In Blurt we are creating very interesting communities, groups of people who create their own and great content
"their own". People often look past this. I believe the entire concept of stealing others content stems from the mentality of taking taking and more taking without any regard for hard work and value of one's craftsmanship.
This is not the first place where plagiarism is a huge problem. The last few days I spent my own time searching and hunting down plagiarised content. Reported it to the abuse channel on the official discord group. But I wonder what would these people answer if I asked them to steal something from a shop.
Most likely they'd say no. At least I hope they would say no.
I take pride and joy in my work and content. I feel satisfied when I create something for others to enjoy and reflect upon. That feeling is incredible. I have no clue how plagiarism does the same for anyone else. They'd rather think of BLURT as an easy faucet to steal and dump already published content for a few unchallenged upvotes. Abstaining from voting them is one thing, but educating them to do better should hopefully turn the tides.
To add oil to the fire, they'll go around parading their stolen content by mentions and DMs. Where is the pride? Where is the self-respect? Advertising your stolen content? WOW! Unbelievable!
Thank you for your concern and collaboration, it is always important to report when we find plagiarized content because we can be vigilant.
Blurt being a place where there are no negative votes, perhaps it can be lent so that abusive users commit this type of mistakes, but everything in the chain is known and sooner or later those that are missing are discovered and it is thanks to other concerned users such as you, who want to make Blurt a better place.
If users were clear that by making good content, their own and creative, they can make Blurt a reference chain that others like to read, and in this way we all grow, so I am happy to know that you like what you create here because that pleasure is transmitted to other users inside and outside of Blurt who want to read.
Thanks for your encouragement and energy.
Good vibes.
