Cheating on making golds in new threads

I posted a pattern yesterday when nobody had posted it before me. Only one person was offering 10,000 gold for getting the pattern. Today I find out, some one else has posted the same pattern month ago and actually is getting more view and coins while my patterns has not so many viewers. I assume they first are requesting the pattern and as soon as anybody post it for the first time they pay couple 100 coins to get it then they edit their post!!!!! I dont have any other explanation for it!!!

Ummm, editing is not possible after a certain period of time (24 hours maybe? Im not entirely sure about it), unless you have moderator rights. It is possible that the bounty wasnt fulfilled, because the person who posted the thread never replied to the bounty, and that happens from time to time. May I ask which thread youre talking about? Annnnnd, posting first time and second time? I dont really get it either. Are you talking about duplicates? In that case, if you found that the same thread was posted as yours, but earlier than yours, then yours is a duplicate.

Edit: I saw only one bounty request youve fulfilled recently. If youre talking about that, please note that the designer has three different patterns with the same name. That is in no way cheating since those are not the same as what the request called for. And it wouldnt make sense to put such a high bounty on something thats already on the site. That amount (plus 30% tax) is deducted from the bounty owners account, and those are not refundable in any circumstance. As for the views and downloads... It takes time. Not each and every pattern gets downloaded 200 times just minutes after it gets approved. Older threads, especially from more popular designers, or trendy patterns accumulate more views and downloads naturally, while others just dont. You have a thread thats barely a day old, please dont compare it to something that is on the site since 2019 or since February, because yours didnt even have a chance to be seen by everyone yet (not everybody is on the site every day). Please send the threads name in PM for anonymitys sake in case its different from the one I was talking about.

One more thing I forgot. Once a thread passes moderation, its impossible for the uploader to edit it. If they attempt to, itll bounce back to a special area, where we have to oversee the changes and approve it again.

first: always post the link to the pattern, this can help
second: go to the post, in the middle you can see a note:

EDIT by and the date
then you have certainty and can complain

I posted my pattern in English and Spanish. I think I found out the reason, one of modeator has edited my patterns name in Spanish and that is the reason I was confused. Sorry for confusion. Thanks for your help.
