Whatever happened to that StraighterLine free course thread?

I'd like to know too.

If I recall, they were giving a free course for an interview. Is that SPAM? What rule violation did they make?

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.

Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.

Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.

Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.

Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

cookderosa may have the reason why the thread was deleted and the account banned. She stated--

Quote:Maybe it's not real? I looked at the survey just now, it's open. It want's personal information but doesn't look TO ME like it's part of SL or anything official. In fact, why couldn't I just create a survey on that same site and ask people randomly for their phone number, email addy, etc?

She may be right.

I don't know if the survey was real or legitimate but the original poster was banned because he created an account with the sole purpose of promoting a commercial endeavor (Straighterline) and within minutes of signing up, posted the same link in three different threads (spam).

Thanks, it's good to see that spam was taken care of so quickly.
