Yep, he's misrepresenting.
You could understand if he did exactly the same thing but added at the top "From Bigourami" or "BG already answered this for me and it might work for you."
But with no credit it's not just lazy, it's theft.
I wonder if he has a history of doing this?
not that i know of
If not then he was just lazy. He remembered your good advise and slapped it in quick,
But it's still theft.
I've never posted on yahoo answers. Do you want to/can you protest? Or just post this record on to one or all of his pages?
you can report it to the head honchos and they will take it from there, but there's nothing stopping him from making a new account and starting over again
But if he is commonly thieving he will change his name and keep it up.
I don't know your personality, maybe you are just telling us it happened. And don't care too much.
i just like to see noobs getting pwned
im sort of just sharing that i caught him red handed, i guess i'd be pissed if there's people out the C&Ping me all the time, pretending to be as smart, ingenious, and humble as i am
but yeah not too much care given
Or you just want him to say "Oops, my bad. I should have credited you or passed the knowledge you gave to me, in my own words and understanding."
w/e
Because he probably didn't mean anything by it.
It was an over site of etiquette.
He is a good fella that loved your answer so much he too quickly posted it directly, with no thought of malice or thievery.
the least he could have done then was pick mine as the best answer from his question. insted he picked some guy who talked around the issue
Forgive his exuberance. And say a sweat prayer for his future good fortune.
The only payment you need is satisfaction knowing you gave such good advise and were able to help anyone and everyone your words touched through your hands and his.
But if it were me....I would hound him forever and crush his spirit to live until he was unable to function as a citizen of prosperity and was forced into bankruptcy and suicide to feed his babes from his death benefits.
good as well
