Thank you for writing on this.  I’m also of the view that if someone want to use a feature image then it has to relate to the topic. More over there are a lot of free images on web one has to just search for creative commons. I  also use pixabay and credit it. It’s important that we have to protect this platform and uphold its value.

It is very sad to see people plagiarizing other people’s work. People should realize that it is a criminal offence to plagiarize. More over we want to see new and original content . Let’s work hard to produce our own content. You did well to expose this person I’m next he won’t do such a thing.

There are many ‘public domain’ images.  Many are created and used all over the net.  Some are like Gettyimages which the name comes on the bottom for attribution.  I wouldn’t take what looks like a ‘private image’ … btw… did you see the porn pictures?  When I was looking through the already uploaded images I saw Porn.

kaylar – Yeah. Sometimes mine don’t work either. Most of my images come from the same site so why can I download one and not the others?  I figure it’s my laptop was acting weird.  From what I understand it’s OK to borrow images.  Even if they are not free or public domain, but you get permission and give proper credit, you can use them.  Isn…[Read more]

If I don’t put in an image, I won’t be published.  Sometimes, do to the glitchy nature I can’t dl an image.  Having written an item I have to find an image.  Some older images work… some… I have to… borrow

 
Yes. Do be careful. One member’s unintentional mistake could get the site owners in trouble and it would be bad for everyone. As for the members who are engaging in this practice, I’m not going to call them out. That’s up to the site owners to handle. Not my call. I’ve over this! The rant got it out of my system. 🙂 Hoping the site stays online…[Read more]

Doctor, people are more worried about Plagiarism than other conditions. The way and style of writing and the words one has to use are being missed out in their anxiety. You reminded them nicely.

I do not understand why the word ‘hate’  should not be used? It depends on the topic you have chosen. To hate people committing irregularities is not a…[Read more]

If your article is found somewhere else on the web it is immediately removed frmn here and earnings are deleted

I did nit know writing on hatred was not allowed. Anyways such things are good so as to maintain decorum of the place

Good that you reprted it. People need to be taught a lesson

That is true. I wonder what sort of vulgar word was used that may come into violation. Because as we are culturally diverse, Things may come across like what we call violation may not apply to other. Then again we have to let the support work on that. As that may solve problem in sites perspective instead of what we consider as violation. That’s…[Read more]

Glad you received your payment with no problems 🙂

I guess the best thing to do is make sure all your posts have a positive theme. That’s why I like to write about things I love like music x

I am sorry this has happened for something you wrote completely yourself. It is strange. Hopefully you will get a satisfactory answer soon x

I don’t know why people try to get away with plagiarism it is pointless and a waste of time x

Thank you for clarifying this. I didn’t realise you didn’t have to use a featured image I thought you had to. I always put pictures that are relevant to my articles but I think I should be more careful about where I get them from.

It is reassuring that Admin are looking at blogs all the time. I think it is fair to assume that if none of your articles have been rejected by the time you reach payout levels then they should all be fine.
