A curiosity of Life and Death

So, if you look into the Wiki on the weapon itself, it mentions a user with documented images online proving their work was stolen for the creation of the weapon. I am that user, and I can prove through sketchbooks and metadata timestamps that the idea goes back to 2013. Some of you may have stumbled upon comments from the user on the social media pages in general.
I've exhausted all possibilities of attempting to find the old post, and this is the last option that comes up. Stating someone may have documented the forum post, or something. As stated, I have all the evidence to prove it with just the images that exist online, the physical nature of the original images, and so on, if it comes down to it, but I'm just looking for a copy of the post that corroborates my story at all. This post would have been not long after the Death of Pyrrha, and was the primary reason for crawling the forums when the post about weapon ideas was stumbled upon. The scythe in the comment was very similar in use, and style, but used the magnetic dust to explain what was originally suggested as a chain for Kusarigama style use. Which was a specific comment from the user who responded to the original post, almost like this was another staff member attempting to troll the audience, especially after the Audience screaming in horror comment made them a little unpopular for a bit.
Even if you only know someone who may still have the post saved for whatever reason, that's all I ask.
I'm not looking to do a takedown or anything legal, I just have plans to unveil the Master's Scythe finally, and am attempting cover all the legal ground I can before anyone tries to come after me for stealing an idea that's been in my head for like 15 years.
