Well ... where can I start?
About 10 days ago, I inadvertently put myself in an awkward situation. On 2 of my posts, I received a comment that certain parts of the post were plagiarized. I have to admit that it was really hard for me, especially because I enjoy writing posts on Hive and it absolutely relaxes me in moments when I feel tense because of some private things in life.
I really dedicate myself to the maximum of each of my posts and its originality, but here, a mistake was made that caused a series of bad reactions on my remaining posts (which from the beginning to the end are my originals). I'm a perfectionist and I want my posts to attract as many positive votes and comments as possible. Especially the posts where I write about my travels. As a relatively new person on Hive, who opened a profile less than 2 months ago, I am still honestly not aware of how everything works and that all this can cause a series of violent reactions in Hive people.
These two posts were plagiarism (some parts of them were texts taken from the internet). Plagiarism 1 & Plagiarism 2.
Why did this happen?
Everything I will say now is the absolute truth. I'm not a person who chooses to lie. Although I know people will need time to regain confidence in me after what happened. Also, as a student who has written dozens of written works, seminars and presentations on various topics, I've always known that plagiarism is not allowed. That for all collected information it is necessary to state the sources and authors. It never really occurred to me to do that. My mistake in these two posts is that I did not write the credit for the parts that are not my original. I really apologize for that! I usually always point out when an image is taken from the internet and posted, but I was not instructed in a rule called "credits".
Anyway, what happened is now behind me and I want to express my sense of sin for what I did and to once again sincerely apologize to all the Hive people I betrayed by my carelessness. I will try to regain your trust indeed and you can absolutely control what I do in the future. I'm absolutely for it, until you make sure this was really unintentional. I want to continue where I left off, but it will take time for my profile to regain its former reputation. I really want people to enjoy my profile and my post.
I hope everything will be sorted out so you can keep writing your posts, I know that you enjoy it. Good luck! ❤️
I'm proud of how you handle this things now. How you humbled yourself and asked for apology. Embracing your mistake and move on the next chapter again. 💜💜💜
All the best @marysdairy💜💜💜
