Your thoughts on Braindumps

Hi All,

I am currently on the windows 2000 MCSE track,and I have
passed 217,219,215,& 210 using smartcertify, sybex, CBT
nuggets and Transcenders to prepare. While preparing for
the 220 exam (which I failed proviously) I was scouring
the net for resources to help me, when I can across a
website to my surprise that had the same exact questions
as the ones i saw on my exam. My question is: Is using
these braindumps cheating? One guy said he passed the 2
exams in 3 days.

The rules of conduct for this newsgroup prohibit me from using Chalk's
coined phrase in its purest form. If it was acceptable I'd use it.

Do yourself a favor and study and learn the material. Buy a cheap network
configuration and take your time and do things the right way.

Yes, using braindumps is cheating.

If you are asking? Then you already know the answer! If you are seeking
permission, you will not find it here. Cheating is cheating...Oh, yea, just
in case you missed the point...it is cheating!

I would not want to work with someone that resorted to memorizing or
copying the answers to pass the certification tests.

We all fully realize that no one is 100% in all aspects of IT...it changes
too fast, what you learned today is revised in 6 months to a year and
obsolete in 2 to 3 years. A good IT technologist must continue to learn
throughout his career, you need to learn how to learn, research, retain and
combine diverse knowledge and concepts to stay ahead of the curve. How is a
Braindumpers "knowledge" going to be an asset to me or any other co-worker,
he is a parasite, living off the knowledge of others. Supposedly, IT is one
of the last occupations based on Merit, no unions, no guilds, no organized
professional Organizations....Ronin of Technology, owned by no master,
living by their skill. And you want a short cut?

Excuse me Beowolf for asking a question I think needed to
be asked. Obviously if I knew the answer I would not have
asked. I was not seeking permission I was seeking an
answer. I never said I used braindumps to pass my exams, I
said I recently came across a site that had the same exact
case studies, and questions as an exam I took which I was
SURPRISE to see. Those people on that site did not see it
as cheating, I was simply asking the opinion of others
here their thoughts on it. But so far I am being insulted
for surfing, being insulted for using a search engine that
took me to that website, being insulted for asking a
question I did not know the answer to, and did not know
was TABOO. You should simply just put up a notice that
says "You should asked questions as long as it is not
about braindumping". Did you not read that I passed my
exams using other study materials? So don't get down on
me for asking a question.

Insulted as you may be, there is still a search function in news groups and
most newsreaders and browsers. IF you hadn't noticed, this is a public
forum, your inocent request, is seen by thousands, maybe millions of
readers. Not all of them is having a good day. What may be answered with
humor on one day, may invoke in an entirely differ response after hearing
the same question, maybe in different words, for the 100th time.

There is a long tradition of making use of the search function, before
posting a question that may have been asked and answered previously.
Acquaint yourself with it, it saves a lot bruised feelings and allows you a
chance to get a feeling for the general character of a newsgroup,
anonymously...if you chose to stay and participate then you will at least
have a rough idea of basic unwritten ground rules, courtesies most
newsgroups have developed over the years.

I doubt if anyone seeking a certification, especially after completing more
that one or two MCP exams, has never heard about Braindumps, or read an
article on "Paper MCSE", or encountered graduates of some of the more
notorious "become an MCSE in 7 days" plans that are offered continuously by
spam spewing sites from every corner of the globe.

OK, so you may have missed or were oblivious to these speed traps on the
road to certification. Now you know. As for being righteously insulted, that
may be true too. Alternately, from another perspective...current MCSEs, may
feel insulted when confronted with suspicions of being members, advocates
or practitioners of these same shortcuts. By staying silent, it could be
construed that we are tacitly agreeing that it is OK.

Your feeling, as important as they are to you, are not the be all, end all
in the game of life. Welcome to the newsgroup! Hope it is helpful in
providing information that can be of use to you as you legitimately pursue
your advanced certifications.

And I do appreciate that you took the time to respond, specifically to my
post as opposed to the others that made the same point.

Zenner

Zenner,

Thank you for your response. I am not an unreasonable
person, and I can see where I may have been remise by not
using the search function, and I am sorry for that. But
believe it or not I had not known about braindumps until a
day ago. I usually purchase transcenders to practice
questions before I take an exam. It is only because I
failed the 70-220 exam that I decided to seach the net for
free additional resources to help me practice on, that I
came across braindumps. It was a whole new world to me,
and I was not sure what to make of it. It did seem a bit
shady to me, but I wanted to get others opinions. I have
found newsgroups to be a wonderful source of information,
and help in the past, and I thought I would just post the
question here. I was shocked to be called a "troll", and
more deserving if I was "ugly" too. Regardless of how a
person feels this was unprofessional, and misdirected. If
persons like Techie and Network Guru feel that strongly
about it they should go on the braindumps websites and
insult the users not me. However I appreciate your
position, and thank you for explaining things to me.
