However, I don't believe people should post on a public forum anything that is(or could be seen as) academic dishonesty. The honest 99% of us don't need the credibility of our classes, credits and degrees called into question because a small minority of people didn't follow the rules and then posted about it anonymously where anyone in the world could see.
I agree 100%.
When I first subscribed to InstantCert, the main things that I found that set this it apart from Reddit or Yahoo groups is that in our specific exam feedback, members can't post questions from their exams- go in there right now and you'll see many posts where Shoto redacts questions out of the feedback. That one little sliver of integrity is what has kept me here since day 1. I am proud that you can follow all the rules AND STILL WIN at this college degree game.
We've had a few threads over the years that were, imo, blatant and irresponsible. I totally agree with MNomadic that it's possible people are exploiting loopholes (resourceful people figure things out, and this is a group of resourceful people) but it's something else entirely to post about it. Since I don't post anonymously, I'm probably more careful than those with the protection anonymity gives them, but I strongly support taking the high road - there's just no reason not to imo.
