Again stolen worksheets....
 

I guess that some people who keep stealing material from everywhere have made us suspicious even towards ourselves. I made some comments on one worksheet which was not finally stolen, as very correctly Mena clarified. I just want to apologise for �my comments , but also make a plea for "honest" worksheets.�

WHAT DOES THE ADMINISTRATOR DO WITH THESE PEOPLE WHEN THEY HAVE BEEN HERE FOR A LONG TIME AND HAVE A LOT OF POINTS? DOES HE KICK THEM OUT DEFINITELY? OR...THEY ARE ONLY PUNISHED WITHOUT THE BONUS POINTS FOR THE STOLEN WORKSHEET?

I have no idea!

I�ve been reading such posts since I became a member but I don�t know what happens next. It�s �a shame to try to "steal" points. But I think that we all are grown-ups and teachers, we should have already formed an opinion and attitude towards stealing, cheating, sharing, respecting...

Be well�

Good evening marileia. Please delete your post, Noelica thee original is Noelica�s. She downloaded it herself as a picture dictionary on January 15th (the other one by the other contributor was downloaded one day later , January 16th, but with a different layout, a matching exercise, only the same pictures) and today she downloaded it as a matching exercise. That�s it.

I�m sure you would like to delete your post as fast as you can.

Hugs,
mena

Good evening to you all!

It�s extremely late and I believe my dear friend Marileia went to sleep without reading my post or my private message. I�m going to do the same in a while, but before that I think I should clarify this terrible misunderstanding, because that�s what I believe she would have done if only she had known.

In this particular case, no one stole anything. It just happened that a contributor uploaded a worksheet on illnesses, on January 15th, as a Picture Dictionary -http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=162891#thetop   - and today uploaded it again as a matching exercise   -     http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=166421#thetop

Meanwhile, another contributor uploaded 2 worksheets, on January 16th, one of them being indeed very similar to the ones in the links above and, hence, Marileia�s  mistake  - http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=163406#thetop  

Although the worksheets are very similar due to the set of images, the other contributor has a different layout and a different exercise (matching instead of Pictionary) as you can see for yourselves.

I hope I made it clear for you and I hope no one gets hurt.

This is the second misunderstanding today. Let�s learn from them.

Have all a good night.

I just wish people would show more respect for other teachers� work!
As it has been said before, we don�t do it for money! We upload and download worksheets to enrich our teaching experience and to benefit our students.
 The least we expect is some credit for our work. It�s really annoying when people find some good ws on this website and post them again as their own to get points. This isn�t honest! It happened to me yesterday.
The spirit of SHARING in this site is wonderful!!! I can�t begin to tell you how my teaching has changed thanks to this website!!!
Please don�t spoil it!!!Heart
