Is there anything wrong with stealing material from Other Posters on SW and not crediting them?

Posters on SW don't have a copyright on their posts, so what's wrong with plagiarizing them?

i always do my best to give credit for intelectual property , I find that taking credit for the ideas of others is a sign of lack of self love and shows a desperate need for gratification. I have enough reasons to be proud so if an idea is not mine I will humbly say that I did not come up with this. I must say that I am thinking more about using the words of friends or parents or famous intelectuals because as far as SW is concerned I have never found the need to quote or copy anyone.
@reflectingmonkey Remember the Golden Rule. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Bottom line, as I say, I would like it if other people stole from me and didn't credit me, so I have no problem stealing from SW folks. That's the Golden Rule. 👌

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays its a really interesting way of using that famous proverb, it kind of highlights how flawed this proverb is hahaha others don't necessarily have the same tastes as me. I can think of numerous ways that this could be applied in wrong ways haha
@reflectingmonkey Don't knock the bible. 🤣

What if we just coincidentally asked these amazing questions at the same time? Might be hard to prove otherwise
@caPnAhab Or it's a troll with more than one acct???
