OK here's one for you.

I totally, 100%, agree with the arrest of these people.

But why dreec you belive in total freedom, information is power etc. How can you agree with the arrest of someone who is posting information on the 'net for all to see I here you shout.

Well my reply would be simple. Exams are the test of information, exams are different. This is to SHOW you UNDERSTAND the information. And as such questions SHOULD NOT be freely available.

I feel the information required, to pass the exams should be freely available and in many cases it is. (knowing where to look is the problem)

So maybe I don't belive in total and complete freedom.
Damn my life is complicated

That's the first time I've heard this referred to as "braindumping", I take it this is an american term?

On the contrary, dreec - I feel you have reinforced your own stance.

Those, like us, who have put in the effort and time to gain our Certs in the correct manner have the freedom to say we earned and deserve those certs.

Those arrested (or otherwise) who defraud the accepted certification route are rightly being denied the chance to do the same, because they have not done the same.

What I'm trying to say is we are able (and free) to stand up and say I am xxx/yyy/zzz-Qualified, with dignity. We are not liars or cheats, we are honest people.

No arguments here, they deserve everything they get.

The braindumpers don't do themselves any favours anyway, they'll soon get found out for what they are at the first technical interview. When I was interviewed for my last job I was the only candidate, who were all supposedly MCSE 2000's, who could answer the question "What do you run to promote a member server to a domain controller"

@rwaforums Don't know if it's an American term or not but it has become the common term for anybody who cheats their way through the exams.

For the record,

I would still defend their right to put the information on-line. No matter how much I disagree.


Maybe I do belive in total and complete freedom

Damn my life is complicated

Phil - I once interviewed someone for a job, part of the interview was a presentation on a subject of their choice. This guy decided to do DHCP.
After the presentation the first question I asked was "What is the first message sent from the client to the DHCP Server?"

The reply;
"No messages are sent from the client to the DHCP Server, that's the job of the administrator"

I continued with the interview purely for the fun I was going to have, and made up questions which were complete and total garbage. One such was

"How do you combat the slow down in organic interface performance during regular intervals throughout the day caused by the effect of DualHO memory leaks?"

I leave the answers for you guys to play around with for a while. I am sure you will have fun

Sorry if off-topic slightly!!

Flex - Go to BED my friend.
Get a good nights sleep, looks like you need it!!

I don't see what you gain with cheating, you are soon going to get found out when you asked to implement the "knowledge" you are supposed to have learnt from the exams.

I feel sorry for all the people out there who've gone out there and worked extremely hard to get their certs and you get one or two bad apples out there, who've blagged a cert and then tarnish the reputation of the legitimate holders by doing piss poor jobs.

I have not had experience of this myself, but you see stories written all over the place.

@FLex - How quaint to hear that old tune again- thought it played out it's last after they ended rationing after the war.

Dear Dora, as you rightly say ............
