Yeah, it's your "original work".
You and madtoperl should get together; you both seem to have similar loose ideas about authorship.
Even if the original's author's unknown at least have the decency to say "Inspired by (... link ...)".
Update: Added another reaped link.

Hi Fletch,
Why I have to get together jesuashok.Have u seen my last writeups.If you are an active member you won't tell like this.Dont degrade others and link others.Try to help others.Dont deprecitate Please.
Thanks.

I used you as an example because, being an active member, I remembered seeing another fairly recent batch of plagiaristic posts by . . . well, you. If people weren't posting obvious plagiarisms perhaps I wouldn't have to link to anyone.
The only "degrading" going on is people trying to pass off the work of others as their own. It's a rather simple concept: If you didn't write it, credit the source with at least a link or a name.

madtoperl, I have a news flash for you and jesuashok:
We, PerlMonks, are not degrading either of you. You two are doing that to yourselves, by posting work that is not your own, claiming credit for that work, and then lying about it when you are caught red-handed.
Furthermore, the attitudes you display when presented with the evidence of your wrongdoing
help If you can, otherwise shut.
are also degrading, but again, it is something you are doing to yourselves.
Don't want to be degraded? Act responsibly. Don't lie, cheat, or steal. Then you won't need to reply indignantly to any posts calling you liars, cheats, and thieves.
Oh, and if you somehow mean by "don't degrade" that we shouldn't downvote you when your bad behaviour is uncovered, well good luck with that.
