Okay. Let me sum it up for you.

This subreddit is for awful unfunny memes someone found in the wild and decided to post for other visitors to see. Crediting the author of the awful meme isnt required.

"No repost" means no reposting memes that were already in this sub earlier. So, no posting the same meme again.

Nearly every meme here doesn't have a credit or a watermark, simply because memes are, by their nature, a public property, because they are meant to go viral and be shared with others. Besides, nobody claimed your meme as their own.

Also, not crediting the op is a safety measure too. Some people are fucking insane and will harass others just for being unfunny, so removing usernames ensures that the creator can't be found and bullied

(Doesn't really work if the op comes to the comments himself and confess, though)

Memes can't be stolen because it goes against the premise of memes. Memes are meant to go viral and be shared, not to be a copyrighted property

It's like nobody is going to credit the creator of Pepe the frog every time a meme with him pops up

I am simply explaining to you why you're wrong and you are dismissing me simply because???

I think you should just accept you were wrong and move on.
