I __________ (your name) promise not to copy and paste text from the Internet to place on MyEC. I will only post my own writing. I understand that I do not learn any English when I copy and paste. I will follow the rules when quoting another writer by using the directions on EnglishClub's page. I also promise not to upload photos that I do not have permission to use.Instead, I will provide a link to photos that interest me online. I understand that the most interesting photos to my friends are the ones I take myself. I will provide titles and descriptions for these photos when I upload them to MyEC. If I need a photo that I do not have, I will choose a photo from a clipart site or free image gallery and provide a source. Finally, I will not upload music or videos unless I have permission to share these. After I take this pledge I will take a moment to look through my page and groups and remove any copyright protected content that I added in the past.
Please write your name in the comments after you take the pledge. You can also record the pledge and add it to your music player. Thank you for respecting the work of writers, artists, and photographers! Remember, the best way to learn is to use your own words.
*Note. The images in my posts are from a clipart gallery that I subscribe to. You can also try Creative Commons sections of Flickr and Stock Xng. If you have not paid for permission to use photos, make sure you provide a link to the photographer. Please ask me if you need more details.

I swear, I absolutely use my own words 4 everything in EC cuz I really wanna improve my English and it's gonna be too bad 2 lose this chance by copying and pasting others' words...
Thx dear teacher
Sure, I agree, I swear! It's very necessary we write with our own words. I know I can haven't wrote with my own words but I'm trying to get better this, for example, I always try to modify some words, building up my own thoughts, but there are certain things you can't modify too much the way something is written, because It would lost its sense. So, I will try to do the possible to avoid that next time!
because it's very helpfull for me as a teacher and I can expole my experience
