What is Considered Plagiarism
Plagiarism is using another's words or ideas without their express permission and/or passing it off as your own original work. This includes (but is not limited to) songs, stories, plotlines, persona sheets, poetry, and quotes, whether the party being plagiarized against is a member of Triad or not.
Plagiarism at Triad Weyr will not be tolerated in either posts to the Triad list or in persona sheets.
A general rule of thumb - if you didn't write it, don't use it.
Penalties for Plagiarism
Should a member be caught plagiarizing another's work (whether a member of Triad or not), the following may occur:
- 1st Offence: Written Warning
- 2nd Offence: Council supervised disciplinary mentorship
- 3rd Offence: Loss of Rank
- 4th Offence: Expulsion from the club
Should the Council deem it necessary, stricter penalties may be enforced when a serious violation has occured.
What to do if you suspect a member has plagiarized from you
Please send an e-mail to the Triad Council with all necessary information (your name, contact information, what you believe has been plagiarized, etc.). The council, in turn, will contact the member in question about the allegation and work with you until the matter is resolved. If the Council finds an act of plagiarism has taken place, disciplinary action will be taken.
