After going through the blog post of @cryptokannon concerning achievement 3 and content etiquette, I present my achievement 3 below:

Firstly, I got to learn about the Proof Of Brain concept. According to this concept, steemit allows people to earn by being creative. That is, using their brains to come out with original content, whether it be videos, writing, or images.

Another key thing I learnt is about Plagiarism. Plagiarism refers to a situation where an individual uses another individual's piece of work/content, with the due permission, or without giving the appropriate amount of credit to the author of the piece of work. #steemit allows people to produce and share quality and original content. As a result of this, people usually search online for content to post. Plagiarism happens when we share others content without giving credit to them, or to the original source.
Many things can be plagiarised; from images, videos, quotes, books, right up to intellectual property.

Plagiarism is a form of deceit because there is the intention of making people feel that the content belongs to us, when actually, credit has to be given to others.
As a result, members of steemit need to add a source after every idea which they copied, or in the case of quoting, quotation marks will have to be used, and a source still included.

Some forms of plagiarism include:

• Direct plagiarism
This is a situation where someone copies the work or ideas of another person word-for-word and presents as their own. This is considered unethical and morally wrong. It is equally subject to punishment and sanction, depending on the laws which apply.

• Self Plagiarism
This occurs when an individual uses the same piece of work twice to accomplish different tasks

• Mosaic Plagiarism
It is also known as patch writing. This form of plagiarism deals with paraphrasing. An individual will take another individual's work, change some few keywords by simply replacing with synonyms so that the original context/meaning of the text is not changed.

• Accidental Plagiarism
In this case, an individual either forget to misquoted his/her source, or misquotes the source. It could also be unintentionally misspelled.

Users who refer to their sources, stand to gain the following:
• Their posts will appear to be more credible in the eyes of their followers.
• They actually enrich their followers, because more often, links from sources, usually have a lot more to teach about the particular topic being discussed.
• Authentic content, can help you increase your number of followers, as well as the amount of traffic your blog receives.

Some of the dangers of plagiarism include:
• You may encounter trouble with those you copy from
• Followers may see your work as unoriginal and as a result, stop following you.
• Your content may not be rewarded

After equally reading this post about content etiquette the complete etiquette guide revision 20 homage
I learnt the following about content etiquette
• Do not post and run
• Do not post too often (not more than 4 times per day)
• Do not Plagiarise
• Avoid posting nudes
• Do not spam

Make sure to share great content 😊😊
