What is the deal with people who post other people's programs?

Question

I would have zero satisfaction doing that.

Answer 1

Yeah well fortunately most are smart enough to spot the copycats...

Answer 2

They do it get badges, upvotes and what not. Its sad that some good original codes are lost way down the list as these people who repost it are then ones that get credit. ftw

Answer 3

Oh and dont bother asking these people why they do it. I did unfortunately. They'll say "its for the community", "its for my followers".
