everything is up to Victor, isn �t it? We can �t make any rules. |

Too difficult, IMHO. BTW I doubt someone who steals wss would be willing to share his own for free.

I think current policy is 3 strikes, and you �re out. It is possible to make a mistake. I also believe that most people caught outright stealing something move on to easier marks. |

3 strikes and out- is the optimum for the webmaster to manage, it also works for some people, bc they do come back with a different attitude. However, even the cancellation of the account doesn �t stop some cheaters from cheating. I �ve seen people going to the trouble of taking the content from other users and modifying the layout and still uploading it as their work, and then almosts right away after being banned they come back and register under a different username. In some forums repeat offender �s IP gets blocked and they are permantly banned from the page. But then again there are dynamic IP, e.i. they change every time you reboot... so 3 strikes and out would do, I guess  Sophia |

Sorry. | | Why be sorry Douglas it should not be impossible to ask someone not force. they are putting their copy on a good site and expecting something in return. I must differ with you buddy and stick to my original comment. |

@looky-Rereading your comment, I now see the "or" statement--I guess that would be possible, just more work for Victor (the 3 strikes rule pretty much runs automatically). (thanks fo rthe compliment too) |
