So how about posting your paper here?
it is ten pages of dull hairloss treatments. the last 2-3 pages were from crazy.irish.celt(i think that was his name) his post "How I got over it" that was my closing statement.

Im insecure about my writing anyways so no thanks not posting it :D


Dude... you came here and asked for help with this, then took excerpts from another member's post, and you refuse to post it??..... Not sure I get that one. I also hope that you asked the Celt if it was OK to use his statements before you made them part of your paper.


I would assume that he at least gave attribution of the source in his paper--othErwise PLAGIARISM,  and at least when I was writing papers for school credit that was a big no-no.

that was the first thing I did was ask him If I could use his post in my paper, he said yes. So I did, and there was no plagiarism. Plagiarism is presenting someone elses words as your own, which I did not due. I cited the resources in my research paper. thankyou for your concerns though

My concern wasn't pagiarism.... I figured that since it was a graded paper you would follow proper course.

My concern was that someone else might not be happy about their words being used if they didn't permit it.

I appreciate that, and I was not receiving it as so, I was merely addressing your concerns. I got a poor grade on the paper, and its not very good work for me personally, I have a very high standard for my writing, and this does not meet it. If you wanted to read the paper I apologize but I do not feel comfortable posting it.

All the information used from this site was with the expressed permission of the provider (in this case being crazy.irish.celt) I used his post as my closing statement, The read overall is dull, full of statistics, and various treatments. Trust me you aren't missing about by not reading this one.
