RE: okra soup with semo...... perfect launch
And @karenmckersiesince since you decided to try and make this about me somehow being a bad person and not practicing the "good Karma that you firmly believe in" I took the last 2 minutes and found the image this thief stole:

Now do you want to flag him for entering stolen content into your contest or should I?
I had just barely seen his entry when i noticed your comment !! I did not even have a chance to reverse search and check into it yet !!but the 25 reputation was a good indication and he would have been checked first! which i usually will do near the end of the contest , when I go over all of them to choose a winner , so get off your high horse and stop messaging me , it doesnt matter to me untill the end when ai choose a winner ! if it bothers you so much do what you like but i just got home from working a 12 hour graveyard shift and I am going to sleep . Have a nice day !!👍
NOT THE FIRST THIEF ON STEEMIT AND IT WONT BE THE LAST! ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO FOOD AND RECIPES !
You tagged me and responded directly to my comment so I responded to those comments. Not sure what you expected me to do?
Sorry you put yourself in the middle of this and hope that your contest has great success. Sure you have to deal with the same content thieves that we do with the Pay It Forward Contest. Good to know that you take the time to reverse image search before awarding prizes.
For some reason i can not find his photos when I reverse image search on my chromebook !? but heres his first entry you might also want to check into , I am sure its not his as well .

It didn't show up for me either, but it's the same dishes and mat the food is placed on for the photos. There is no way it's his work.
This is why I asked him to prove in some way it was his original work and not stolen. See he stole one of my comments and then posted it as his own work. Then when I looked at all his other posts and comments they are all stolen content. He is a thief.
I'm sorry that I got defensive with how you approached this as you didn't know why I was being aggressive towards @massivetreamt and you took it as a knock against your contest. As someone who runs a contest I understand how much blood sweat and tears can go into it...ok it's just a lot of time and financial investment but it sounds better the other way...lol.
I mean this clown actually posted that a car was his as a comment, the photo had the logo from the site he stole the image from. Someone else caught this and showed it to me after I pointed out what he did about my post. Seriously who does that?
Anyways after getting called out on all his thievery and flagged back down to a 25 he posted a comment on one of my posts this morning saying
So he took the time to come tell me that he won't repeat the theft and that I had motivated him to create his own content sounded great. Then I jump over to see semiprofessional photos of food there is no way he created just pissed me off. Seriously if he had the talent to create that food and take that photo he wouldn't have to steal content to create not only posts but his comments too.
This is someone that we want to leave steemit for good and tell any and all of his scammer friends that they aren't wanted here. We don't need content thieves on steemit. They not only make the entire platform look bad, they steal money from the reward pool that should go to hard working original content creators, and they actually potentially create some legal issues for steemit.
Anyways I am pretty sure we are both on the same side of things. We are here running contests trying to help out other steemians and both want to see those putting in the effort to create quality original content get rewarded.
You are so right and I am in full agreement some times its so hard to catch as they are being trickier, but i do see this a lot and also had a meme of mine totally copied even what I wrote on top was copied Lol I mean how stupid and lazy can they be hahha! same thing happened to my son, so of course he was flagged like crazy after I pointed it out! anyways its a problem for a long time of lazy people trying to game the system, I really hate useing my 100% vote on flagging when it could go to much worthier people, so it also pisses me off! Good luck on steemit and with your contest! 👍✌💁
I hate wasting votes on it too, but would rather use them to return to the reward pool what otherwise would have been stolen. Have used steemcleaners a few times too and their turn around time is kind of slow sometimes. Then again I'm sure it's because so many thieves are trying to get a foothold here on steemit that they are bombarded with reports of plagiarized content each day.
Not sure if you know the account @newbiegames but it might be worth joining their discord to help promote your contest. Some good content producers in that room who are looking for contests to join. Just a thought.
Thanks, much appreciated!👍👍👍✌
