What do you think of the people that are copying others' answers?

This happened to me, someone copied me and got best answer. Not that it is a big deal but it is annoying because I keep seeing multiple people stealing answers from other people.

    What I don't get is why the asker chooses that one. A lot of times, the person just paraphrased my answer, and mine was actually better. In the end, it doesn't matter--I guess these people have a pathetic need to get 10 points you can't actually use for anything.

    It's very iritating, I have seen the same answer posted 15 times THIS WEEK. Imagination is clearly a thing of the past.

    Doesn't bother me at all. in fact, I'd take it as a compliment. Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

    Might not be stealing. Could be that they think similarly to you. It's difficult to be original sometimes.

    Kind of annoying especially if it happens to you. Happend to me a few times now. Could be jealous person, someone you blocked or any other reason.
