He's posting and sharing about something you're both passionate about. Be thankful you have a medium like steem in the first place! Besides, what other platform will pay you $1,000 to complain about this? Be thankful. And if it really bothers you, you're also free to go to his post and expose him directly to his readers AND earn rewards for it! :)
I don't believe the steem protocol should have "flagging", as it discourages new, unpopular ideas and promotes censorship.
That's not the point. Post ORIGINAL content and you won't have an issue. Posting other peoples content is stealing and doesn't help the community. The community grows with NEW ORIGINAL content. If someone continues to post regurgitated content from around the internet, you will be flagged and your rep taken down by the community. That is totally fair. If you don't like it, facebook is for you.
exactly the point is - its plagiarism. and if you are not happy I agree with @mericanhomestead facebook is for you.
@allasyummyfood no offense but I guess most of your posts are about food and recipes, have you created all your recipes from scratch?? didn't you see them made by someone else and you made something similar? isn't this plagiarism.
don't hate me I am just asking questions.
Well that's a good question.
edit; Maybe it's more about the photo's. But let's wait for an answer on your question.
thanks.
the post is about "plagiarism" and plagiarism can be about photos and about recipes or anything, but I am not saying she can't do that I just wonder if she would have cared if the reported persondid this about something not related to food or recipes (something taht interest her and she is posting about)
no plagiarism means you take someones work - copy it and then paste it. My recipes are original and created from scratch. I took inspiration from a recipe, tested it, changed some ingredients - cooked it, took pictures of it and made it MY OWN WORK. that is the difference! I hope its clear @tarek-h
"My recipes are original and created from scratch". lol I can't get this one sorry, how come your recipes are original and everything you are cooking exists everywhere and was done before you??
"I took inspiration from a recipe, tested it, changed some ingredients" just tell me you copied it from someone else and it will be easy to understand
that's also called "open source", which is what BitShares is, which created Steem. There's no hate here, I get it...I hope this can help ya accept that this happens and just move on. And seriously, be thankful that it gave you something to write about! I mean jeez, this guy inspired you to write a post that added another ~$1,000 into your pocket! Be grateful!
It isn't plagiarism if you put your own twist on a recipe or whatever, or if you state your sources (I.e. Give credit where credit is due). It is plagiarism if you copy someone's work word for word, or their photo, and then repost it as your own.
Plagiarism can feel like a grey area at times, but based on @allasyummyfood's description, this seems like a pretty clear case of it. ☹️
I am not saying what the guy posted isn't plagiarism
I just wonder if she would have cared if somone did plagiarism about something not related to food or recipes i.e. something that is not related to what she is posting about
I would guess that it's simply easier to spot plagiarism in topics that a person is interested in.
That is a valid point, but just take a look at this maybe you can see the real motif.
@mericanhomestead and @allasyummyfood I believe you spent maybe tremendous time on facebook since it was created and now you are referring to it as a worthless place. Maybe in a couple of years you will say the same about Steemit, or maybe others will do because of the rules you want to emphasize.
