RE: Feed Your Minnows BOT - FREE UPVOTE GIVEAWAY - Season 11 Registration
thx, for the support unfortunately I have been getting down voted by a cyber bully and am probably leaving steemit. This was one of the cool things to be a part of thanks!
That sucks mate. Any idea why he is flagging you? Did you talk to him/her about it?
yea I initially contacted him on steem chat he never responded. This post goes through all the bs that hypocrite has done. He might have had an arguable decent basis to downvote my own article which was still more creative and original than the literal copy paste stuff I have caught him doing. But he went on to downvote a whole separate post and a comment about me selling high grade guitars and video controllers for steem via peer hub. I think I'm done if that tyrant is going to be free to continue to bully me with no recourse.

So I took a quick look at your Blog.
As far as I can tell, only one post has been "addressed/targeted" And it is VERY copy paste. Over 50% of the original Wikipedia article is included. THAT IS A LOT. That is why @littleboy is making an issue of it.
But.... It is only one Post, AND it has been less than 18 hours for @littleboy to reply. Be respectful(as you did seem to be) and give him a chance to explain further. But on this post, you may have exceeded the limits of Full copy/paste vs citation.
IF you want to give up, that is fine. It all depends on what your purpose is here. IF your only purpose is to document this stuff on the Blockchain, it is still being Written into the blockchain. IF your purpose is to get famous on other's documentation of past events..... that is going to be a tough road. You will constantly be skirting the line between plagiarism and documentation.
I say, don't give up. But reassess the way you document the stuff. If it is hard to rewrite what is already on the internet.... then just cite it, link it and write a short article(4-8 paragraphs) in your own words. ANd be okay with $1-$10 payouts.
Getting started on Steemit is tough. You have been here 2 months, so you know that already! Gotta decide if it is for you, or not.
cool. yea I'm probably done. I did cite everything. And my title, headings and text of video timings was original content and the curation of the material was also original. If there is a clear article saying the forbidden ratio between things quoted and not I will follow it. But to punish people without warnings for vague rules that the enforcers havent faithfully followed is absurd. Littleboy has a history of copy paste where even title is from someone else. He is a total hypocrite.
