    Idiot? Oh so I'm an idiot for not supporting plagiarism? Well, excuse me for taking my privacy and my work seriously.

    And using the word snitch doesn't make you immature per se, but it does make you look like a mobster wannabe who thinks he can be part of the "family" because he's seen an episode of The Sopranos.

    That said, being completely incapable of using proper spelling and grammar when you're at a university level of education, makes you look like a complete moron. Sure, not capitalizing words and missing some commas and periods here and there isn't really that much of an issue, but when you're literally butchering and hacking away at words, even the simplest of words like "you" or "your", then you really have a problem. Couple that with your apparent ok-ness with slacking off and ripping answers off of people who actually work for them, then I'm pretty certain that you fall into the category of deadbeat tools.

    this here is an example of number 3.

    A bigger pansy but instead of just sand in his vagina, it's a whole beach.

    I recommend buying a few douches from your local supermarket and cleaning that bad boy out before it becomes infected.

    There is definitely something offputting about squealing at the slightest opportunity. It's rooted more in aggression and petty spitefulness, than in some high-minded sense of academic justice. It's one thing to stop someone from looking at your paper, it's another to get high and mighty about it. One is reasonable, the other is an excuse to act righteous, and to tear someone else down. Yes, it's their own fault. But no, you don't have to be a part of it.

    Wow. I'm not sure what kind of society you were raised in, but snitching on someone is just one of those things that you don't do.
    Nah, that depends. If you saw someone killing another person, would you snitch on them to the police?

    That depends, if he looks like he's part of a gang and you testify against him, he just might have his friends take care of you for snitching. In which case it's better you pretend you didn't see anything. On the other hand, it wouldn't really be fair to the guy that got killed.

    So in short, unless you're going to get screwed over somehow, probably just leave it be. Especially if he looks like the thug type with lots of "friends" and if he looks petty enough to take revenge.

    Does he look like a punk? If he does, better not mess with them. Punks and gangstas want revenge. But then again, that depends if he'll know that you're the one that ratted him out on it.

    Sum up the thread.

    Snitching on the cheater is bad.
    Not snitching on the cheater is bad.
    So not taking any action (ie. I don't give a shit) is bad, but ratting the cheater out is equally bad.

    Frankly, karma is not going to bite the cheater in the ass, it hardly ever happens.

    Want to call out the person cheating? Go ahead. I'm neither for nor against it. If it doesn't make any difference in my mark, I don't give a damn, if the class was curved, I'm calling the SOB out. If society was built based on those who do not intervene when the unethical actions are being committed, it's pure anarchy.

    Life is a zero-sum game. It's depressing, but its the truth. I'd rather be called a "snitch" than be lower on the curve... or get expelled for not reporting cheating. Even, if there aren't any consequences I would still report him, why? Because that way I'd just lost another competitor.

    I agree. But, blatantly copying my entire test is not "slightest opportunity". That's gross plagarism. I'm not saying to tell the professor when I see people discussing homework on Facebook. Yet obviously copying my test is something largely different.

    this is probably the best thread here

    I would have told the professor as I handed in my test, and if I saw the kid later, I would have kicked the shit out of him. Fuck cheaters. Seriously. How would you feel if it was between you and that fucking cheater a year down the road fighting for the same job. Mind boggling how some of you fail to see the importance. If he was taking a risk to cheat then, hes probably cheated MANY times.

    i would just have wrote some fake answers and changed it later. That would have screwed him over and if he tries to call you out then you can fir back at him and confirm that he was cheating...

    At which point it would be your word against his.
