Hey I want to ask something

Question

Will anyone please tell me that how does someone get more views on the code that the have directly copied from my code?

Recently someone named ZaRa copied my code and she even reached the hot today list but I couldn't.

I have nothing to do with her copying my code but I want to know how did she get so much views.

Answer 1

These things happens here a lot.
And I agree, it is unfair that the copycat ends up being the winner.
It should be reported. definitely.

Likes are like gold to some people...

Answer 2

Web Developer AD In safe thread you can report about copy code without credit.

For code / post promotion

Answer 3

You can reach any active mentor if someone publish your work without any credit.

I'll leave advertisement threads link here. It may reach more people

Answer 4

You can report her, but you need evidence that your code was created first

Answer 5

wint3r Already mentor reported and made code private so there is no need to continue discussion here.
Most of the times we informed the importance of providing credit but still same thing.

As problem is solved so no more answers needed for this question.

Answer 6

Ok so I have checked both of the codes, yours is more complicated which means you can't have copy pasted it in, since she hasn't included the
lines 3,5, and 6 of your code.

So I think another of her codes is also copy pasted, it doesn't seem like the code an amateur coder could do, and she has no certificates to show she can do it.

Considering you have like a bajillion certificates, it is pretty easy to see that it is your code, yet we don't really have hard evidence to back it up

Answer 7

Web Developer AD

Thanks for sharing details.

Reported and privatized it.

Answer 8

I feel the only thing these people care about is fame, even if it is like 100 views

Answer 9

Web Developer AD your creation date is 21 and copied code was 23 not the same day. Mentor already noted and commented on the copyied code. Don't worry keep learning, if you come across any person like that feel free to report on safety thread mentioned by R💠🇮🇳

wint3r Bob_Li That account was probably fack one, created for malicious intent. Most of the codes are copied. These kind of people exist all the platforms. Notify mentor/safety thread or send a mail to [e-mail] they'll take care
Focus on learning and keep improving 🙂

Answer 10

I assumed that mdoeration would be fast enough to take care of problems like these especially considering how easy it is to just copy a code from a post here. I think they should remove the feature that you can copy a code and if you want to do it you have to write it all over again, since most people like this who don't actually want to do it for learning purposes will just be lazy and not do anything.

Answer 11

Siad Alhomamy Why you shared other member code?

Answer 12

wint3r

There is creation date.

Answer 13

Hey wint3r , A͢J , Azhagesanヾ(✿) and R💠🇮🇳 thanks for supporting me but as you said that there is creation date, so I checked it but I saw that she had copied that code on the same day so the creation date of both the codes is same.

And also I had updated it some times.
Then what should I do?

And here is my code:

And here is her code:

Answer 14

I just checked her courses... She isnt doing any of the 3 web courses (by that i mean js, css and html)

If she doesnt even know how to do <p> then how is she doing this code

Answer 15

wint3r then how to report her? please guide me because I had never reported anyone.

Answer 16

How do I do that? Did you mean that I should ask a mentor?

Answer 17

No, you need to get a moderator to check the creation of times of both code
So you need to give them both the code links and ask the them to check the creation times

Answer 18

Is the copied post deleted? If not I hope this issue gets resolved soon, as this is a growing problem in MANY other communites I am in. Using code made by people better than you in the field to practice is okay I guess, but it is definitley not okay to use the code and show it as your own.

Answer 19

Thanks Bob_Li & Azhagesanヾ(✿) and Encryption(C++ and Web Development) the copied code is not yet deleted.

Answer 20

Thanks A͢J
