    Your powers of perception amaze me.

    Has this person nothing better to be doing than ringing in a show about a lad who cheated in his Leaving?

    They won't be able to prove it, so I hope Salman does well.

    Just because you woudn't do it yourself doesn't make it sad. You hope he does well? His unbelieveable smugness doesn't annoy you at all?

    Someday ... at some point ... you may get around to growing up. Good luck .o>

    Also, congratulations are in order to someone who may (or may not) have cheated to boast about doing so and getting caught. Sometimes I hate the internet, other times I love people's stupidity on it and letting themselves get caught like this.

    I didn't hear the thing myself, but the person was on complaining about Boards.

    Fact is people cheat all the time. Salman got away with it. Its the examiners fault he wasn't caught.

    why did they remove the original thread? i really wanna read that now cos i sorta ignored it when it was up. plz put it up.

    oh and i really think salman was just looking for attention. and he has definately got it. half the country is hearing about him. just show the ammount of attention you can get from cheating in the leaving. hey joe duffy i cheated* using a calculator! talk about me!

    and wtf is with the joe duffy show. he starts talking about the leaving, then about crocodiles then about the leaving then about amputees then about the leaving again! wtf??? he's making us listen to all this crap to get to the good stuff.



    *i didn't acutally

    The person wasn't complaining about boards, just about salman boasting. Yeah people cheat etc. doesn't mean that they shouldn't be reported for it if they're gonna be such a spa about it.

    tbh it was complete rubbish.it was just some girl going on about how he managed to cheat and about how theres no proper measures to stop ppl putting down a fake calculator model on the answer sheet.

    and she wasnt giving out about boards.she was just using boards as the reference point for all his stupidity in announcing it to the world.

    Apparently someone sent this to his school:
    Originally Posted by Letter to the OP's school

    Recently a thread was started on www.boards.ie by one of your pupils . His user name is "salman85", a number of posters have identified him as Salman Hamid, and he has admitted he attends your school. The thread he started was as follows:

    yeah i cheated my ass of in most exams, had a fully programmable calculator with 1 gig flash card, my examiner was a dope (love her tho she was nice <3) im sitting at about 500 points i would say, and unless something MAJORLY goes wrong, i have my first choice in the bag.

    He has since deleted the post, however it still can be viewed because other members later quoted from it, example: http://pie.boards.ie/vbulletin/showp...3&postcount=23

    I took serious exception to the cheating, and especially the overly-confident manner in which the person boasted about it. I have reported the issue to the State Examinations Commission, and I am hoping the person can be found and duly punished. This is a serious issue, and although I realize Cholaiste Choilm tries its best to maintain its outside image (I live in the vicinity), I think that the full co-operation of the school is necessary. May I also add that the thread has received a huge amount of views and attention. The Irish Times has quoted from boards.ie throughout the exams and it is my belief the media will eventually find this.

    Yours faithfully.

    You'll have to read a good bit into it though to find the original unedited posts.

    It's quoted near the end of the thread. Turgon quoted it originally, not sure where he/she got it from.
