Faq, Help / Does my new essay have to be merged with my old one? [4]
1. The meaningless post/s were removed; we don't want to host useless messages in other students' threads. Once they were removed, your account was suspended. Read the TOS (link in the footer) for more details.
2. It may be a different college but you used a lot of the SAME sentences in both essays. For example, the paragraph that starts with:
"{COLLEGE} strong emphasis on core courses will develop my foundation on different functions, including finance and strategy..."
IF the essays were completely different, they could belong in separate threads; but since you've copied the same parts in both essays, they have been merged.

Hello, we couldn't find your essay posted on other websites. You may post a link and we'll check this out. Thank you.
You cannot plagiarize yourself, so if you are the original author of the essay you posted (and if the name associated with your account is correct), it's not considered plagiarism.

You are correct. An Urgent thread (it would always appear above all other threads and a qualified person is guaranteed to answer it) requires a paid credit. On the other hand, a Featured thread doesn't require a credit but requires at least 2 Likes.
I believe it also means that I need to pay still.

Faq, Help / Is it safe to post my essay here? Or should I be worried about Plagiarism? [175]
In response to this question:
"I have written two essays and would like a review. My question is how can I keep others from taking my entire essay and using it as their own if anyone on the internet can see it? I don't mind others seeing my essay after I start college (ensuring someone doesn't take my essay and submit it before I do)."
In simple terms:
1. You post your essay under YOUR OWN name (the one found in your profile).
2. The essay is indexed in search engines within several minutes to make sure it shows your name and the publication date.
3. Now - EVEN IF - someone copies your essay, they cannot claim they were the authors because the essay had already been published under your name and in the past date. Of course, it only applies to content that has never been published before (ie. you are not allowed to copy an existing essay/content from another site and post it here).
It works the same in other online publications; you may copy-paste an article from the New York Times but if you tried to claim authorship, you would not be able to prove it (and you would be put in jail for theft ; ).
