Shaniqua Posted June 8, 2019 #1 Posted June 8, 2019 Okay i dont mean to be such a sooker but, i gotta just say whats on my mind based on experience on here and in game chats..... you know what really grrs my gears....... its when someone expresses an idea in game chat or in forum as a reply to another thread topic, which is a brilliant reply or comment.... then another user (may it be knowingly or not as in on purpose/or not.... takes that idea, and pretty much literally changes a couple words so that they are not just copy pasting and posts it in chatroom again or in forum as another brand new thread topic or in main chat as an idea of their own... I understand if its sometimes just the person doing it not really understanding or realizing what they are doing and does it automatically and innocently... yeah its ok.... but for some reason... i tend to notice when it happens, and it happens a lot... not just to me, but all around town... even ive seen vip or mod lvl users doing this as well ( more so forum wise i think ) so its not like im calling any group of users out or saying its a farming tactic, sometimes it just is happening without conscious realization, and when it does happen i suggest the person who makes a connection between the two very similar or related replies or topics, to speak up, and give credit where credit is due! also it may even help bring awareness to this happenig 😃 okay guys thats my shani rant for today, its been on my mind a while i think.... so here it is in its official capacity and (_*_) stamp of shani approval __________________________________________________________________ kek ho silver awayyyyy!
Kate Posted June 8, 2019 #2 Posted June 8, 2019 What made you to even create this topic ? I feel like someone has stllen your idea which was taken by stake but was represented by someone else ? Well if so then sorry but share the idea here too.
williamshennie9 Posted June 8, 2019 #3 Posted June 8, 2019 Do people really do this? I haven't seen it for myself (unless I am just not paying attention, but I'm pretty sure I am). If there is duplication of ideas, then surely the timestamp of the post will be able to tell who the rightful poster was?
Etude Posted June 9, 2019 #4 Posted June 9, 2019 Well I guess the early bird catches the worm, in a way using chat to brainstorm you kind of should expect thaere would be people to try to profit off your said idea.
