General discussion / I got caught scripting??
« on: February 21, 2016, 07:32:59 am »
In my English class we have this really boring thing we have to do every week where we have to go to this site (membean) and study vocabulary words for 135 minutes every week. So I made a script in Javascript that did the membean for me by continuously clicking this button called "pass" that I found hidden inside the website's html (they didnt do a good job hiding it). I don't know why they implemented such a thing in their html code, but nevertheless, the "pass" button would automatically count the question right and move on to the next question so my script simply continuously pressed this button until my weekly dose of membean was done. I used this script for a few months until my teacher announced that membean learned about people using scripts to do membean and they made methods to catch scripters like me, probably by logging me whenever the "pass" button was activated. I unfortunately had used my script the day before the teacher announced this. So now, my minutes of doing membean for this week were negated and I was given a 0 for this week. The teacher said she would be very mad at people who were scripting. She announced that scripting was illegal (which many of my friends doubt). Still, I am quite worried now. Can I get away from this situation? Should I continue finding better ways to "effectively" do my assignments more carefully or should I just do the work? Please help me and please provide constructive criticism if needed.
