policing ourselves makes the site better.

First let me say, if someone were to read the impetus for the creation of this site, they would understand this site is for the advancement of our KNOWLEDGE of UNIX for the WORKPLACE and for HOME USERS. Practical knowledge to make our jobs easier and for personal advancement of individual knowledge.

Second, doing someone's homework for them is counter-productive and in direct opposition to Neo's reason for creating this site. I would go so far as saying it is tantamount to CHEATING. Like having a Dad do his child's homework. (( Don't take this as any reflection on the intellect of the users )) The person doesn't LEARN, they only imitate what someone has told them the answer is.

Now, as a non-moderator person, let me say that when I see blatant abuse of the no homework policy, I will speak up. Regarding posts that are borderline, I usually give a gentle warning and may give a few hints to the answer if the user is asking politely. Usually posters understand and it isn't a big deal. However, occasionally there are a few who take offense, but only a very few.

I personally don't think it is wrong for non-moderators to take active participation in this site. We are the "neighborhood watch" for this forum.

I have been posting here for over a year now, and I consider this issue to be a matter of everyone policing everyone. As long as it remains civil, I don't see any problem with it.

Smilie

Thanks for asking.
