Hello Everyone,
For the last couple of weeks, I've been feeling very low because of something I used to be very involved in and gave in a lot of hard work hitting the deck. Well, I'm talking about my HIVE journey. You would've surely noticed the downvotes by the @hivewatchers, well this is not the first time I got blacklisted. The previous instance was pretty legit and yeah it was wrong, I did plagiarized bits and pieces of articles a couple of times. That was 2-3 years back and I wasn't even aware of that properly too. But regardless I did serve the 75-day appeal procedure as @hivewatchers said to.
But this time the case is pretty awkward and very uncooperative, to say the least. After a very long time, I tried making a comeback with this account on HIVE as the previous blacklist totally wrecked my engagements and my hard work which got me the reputation to over 70 steemer-sayu907. I thought about starting afresh and starting posting content on this account (sayu907), I actually left hive for more than a year before making this account as I had many things to deal with in my personal life.
Fast forwarding to today, my account stands blacklisted and this blog post is again the start of my appeal as @hivewatchers asked for. The thing that went wrong is I posted videos I already posted previously. The reason for that is I wasn't able to make videos on a daily basis as I had a lot of things going on like exams, projects, and more because of which I couldn't spare time to make videos. Honestly, I didn't know about the fact that we can't post our own original content
again. One more thing is that they believe I am part of some scam group which I find quite amusing. Back in the day, I onboarded a lot of people, none of them had knowledge of any rules on social media so they asked me for everything like withdrawing funds, making videos, etc. So whatever I knew was more or less their knowledge. Every single one of them is a real person.
I would say, you may read these chats with @hivewatchers -
The bottom line is I did make the fact clear that I didn't know about the reposting thing and I'm not involved in any scam groups, the actions are theirs and I am not responsible. But they won't listen, so I took some time off and in the meanwhile, I told everyone to stop posting as @hivewatchers think they are a scam group rather I brought them on HIVE a couple of years back.
I decided to go through again the appeal process as I think there is nothing that I can do about that right now. So here I am (again).
What I did ?
- Posting my videos which I had posted earlier as well
Links To posts I used my own original content again (REPOSTING) -
Finally, I would like to apologize to the community for the unintentional mistake I committed and I'm gonna make up for it just like the way I did and will try my best to regain the reputation I previously built on HIVE.
Also, I would like to request to please make the appeal duration a bit doable, a whole year is really something that is very harsh on something I did not intend to do. Along with that, I promise I will be making content that will be a totally unique and original work of mine. I won't post stuff I already did rather will not post a day. I now know about the rule of reposting
Thanks
@sayu907
** UPDATE **
The Post is VALID
You have nicely twisted the facts about what actually happened and what you did.
Nowhere did we say that someone is not allowed to post their own original content. Actually, everyone knows that is what we expect - original content.
This time you were not blacklisted for "posting original content".
You were blacklisted for mass fraud of Hive by farming it with mass spam of recycled posts.
Evidently, you think that Hive Ecosystem is an easy farm.
Moreover, the accounts that you "onboarded", had all been blacklisted for plagiarism, and now they started farming after a few months of a break with mass spam of recycled posts exactly at the same time when you did start it.
Evidently, you either have access to these accounts or communicate with these "users" on how to find a new way to scam Hive.
I am not sure who you are trying to deceive with that misleading explanation.
Maybe you think that we are naive to be fooled.
The first time, you were blacklisted for mass fraud with plagiarism (the other accounts did the same)
THIS APOLOGY POST IS INVALID FOR PUBLISHING MISLEADING INFORMATION ABOUT THE EVENTS & NOT FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS OF STEP 2 OF THE APPEAL.

Did you miss this ? Is this not what the reason was ?
Anyway, I'm not going to repeat what I said about those account nor my unknowing mistake for reposting content which I didn't knew was not acceptable.
Just tell me what you exactly want me to write in this blog, I will add that right away. Please, I geniunely want to restart again.
Also I wrote a section clearly about the reason too
@sayu907 the @hivewatchers are forgetting that they are NOT the community. They are a minor part of it with some solid backing. Yes, some of the things they do are good and there is potential but they are not cooperative and they are treating everyone like children in kindergarten.
Personally, I'm refusing to deal with bullies like them and I'm accepting the negative votes from @spaminator. If you look at my posts you will that the community actually likes them and that's what matters.
