We are trying to help you, “you moron.” (Insult borrowed from your own hidden comment.) Endorsement of plagiarism in any form will get your fanny smacked in the real world as well as on this platform. Please consider your words carefully before you encourage people to do things that are not only illegal, but immoral and ethically unconscionable. No amount of editing in the world can erase the fact that you blatantly advised writers to “rip” the work of others. If I were you, I would simply take my lumps at this point and learn from the experience.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
you really do sound like a bully
Hey, if somebody doesn't stand up for what's right, then everything starts going wrong.
And seriously...how many alt accounts do you have? That's starting to look suspicious to me all by itself. More and more like a chronic scammer who's just looking to get over on as many folks as he can. There are teams in this community who monitor such activity, by the way. In case you didn't know.
did you just flag my comment
this in not a alt account
i would like to know your reasons
You seem to be new on the platform. Either that, or you have several alt accounts. One thing you should learn about Steemit, whether you're new or not, is that the community here will hold you accountable for both words and actions. I flagged your comment because you and the original poster (who I still believe are the same person) seem to think it's okay to hurl insults as a means of resolving conflict. That is borderline "hate speech," one of the criteria listed for flagging posts on this platform
Plagiarism is another of those criteria. And while I haven't accused anyone of outright plagiarism, the encouragement of it goes against community standards. Several of us veteran authors, writers, editors, and witnesses tried to communicate with the original poster (probably you) about this. Instead of listening, the original poster (probably you) became defensive, hostile, and called someone who edits professional writers in the publishing industry a "moron."
Believe me, if it weren't us taking you to task on this unacceptable behavior, someone else in the community would, eventually. Better us than a whale who could come along and obliterate your entire account. We have standards in the Steemit community. Plagiarism gets dealt with by Steemcleaners and Cheetah. Encouragement of plagiarism may or may not fall into their scope of practice, but if you are responsible for encouraging behavior that results in negative consequences for other writers who don't know any better, then shame on you. And if you really are just a new user who hasn't started blogging yet, who just joined the platform to become one of the tiny accounts thinking they're going to pile onto this debate and not listen to sound advice from people with experience, then I don't predict a very good run for you on Steemit.
you flagged my comment because i said that you sounded like a bully can you explain how that is hate speech
i am a new user (about 20 days) i join just watch and read content
do you have any other reason for thinking this is a alt account
