RE: Newcomers Community Announcement: Updated 24/November/2022
Hi I know if we are not native English speakers, translating our Native language to English takes some effort too. Have you heard of self-plagiarism? For me, I don't have any problem with this, but as Steemit is community-based on Proof of Stake, if someone with a higher SP doesn't like what you're doing by downvoting your post, no matter how we think it is right for us to do it, then we can't do anything about it.
You may experiment with this by publishing your post as you want, but if someone with a big SP downvote it, it is probably good to stop it and do as I have suggested.
Good day to you 😊
Hello again, Cryptokannon, thank you for your answer. I didn't hear about self-plagiarism, and I tried to search on the web. But the problem of that practice is linked to particular cases that can occur in specific fields (for example, Wikipedia tells about the academic field).
I understand what you mean and will consider what to do. On the other platform, I wrote an article also providing an example of why it is wrong to use a downvote in order to impose a personal policy, when the absence of a vote determines a value equal to 0 attributed to my post. But if these are the rules that the developers who built the platform allow, I can't do anything. When there is a system that allows you to obtain value from the publication of a post, using a tool such as a downvote based on a personal policy is something I consider deeply wrong.
Now, aside from your opinion, the most important thing for me is to understand if the Steemit team approves the policy of the zero-tolerance to the case mentioned by me, and if they have bots or larger curator accounts that don't accept publication in the way I described, and therefore I would start receiving downvotes on my posts as soon as I start posting them in that way. Do you have some information about this?
Then, I greet you and wish you a good day too. :)
There were a few users that received downvotes from someone in the past, and I brought that to the steemit team attention, and they told me;
steem blockchain is based on proof of stake...
you may ask steemit team if they will want to support your kind of publication.
They usually will not downvote users' posts, only not supporting them if they do not agree with the post.
If there's serious plagiarism and farming with strong evidence, their downvote is expected.
Thank you very much for your kindness. Do you know about any ways to contact the Steemit team?
