Thank you so much! Be sure to alter the text a bit each time so you don't get dinged by @cheetah like I just did :) I hope this helps. Better than leaving the comments to just sit there unanswered in my opinion.

You're right! Thanks for the hint! 😃
Can you please let me know if the cheetah is someone I need to be on the lookout for?I'm more of a minnow than you are and have no idea who this @cheetah character is.
Yes it's not usually a problem. This bot checks all posts against internet search to check for plagiarism in the text.
So let's say you run a blog with a good post. you can't just copy paste the text here or you will get dinged. You have to quote it with markup which I do not know how to do. You need to include the link and paraphrase or quote. Same if you find something online you want to use here that is not yours.
I don't really have all the details of right and wrong about this since I usually write original content for my posts. In this case - I posted comments I had already used here - exact wording- so the cheetah got me.
This is to cut down spammers and if you get a bunch of cheetah hits - the big guys will come knock you down. But one or two mistakes is not a problem. That's why the message is nice. Most of us just made a mistake.
got it. thanks for the update. i'll read more on it from the faq pages.
