Best Posts in Thread: The Real Hornemans Exposed: Hornemans Helper App Plagiarism

Hornemans plagiarized a decent sized portion of his application from two different sources. For example:

From http://www.support4change.com/index...catid=51:poems-to-express-yourself&Itemid=207: "But just who am I?," you ask. "How can I describe myself? I experience the world and my place in it through all of my senses. I see, hear, feel, touch, smell, and taste something every day. I have hope and desires, worries and certainties. How can I put all that together and say 'I am this' or 'I am that?' "

From http://www.askamanager.org/2014/08/open-thread-august-8-2014.html: In addition to being flexible and responsive, I’m also a fanatic for details – particularly when it comes to presentation. One of my recent projects involved coordinating a 200-page grant proposal: I proofed and edited the narratives provided by the division head, formatted spreadsheets, and generally made sure every line was letter-perfect and that the entire finished product conformed to the specific guidelines of the RFP. (The result? A five-year, $1.5 million grant award.) I believe in applying this same level of attention to detail to tasks as visible as prepping the materials for a top-level meeting and as mundane as making sure the copier never runs out of paper.

Hornemans almost completely copied these passages. He didn't even take the time to put it into his own words. Is this someone that we want to be a helper?

(Bob4444444 and Worena_Ravenclaw originally found these cases of plagiarism, I'm not going to plagiarize their efforts , this thread is just to bring more attention to the issue and expose hornemans for who he is)

@Hornemans, anything to say?

 

The ironic thing about this post is that you're copying another post by Skaros on a thread about plagiarism...

 

I'm currently slaving away writing a 10,000 word dissertation, taking great pains not to fall foul of plagiarism guidelines, and this guy does it on a helper app for a Minecraft server?

Not gonna lie, best thing I read all day.

 

@Hornemans

You child.

 

i guess a name change may be in order
@Hornemans
ill gaurd your money while you get yourself a new identity

 

PRAISE THE LORD, IT WAS DENIED.

After reading his introduction, I felt like something was off, but I didn't think he'd stoop as low as
plagiarizing- then I saw @Bob4444444's post. Plugged it into Google and found it right away. GG man.

If you're going to use that, cite your sources. A good number of us have been through 7th-8th grade English and were taught to cite any outside sources to anything we used in our work.

It was really quite easy.

Horne has the brain of a 9 year old so this is what his sentences are usually like:

I Like working for servers and I have experience And stuff!

Not

I like working for servers and I have experience in the position.

In his app, he failed to demonstrate his actual typing. And I'll give credit where credit is due. When @Nerf958 said it looked copied and pasted, I did my research.

So anyways, Horne should be banned, since this is a real world illegal offense.

I came back from the dead to congratulate Old_Pink as the sexiest person on this server.

Of course Old_Pink would report something like this! lol!
