Essay Writing Service

I was doing some research for an essay I had to write, and I cam across this! It's hillarious! You can pay these guys to write your essay for you! They actually have all sorts of rates set out, for example a 99 page essay done in 24 hours would cost you over 2000 bucks, but you could make them write a 99 page essay in 24 hours! I'm surprised the teachers haven't banded together and shut them down yet!

*NOTE: I am in no way suggesting that you use their service. Any use of the website or its essays is plagerism and you will be smited (literallY) by your teacher if you attempt it.

Some of the samples are fairly substandard, considering this is a company dedicating to writing academic-style essays.

lol, what a joke, that's all i got to say

I saw a similar website several years ago when doing a research paper back in the day...

[Battlecruiser]

The site doesn't look too professional, so I don't know if they are real. And I doubt you would get anything higher than a B if you hand in one of their essays.

At least the richies have some way to get through university without thinking ^_~.

LOL...Maybe they do the "copy-paste" trick, so they can pull out a 99 page essay in 24 hours... Mmmm... I guess I'll start my own business.

I've seena couple. I'm guessing they just pull something out of their ass and slap it as their work.

There are countersites where teachers can check essays to see if they're from an online source.

Dude this one professor at my college a couple years back made a custom program that would detect patterns of groups of words, phrases and sentences in documents that you input. He used it on one paper assignment that he had once for a course (this course has hundreds of students). Well, turns out it found a shitload of similarities between all these kids' papers, and we have an honor code here (you know, "do not lie cheat or steal") so he initiated like literally scores of honor cases. The catch is that the honor code is single sanction, which means one strike and you're out. I think around twenty or so kids got kicked out of school for cheating in his class that one semester.

Our English teacher did that in our Freshmen Finals. Always one person is desperate enough to do it. I don't like plagarizing. It just gives my conscience a bad feeling. Little bugger...

Odd... What happens if it's a research paper, and if you all cite from the same book or something, and it registers it... Will everyone get kicked out?

Or if two people share resourses, and quote the same passage in slightly different words, what would happen?

There's a few things that you might wonder about that, but those are two that I find very much in front of the rest. How reliable is it?

P.S. To Speedy: Please don't post spam like that here. Yes, the WC forums take a while for posts, because there's less active people there.

There's a whole trial process...believe me, with a single sanction code no one takes these things lightly. And the problem is not the citations, but the plagiarism, i.e. lack of citation. The whole thing was a national scandal when it happened a couple years ago. The accusations were made in May of 2001 and it took almost a year to go through all the cases.

Here's some real info:

"The UVa Honor Committee has looked into 139 of the 158 cases resulting from Professor Louis Bloomfield’s plagiarism accusations. 25 of the accused left UVa after admitting their guilt, 13 were convicted at trial and expelled, two were found not guilty, and 80 of the investigated cases were dropped."

99 pages in 24 hours? Can 1 person do that alone? There would have to be like 10 different people working on it at the same time so it would be all confusing and such.. I dunno. But people have to make money somehow you know. :P

My AP English teacher really hammered us on plagiarism last year. She put the fear of God in us. Things we didn't even think were plagiarism (such as having another student read and edit our papers) were brought before our eyes.

Anyway, I'd rather take a bad grade for my own poorly written paper than be kicked out of school for plagiarism.

We have our honor. At least, I hope we do...
