RE: illegal To Cure | Why Cancer and Other Diseases Aren't Allowed To Be Cured
Edit: I did some further looking into this and see that you are original author.
Sorry, but you can understand that I was trying to protect authors like yourself from being plagiarized.
As you can see, Cheetah left you a comment. That is a bot that looks for similar information elsewhere on the web and leaves a comment as a warning to others of possible plagiarism. You may lose votes if people suspect that it is not your own work.
Please make some sort of comment in the post that this is an older piece of your own work.
Normally, whenever we quote something found elsewhere on the web, or out of a book, we indicate that it is not our words by putting the > symbol in front of the quoted material. That way Cheetah will ignore it.
For example: >When we have .... (looks like below)
When we have this much proof for cures of various diseases, from both doctors and countless patients from around the world, it's hard to disregard it all as being pseudoscience with no basis for legitimacy.
Original Comment: This is totally cut and paste from another article.
None of these words are your own.
You did not even give credit to the real author.
You will get in trouble REAL quickly here on Steemit doing stuff like this.
The flags will start coming and your reputation # will tank quickly.
I'm a little confused about all this. Is there a post showing all the etiquette that needs to be known here on Steemit? I wouldn't have ever thought to add a >. Not that I needed to. Everything is my writing. The intro in the beginning of the video clearly show The Awareness Revolution. The main focus is that video. Everythign else below it is just supporting what I stated in the video.
So if I state in my posts that it's from an older post of mine, then the bots will take notice? The bot that commented upvoted, which is odd if you're suggesting that it was really giving me a plagarism warning. Also, the link's URL clearly has The Awareness Revolution in it. So you saw the bot say that but didn't notice the link is to my own website?
if there's anythign else I should know to avoid things like this in the future please let me know.
It is a big learning process, yes.
There are many of posts made by community members about the rules; and the biggest one is no plagiarism. Second would be no spamming.
Steemit is meant to be original content.
It is more than fine to link to someone else's video or content, but the person must put their own thoughts about it.
Here is a good video to watch for a start:

I want to help you get noticed. I like what you write. I had wanted to vote, but then doubted whether you were the original author when I saw the Cheetah comment. Cheetah isn't saying that it is plagiarism, but is just one way for people to be more careful. Nobody wants to vote on plagiarized stuff, especially those people who have lots of voting power and could give you the most rewards.
You should probably add your Youtube channel in your profile as well, along with a description of what you are all about. Also mention on your youtube channel and website that you are on Steemit too. That way it's easier to know you are who you claim.
Anyways, you are allowed to post your own already-published articles over here on Steemit.
But it would be best to add a note to the top of bottom about how this is your original content, that has already been posted elsewhere on the web. Just make it quick and easy for people to tell so that they don't have to guess.
Ouch pretty harsh!! I'm SO glad you did the research to find out that @arevolution is legit. 😊 Thanks for looking out though!
What a great compliment that it was so good it looked copied! ❤
