Question

THIS IS A MAJOR QUESTION

Answer 1

What Is cheating really on this website ! You know How many kids ask for help and people Just GIVE them the answer and walk away lol like ok everything's done ....like I don't get so what is REALLY CONSIDERED CHEATING ON THIS WEBSITE?

Answer 2

This is supposed to be a tutoring site. Where we all HELP each other. But I have to agree with you about people just giving answers. There is a lot of that on this site. However, don't forget, there are the honest people on this website that tutor you and answer any questions you might have. That is what this site is supposed to be about. I do occasionally give answers, mostly in the history section, but in the math section, I tutor the best I can. So all that I can say to you is " if you don't like the site, then why are you on it " ?

Answer 3

Because I'm sick of kids getting suspended BECAUSE their simply helping there classmate LIKE hello people In that case call the website ONLY SHOW PEOPLE HOW THEY CAN GET THE ANSWER ! Like if this is OPEN STUDY ..what if some Kids study by getting the answer themselves and then telling the other person like HELLO that how they study

Answer 4

Well SMARTY call THE WEB SITE OPEN TUTOR ! On the website its pretty clear people don't really follow the rules ..Im on the website cause IM ABLE TO CONNECT WITH KIDS IN MY SCHOOL so i can help them

Answer 5

Some people also go on here answering and explaining questions as a review for themselvs. And why do you realy care, if your gonna be mad about something get a blog or be mad about something that matters

Answer 6

I commend you for wanting to help the kids in your school. I like to help fellow students with their work as they will help me with mine. There is tutoring on this site as well as the occasional " answer giving ". I believe the rules are sometimes broken.....I have been suspended before for giving answers and not explaining. So basically what your asking is "why are there rules if the people are not gonna follow them " ? What about your school ? People break rules in your school and they get punishments for it. And on this site, if you break rules you get punished (suspended) for it. Thats just how it is.

Answer 7

Well @kelliegirl33 you pretty much solved my major question thanks

Answer 8

@stabar Im not mad at all I was just asking a question and putting my opinions out there !! I don't know if I should start a blog ....but thanks for your suggestion ..It mattered to me because today on two different post two different people commented saying pretty much are you cheating? why are you cheating? without really reading what was posted on that question ..and I just don't have time for people to be accusing or assuming when they don't have enough evidence to do that ...I enjoy this little website I really do but if people expect for there rules to be followed I expect for them to follow their rules as well when it comes to their job ...

Answer 9

oh..ok Just by all the caps and the "!!!" It looks like it was supost to be shouting

Answer 10

Lol yeah they were shouting LoL but in reality Im not really shouting at the computer screen just a little expression so my point can get a across ...

Answer 11

There is no "other" definition of cheating...
Definition:
1) Deceive somebody: to deceive or mislead somebody, especially for personal advantage
2) Break rules to gain advantage: to break the rules in a game, examination, or contest, in an attempt to gain an unfair advantage

Honestly... No one really get suspended unless they give out all the answers with no work or just copying an answer key and such...

People must understand, if you cheat... You cheat yourself out of an education people would KILL for in undeveloped countries.
Don't get me started by in Malaysia, it's fierce competition to see who's the best. I remember something that shocked me... When I was living in Malaysia, people tried there hardest just to understand there homework. They would try to get perfect marks... While in America, they have things called completion grade? You do the homework and you get points for just doing it... Firstly. That is so dumb. The teaching system in America needs to be revised, honestly! In Malaysia we have something called partial credit. You automatically have a 70% if you did the homework. And each time you get a question correct you get to add on to that percentage.
Now don't get me wrong. I've cheated... But honestly, is writing formulas on your hand worse the just copying question like you've seen? Since I only copy the formula I still understand on what and how to do it. Honestly after that I go back home and try to learn to remember the formula. Doesn't anyone fear the SAT/ACT exams? Without those you're most likely to not get into a good college.

So basically if anyone is cheating why care. They're CHEATING themselves out of something that is needed for basic life. But honestly if there not will to put in hard effort, who cares. At lest some hard working people will get GOOD paying jobs.

Honestly if this offends anyone... Sorry? But listen cheating is never good. Nothing good comes out from cheating.

Nothing. Ever. Comes. Out. Good. From. Cheating.

Anyway this should probably be put in the OpenStudy Feedback section?
