Regardless of why Vod did it, this thread clearly shows you trying to claim credit for another members idea, which is plagiarism.
Again, you are always welcome to prove this otherwise.

That is nonsense. Multiple people can have the same idea, as great minds often think alike. Further, nowhere have I claimed to be the first to publish this idea, but rather, it was, and remains to be my assertion that Vod made the change in his formula as a direct result of reading my post, and agreeing with my statement.

You appear to be operating on the assumption that they are different than me. Have you sufficiently ruled that out?

Self plagiarism is a form of plagiarism, it's probably worse because then it's just copy and pasting.

You are wrong. It is in fact very common for people to make the same statement multiple times.

Regardless, Vod has a habit of following my posts fairly closely, so he probably did make the decision to upgrade the formula after reading the suggestion from QS. I dont see any other reason why he would announce the change exactly 8 hours, 29 minuets, 45 seconds after I brought up the point.

Talking about ourselves in third person now are we?
[/quote]No, I was talking about Vod reading a post from my QS account.

Since no one has bothered to address this issue, I will explain it:

There are 8 hours in a typical work day, and Vod works really hard to discredit me, even though he knows deep down I am almost always right. For the minutes, 2 less than 9 is 7, and there are 7 natural wonders in the world, and Vod is wondering when I will post next and about what. Also, 2 plus 9 is 11, and there are 11 characters in "Quickseller". Also, 4 plus 5 is 9, it takes 9 months to have a baby, and Vod often acts like a baby when dealing with me.
