Well, I was blacklisted a month and a half or two months after I opened my hive account. It was for 4 lines of crap I put in to add historical context to my travels. I'm a writer, and sometimes I take notes in my notebook or my cell phone of some places I visit so I can later review them and write about it or I can write my own stories. As I was writing about something I visited some time ago I didn't remember what was mine and what the tour guide had said. It turned out that those 4 lines I wrote just as the tour guide said, were written the same as on another website I don't know about.
Personally, I think that if I wanted to have plagiarized something I would have made the whole post plagiarized, not 4 lines over 3000 words in a post, where the photos were mine and the rest of the text as well.
However it doesn't matter if you are new or clumsy on the platform, because they gave me the punishment of writing 60 posts for my appeal, which I am still fulfilling.
The problem is not the spaminator bot, which only removes an annoying, but small percentage of quantity. The problem is people like meritocrazy, samuraiscam, and others who follow the voting trail of this bot and downvote you by removing large percentages of your post without even checking why you are blacklisted and without checking that since that post for which you were blacklisted, you have not made the same mistake again.
I think that since neoxian made the post there was a before and after, at least with users who wrote some post with artificial intelligence. Now they get a warning first before being blacklisted. I didn't get any warning and it didn't matter that I was a new user. I would like that, in their work, they include that first warning for all people, even more if they are new users, because otherwise they take away the desire to continue posting.
And people who follow spaminator's downvote trail, if you downvote me, let it be for some objective reason that you didn't like something (because everyone is free to vote or downvote what they want) but not simply because someone is blacklisted. It's very annoying that they don't check beyond the why and shit on your work and the time you spent in making a 100% genuine post.
I don't see it as fair, in my opinion. But I live in Spain and I have my job with which I pay my house and my bills, and in hive I found a place to write and have some extra. But there are people from other countries that maybe have nothing and they are screwing them by taking like 5 or 10 hives in every post. I think it's not the way, that's my humble opinion.
Yep. They are more like enslaving poor users.
For example 😔
This is such an articulate argument, it could have been a post in itself
Thank u very much 😊
Your explanation already represents other victims on this platform, including me. We have been victims of people who gain power, but do not use that power intelligently and carefully.
Just like you, I also work as a writer (and journalist) in Indonesia. We understand copyright, plagiarism, and so on. But on this platform, one or two people using bots, have taken a heavy toll on issues they don't understand. Thank you very much @ayneblood.
Of course, the background of his action is very good, because it is not fair that someone earns money by plagiarizing others, but I think that it is possible to differentiate a lot who did it intentionally and who did not. That is why I think that it is fair, just as now they are first notifying those who use AI to write, they warn them before putting them on the list, the fair thing would be to do the same for everyone else, I think. There will be someone who may fall into the same mistake again, but others like me, no.
In some cases, there is no plagiarism. They just posted the same posts that were posted on Hive on the news portal. The military police account should be able to distinguish between plagiarism and exclusive posting.
