My Dear Friends,

I Would Like To Apologise For Plagirism. That Said...I Would Also Like To Clear That My Intention Was Always Ernest. Never Ever Was It Maligned.

I Have Not Run Away...

I Was At The Hospital For My TB Checks & Frozen Shoulder Therapy Again. It Has Gone Bad To Worse.

Please Know...I Have A Lot In My Mind & Heart to Share But Not The Fingers To Write Much. A Frozen Shoulder Is Not What I Ever Wished To Have.

Please Let Me Know If I Would Be Still Welcomed Here Lest I Would Be Grateful To The Administrator To Unsubscribe Me.

Hope I Have Made Myself Clear To All. I Am Not A Bad Guy...Just Got Certain Issues About My Life. It Is Not Such A Bed Of Roses...

I Am Not A Bad Guy...Just Got Certain Issues About My Life. It Is Not Such A Bed Of Roses...

Booobooo, NOBODY said you were a bad guy!
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. That does not grant us license to copy-paste with abandon, and not even mention where we got it from; or worse, to pass it off as our own experience.
Primarily, it is our own trips, opinions, trepidations and aspirations that we share here. They do not have to be current or even recent, as you can see from some of my posts.

So, with clarity and transparency, let us start again!

I do hope you recover well. I also believe that the mind plays an important part in the well being of the body. Look ahead, recall the pleasant memories of earlier trips, share experiences with friends here and do not go about cursing life. It will all help .....

We at BCMT are very accepting and as long as people realise their mistakes and admit them, no one would have a grudge.

@Everyone: I am myself trying to learn the intricacies of maintaining a bike and related terms. I refer to online material and whatever I find relevant, I am posting on my blog. I do mention the source clearly at the start of the post. Is that Plagiarism?

If you think its Plagiarism, please let me know, I will delete it and write my own interpretation.

If the SOURCE of the text/pics etc. is clearly mentioned, it cannot be called plagiarism. However, there are some authors who prohibit parts of their articles from being posted elsewhere; only the entire article may be posted with due credit.

And that is not Kurt Cobain! Is it?
But it is so very true!

Hehe, Cobain would have said much the same thing but with an entirely different reference:
My whiskey glass is half full! Rather than half empty!

Thread moved to Announcements & Feedback.
This topic is certainly not Off Topic!

First BCMT Conroversy?

When one signsup for an account, do the rules say anything about Plagiarism? I think for BCMT to be on safe side, they should be a part of the forum rules. If the original writer protests against the plagiarism, BCMT team would be able stay clear of the controversy.
Salil did a great job in bringing out the truth but sometimes it would be difficult to locate the original source.

I think BCMT has come through this controverst in a good fashion. Sometimes I have seen strong action being taken against plagiarism here in US. The person not only looses their credibility on that forum but many others as well through common members.

Trust we will all learn something from this.

@booBooo: I have one more suggestion. Please change your font style and color for future posts.
