I feel sorry to hear this but you know, even if I provided doubled references and source before, someone says I plagiarized. I was devastated when he told it to me in discord because my content was original and based on my personal experience but to be safe than sorry, avoid copy pasting or providing quotes at Steemit even though you have sources and references. It's a lesson to those who are not aware especially the newbies that it is possible to be accused that our content is a copyright ingfringement and ohh, hyperlink maybe proves we don't steal another content but I'd rather not provide quotes since someone told me I'm a hardcore plagiarist. I dn't know if he said it just because he is a racist or because for him, the sources and references I put in weren't enough. I am thankful though to that man to be aware. So as you can see now, my posts have no quotations. It is also a lesson for all the writers at Steemit to avoid paraphrasing because our own ideas and personal experiences are valued more .
