The story of 2004 is very simple. One poster decided to play games and ignore the rules. College Confidential warned him repeatedly and spent considerable time editing problematic posts. In the end, The College Board was able to identify him with the outcome Tri_N posted himself.
Why risk your college career?

As for the college board, there're at least hundreds of students with my name. There's no way will the collgeboard trace this back to me.
Tri N, if I understand you correctly, you decide to ignore CC requests and TCB warnings because you feel that TCB could not match your information with their files? That is NOT the point: you HAVE to abide by the rules endorsed by CC. As a side note, you should also consider that your posts might provide clues to anyone willing to spend the time to match records. For instance, how many of the students with identical names to yours were Quest scholars? Think about it!. Trinity |

BTW, if the mods think that this is revealing too much, feel free to edit my posts.
Tri N, I am not sure if you paid close attention to the warnings on this site and to the policies of TCB printed on the tests. By now, most everyone seems to understand the meaning of TCB's message. It is YOUR responsibility to follow the rules. This is not a game where you push the limits -no pun intented- as far you can and hope to see moderators edit your posts and bail you out. You are posting at your own risk. Our job is to make sure everyone has seen the rules posted. I can only advise you to use extreme caution in your future posts and ask yourself if it is worth to discuss ANYTHING in the next two days. Moderator Trinity |
