This guide is a revision of the previous post published by Steemcleaners.
Last year we posted Identity & Content Verification Guide: When to Ask and When Not To. Keeping up with who has and hasn't verified is a huge undertaking. It is just as daunting for contributors to be proactive in making the community aware that the content they post does indeed belong to them.
Identity & Content Verification
Today we want to introduce the first tool on hivewatchers.com that will be available to the community to report and lookup 'Identity & Content Verification'.
The concept is simple.
Anyone can fill out the Verification Form with the Hive username, a link to the post where the verification information is posted, a link to any external site such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or own website that the users provides to prove their identity or content ownership. They can also include any additional information. A member of @hivewatchers will review the entries.
The field 'Username' is unique. If something needs to be changed you will have to contact a member of @hivewatchers.
Fields:
- 'Username (from Hive ecosystem)' - Please do not include the @ symbol.
- 'Hive Post' - A link to the Hive Blog post where a user has posted their verification information.
- 'Media Link' - A link to any external website that proves their online identity or content ownership. The external website must include mention of Hive. Adding the word "Hive" is sufficient. This word can be removed from the external website, once Hivewatchers verify the authorship.
- 'Additional Information' - Please provide any additional information or links you think are relevant. If a user has more than one website or social media account they may list the links to those websites here.
Anyone can see if a user has been submitted using the Verification Lookup table and the status of the submission.
We want to express to the community that this is not an ironclad 100% guarantee method to ensure that the user reported is who they say they are or that the user owns the content they are posting. This is meant to provide information to the community that they can use to make their own decisions on who to upvote and support.
Who Should Use Identity & Content Verification
If you haven't already, read our Identity & Content Verification Guide: When to Ask and When Not To.
This tool is not designed for reporting the average Hiveian. You'll notice that there is no field for community members to upload images. That field is for special cases where individuals need an alternative method for verifying such as a temporary Facebook or Twitter post. Some users don't want to share their content outside of Hive ecosystem.
Website Development
We want to thank everyone who has taken the time to use the new Google form to report abuse! This has been a great success in reducing the amount of time we spend researching, logging & commenting.
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions you can contact @hivewatchers in Discord.

Note: Please report all abuse in the web form.

i looked. seems it burns a % of my token every time i post - and what i get back, is less than the cost to do it, so i kinda stopped ... is there any good tags i should use ( have a look at what i DID do on there ) that would increase my upvote ( like, does it have trails like here, and its predecessor used to ( probably does again )?
Hello, I am new to this wonderful platform
If you will be spamming comments, you are likely to end up blacklisted by the community.

Hello. Can you help me to block to the one who use my photos and information here in hive? 😭😭😭 What to do?
Dear friend @steemcleaners , you have not posted for a long time since your experience is important to everyone at Hive. I liked the very interesting fact that he has captured the following idea: "It is equally overwhelming for collaborators to be proactive in making the community aware that the content they publish belongs to them", which is precisely what I try to do every day With my experience on Yoga, publish based on my creativity, achieving the Variants of them from a posture to give more breadth to this art of yoga. Successes in his healings from Venezuela he writes and greets him @omarrojas.

@steemcleaners!
@bpcvoter3 passed you the virtual joint!If you do not want to receive these comments, please reply with !STOP
Please stop downvoting my account.
I publish all my own content.
I deleted a post a few days ago a few minutes after I posted it, and reposted it a few days later. Hivewatchers left a comment on my 2nd post. I wasn't blacklisted and it seems very premature for you to start downvoting my posts. Please stop.
Hey! Why are you donwvoting my posts?
Maybe stop downvoting my posts.
You want us to not post on Hive?
Hello @steemcleaners
You have recently started downvoting my posts recently.
I think this is an mistake.
I was first penalized by Hivewatchers over 2 years ago for post recycling.
However, the Spamminator account stopped zeroing out my posts over a year ago, because I stopped post recycling.
Please remove me from your downvote list because I post only original material, and have done so for over two years.
Thank you.
