I understand your point very well and the last thing I want is to harm the community. When I join Project Hope and I see their no plagiarism policy, I really liked it, because I repeat, I hate plagiarism; plus they allowed to publish OWN content that has been published elsewhere (we know well that some in Steemit and Hive demand exclusivity and unpublished content).

Still, to explain concretely what happened is very complicated with text. What I can do is to insist on my track record on both platforms. All content is my own creation and when I have used other sources I cite them accordingly. I have never been accused of plagiarism and this has even prompted me to write a post clarifying the situation, since beyond the monetary aspect, what really matters to me is not to lose my credibility and the trust others have in me. I have even thought about how to renounce to the rewards in Hive.

I could look for explanations, and I know I have them, even so, I prefer to admit my guilt without excuses and make myself available to what they decide in PH. I hope you can give me another chance (although I am aware that you will not see me the same from now on), but as I am sure of my integrity and that I am a creator and not a copier of content, I trust that I will gain your trust again and this incident will remain in the album of bad memories.

I remain attentive to your questions, comments and decisions.
