Isn't it kind of dangerous to post essays online like this?

<p>"No one is going to steal an essay that's terrible."</p>

<p>I beg to differ; have you seen any "essays" on those buy-a-paper websites!? You'd be not only committing a huge crime but buying yourself a C- yet the sites are still used. Some people are VERY desperate; I wouldn't post an essay here.</p>

<p>I beg to differ...</p>

<p>Post it up for about one and a half weeks, and then take it down. There's a small window for someone to steal it, but <em>generally</em> people who steal essays are the people who don't hang around CC long enough... </p>

<p>And most of the time, the essays suck, to me (the reader), so I won't steal an essay here because (I think) I can write a better one. Essays are mostly personal, so whatever you write is gonna sound good to you, but not to other people.</p>

<p>You say 'desparate'. People hanging out around here in August are not desparate. People hanging out around here in December are desparate.</p>
