RE: Citing sources - is it enough? The war against plagiarism continues
Hi playfulfoodie, this driving me crazy too, and yet there have been times I have found an article and wanted to share it with the SteemIt community, but didn't want to seem like I was reposting for rewards.
I don't flag these post that comes from elsewhere and just a source is commented, but I don't upvote them either.
Thanks for sharing your view on this @whatsup! I sometimes ignore these posts, because I'm not sure how the community feels about them. But I see them getting rewards and when I think about how unfair this would feel if I were the original author of the piece, I feel like I should be flagging them. For the original author, and for the reputation of Steemit.
I feel that if you feel that way you should use your stake how you like and flag away. :) I would appreciate people getting freer with their flags to help shape the site. It will all come out in the wash.
