Who is the code sherriff around here?

No offense to anyone in this group, particularly Tom Shelton, Michael M, or
Newbie Coder. But who the hell is Crouchie1998 and why is he accusing every
submission I make to Planet Source Code to be plagiarized?
In one submission to retrieve the XP key using native .NET function instead
of the API, he said I copied the code from him when I clearly gave credit to
the original authors of the API code and said that I had removed the API
calls in favor of the .NET functions. Crouchie wasn't the original author of
the code I used. When I asked him for the link to his code so I could
compare, I received no response.
In my latest submission, he rips me for not giving credit to the above
mentioned people for their contribution to my code. No offense, but the code
I posted was completely my own. Notice here from Crouchie's feedback on my
submission:

A user has submitted feedback to your submission at
http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com. Your submission: Printers and Ports
using PRNADMIN.DLL Comment From: Crouchie1998 Email:
crouchie1998@xxxxxxxxxx Comment: Hi Terry
So, this is one of the submissions that you were asking the Microsoft VB.NET
newsgroup about a few days ago. Does this ring any bells:
I need to create a file printer port. I can do it using the PRNADMIN.DLL
like so:
Public Sub CreateFilePort(ByVal FilePath As String)
Dim PRNADMIN As New PRNADMINLib.PrintMaster
Dim port As New PRNADMINLib.Port
port.PortName = FilePath
port.PortType = 3 'Standard Local Port
PRNADMIN.PortAdd(port)
End Sub
Is there any way I can do it without using this COM assembly?
....
==============================
So, you are asking questions in the newsgroup, getting everyone to code it
for you then you release it on here & call it your own.
You should at least mention:
Tom Shelton
Newbie Coder
Michael M
For their contribution of creating the printer port
Plus, you have hard coded names whereas you could have easily got those
names via WMI
-------------------End Crouchie's Feedback------------------------------
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this me posting MY OWN code and asking
for an ALTERNATIVE method?
Sorry for the rant, but this is starting to really get on my nerves...
