@JourneymanGeek Guess who's back before the 7 day suspension ended... the guy you wrongfully suspended. Please don't lie on my handle name and make inaccurate accusations on me or others in the future. You could have actually just helped me out and provided feedback and allowed me to take appropriate action and learned from there.

@JackJohansson Thanks, I already did that and the Team decided and such and thus then I sent that messge days earlier than per the wrongful suspension. I'm not making this a 1v1 thing just noting it in the chat room for mods to see the decision was made.

@TroubleMakerChatBroom, I went to bat for you because your answer didn't seem to meet the definition of plagiarism. You did properly attribute the quote. However, there's a gray area regarding fair use. Using a lengthy article in its entirety verbatim is arguable as to whether that's fair use. There was also the conflated question of answer quality when an answer is simply complete regurgitation from another source.
You took appropriate action to have the suspension reviewed if you disagreed with it. But the issue has a degree of legitimate difference of opinion, it wasn't a case of black and white right vs. wrong. Mods have to make judgment calls, and do so with good intentions. In the end, the system worked. Your comment above really isn't appropriate.
