I just saw a question, where someone expects AB users to write a 750+ word essay for them. Are people really that pathetic these days, or are they just an indication of the "dumbing down" of the world?

Sounds like a pretty neat idea.

People try and have other people do their homework via AB all the time. It's pretty lame.

They are not getting enough Romaine Lettuce!

Pathetic dumb downs

Personally, I enjoy reading your answers to homework questions. ;)

That is @$&!ºª/g<, I just hope they don't give that person a wrong essay, it is better to stay away for the question. We don't do them a favor with that kind of help, we only teach that laziness pays and that they can get away with it. If they get bad grades they will tell their parents it was given by AB users and then AB gets in trouble. I saw a case where the site got sued and the parents won. We are supposed to guide them, sort of walk them to the gate and they take it from there on and do their own homework. Regards.

They're not so much dumb as lazy and opportunistic. Dumb would be if an ABer actually wrote the essay for them. Not bl**dy likely, though.

I consider it a crafty punt. It's good odds that, with the thousands of members of AB, there'll be at least one who is willing to do all that work for them. I'd be very interested to know the intelligence profile of those who ask those questions, and see whether it's skewed highend and lazy, or low end and optimistic.
