Achievement 3 by @elfmyselfandi Task : Content Etiquette

in Newcomers' Community2 years ago

Oh, I love brains! Like... not the way zombies love brains. More like... it's so attractive when people have one and know how to use it. So I think that's why I like Steemits "Proof of Brain" concept.

What I've written so far is original content, straight from my brain. I don't recommend a visit though, it can get pretty weird in there. But do follow me and read my posts, they're for the most part..well. No, you're quite likely to run into the crazy there too. But if that's something you enjoy. Please do read them.

And comment. I love a good conversation.
Anyways (shakes head)

What is not written by me, but still on the subject of brains - and honestly there are so many movies why this is such a bad idea, but here we go:

"Scientists Grew Tiny Human Brains and Hooked Them up to Robots
Oh yeah, and they sent them to space, too.." Source

(Italian hand gestures) Have we learned nothing? (this is me Sparkles original thoughts again)

As a journalist, storyteller and artist- plagiarism is a subject very dear to my heart. It fu*king sucks when people steal your work, so just don't.
And as for sources - be specific. Even when you paraphrase take the time to write out the source. Imposter syndrome is hard enough to battle as it is, if you suffer from it don't make it worse by trying to pass off work that's not yours to make you look moar cleverer. Don't do it.
Exercise that brain of yours and practice writing original content. And if it's not your thing - do the things to make sure people know where you got the awesome stuff from.

Sorry, my inner Karen got a bit excited there.
(checking...308 words. ok, that will do it.)

Alright, see you in the next post!
