@hive.defender
My bad for reposting my previously posted story. But to clear one thing, I didn't plagiarise. I am also Abe Baron, that is the pen name I am using on Reedsy. I wrote the story myself.
The only mistake I made was to repost my old story on Hive. I'm sorry for violating the rule.

@hive.defender, hopefully you can use this and other instances you came across recently as a learning experience too.
While I do like anti-abuse stance, I hope you understand that things are not always black and white, and neither is to be excessively eliminated or immediately acted upon.
Jumping guns is never a good idea my man, inquiring and correcting mistakes or behaviour is much more fruitful.
The way you are currently handling things can ruin hard earned reputations for innocent authors, and as you may or may not know, reputation can be the real currency on the blockchain.
I understand your justification about this specific post, BUT we know our writers because we actually READ each and every post. And I'm not specifically talking about this. Be really careful about the AI stuff, and please understand and rest assured that we have measures in The Ink Well to distinguish REAL AI crap and/or plagiarism in our authors' writings. And generally speaking, we know how to handle our own, and we do not tolerate abuse, be it plagiarism or any other form of abusive behaviour.
@hivewatchers and most of the anti-abuse community do know this!
Doing the right thing is good, doing the right thing in a bad way is BAD
Thanks for your understanding mate!
I saw @hive.defender reblogging this post
I've ran two different sites on the same article they reblog and it just highlighted these.
Spouting about protecting Hive from AI written content doing it's patrol like what they did to this post.
One thing I learned from these AI detection tools is that they aren't to be trusted and there are false positive cases. If the one running hive.defender is a seasoned curator who actually consumes the content they judge, they probably would have guessed which posts are BS just by reading them organically instead of copy pasting and rely on false alarms.
