Note: Please note that this is just my opinion on this matter as some of you may have different opinions of this issue.
I don't know why but I am I the only one who is actually getting angry at people steeling your candidates you have planned in your list to work on? Is it just me or is anyone getting this issue? Well, that happened to me. This is the main reason why I hate user steeling others candidates. I am honestly sick of people who are not aware that this user and I have this candidate and all of it goes to waste. Get a sandbox, someone stole it, I planned the date to create the proposal, someone stoles it, I AM WORKING ON IT, Someone stoles that candidate from me! And do you know what the worst part? Yeah that's right. I just wasted, an entire WEEK, So many hours and many other craps, ALL FOR NOTHING!! All because someone WAS NOT AWARE or DIDN'T KNOW of the fact, they stole A candidate I was working on for so many days just for absolutely nothing and now because of this I have to throw everything away from my writing all the way to the trash!! Thanks a lot, you just wasted so many of my time for absolutely nothing because something like that happen to me.
What's more frustrating is the fact the proposals are super low effort. One time my candidate got stolen and ends up getting rejected but the main reason was that the proposer made it so low effort as it missed so many important details or even heinous acts in the matter making more reasons why I hate this issue and at the same time this is why I think all of the wikis should have a to-do-lists. It probably won't fix the problem, but it sure as hell would make it better to prevent others from stealing candidates.
Yes before you ask. One could say someone or even you accidentally stole or even have no intentions of stealing or taking other users' candidates (Trust me I've seen this a lot). But still, it is pretty bad and at the same time, it is still your fault for stealing their candidate since there is no coming back once you did it despite the fact you won't do it again.
Apologies if I actually offended anyone for these types of things, but honestly I don't even care anymore. I feel like this is something that needs to be brought up so many times and yet people did not have the strength to do it and I'm sick of it. I would love to hear your guy's opinions in the comments about it.
