Pobdaily #5 winners: Keep The Community Clean ♻️

(Edited)

Greetings to all active users on Hive. It's been a very rough couple of weeks for me personally which is why the pobdaily challenge announcement was delayed for some weeks now.

This will not be like other past weeks' announcements. It's going to be more like a health talk for the whole pobdaily contestants and other active users who would like to join in on the fun.

FIRSTLY
I would like to brief us a little on the aim of the pobdaily challenge, which is to talk about our daily activities and get to know a little about how each of us spent his or her day in detail including original pictures.

source

This aims to increase more mutual interaction between users and help illustrate the type of social media platform that Hive is all about.

Writing long-form content is one part, while building a real/virtual connection between users can help boost more trust on the Hive blockchain thereby making it more comfortable to use just like we do on other platforms without getting a dim in
return.

Hive is the home of free speech where our voices can be heard without any form of ban or restriction whatsoever unlike other platforms(facebook&instagram)

Let me not bore you much about that.

The pressing issue at hand that needs to be attended to urgently, by every active member in the #pobdaily challenge involves Tag abuse and Plagiarized content which is inappropriate and unacceptable.

source

The stats that I have done manually with pen and paper after visiting each post, shows that we have 281 posts under the pobdaily tags in the last three weeks. Impressive numbers you'll say.

Now here's where things get more interesting...Out of the 281 posts under the tag, 129 of the posts were unique pobdaily posts while 152 other posts do not relate to the pobdaily challenge.

What does this signify?
This means that 54.1% of the total post is Garbage and needs to be thrown into the trash can.

SECONDLY
This is where things go a little bit sideways. The most depressing and disheartening issue I have on my mind right now is plagiarism and fraudulent activities that have been on the rise these past weeks.

source

TBH...I had a rough day on hive earlier today as of the time of writing this post. I was playing detective to a case that involves chasing down the bad guys that has nothing else to do on the blockchain other than stealing other people's content for monetary gains.

source

My first encounter with this issue was from reading a blog by @brittandjosie here talking about how some users' live a fraudulent hive lifestyle.

source

Not long after that, while I was looking out for posts to curate, I got to meet up with @scholaris.pob in a comment section under the #pobdaily tag, where he called out the author @surpretende for plagiarism, which I joined in on it to DV(downvote)the post, this was after making my findings on the post through an SEO plagiarism checker.

This made me stay awhile after curating few posts to start checking posts that might look suspicious, and boom! @kofo account seems to have been consistently abusing the pobdaily tag and never made one post as an entry. He/she doesn't even have an introductory post.

I made the SEO call and found out that it's a plagiarized content which has been posted a month ago by a known #pobdaily abuser @goodimportance. He deleted the post to cover his tracks but that couldn't help.

I made the call on the discord server and he got downvoted to 0pob thanks to @scholaris.pob for taking the necessary steps.

THIRDLY
How does all this concern the pobdaily challenge, well I think it has everything to do with it because all these dumb** imposters are all using the #pobdaily tag which directly points at people participating in the challenge or maybe it's an insider job, maybe it is not? IDK.

WHAT'S NEXT

I had to discuss this with @dwayne16 and we have come to a conclusion that as from this week there will be a little addition to how things are going to be organized under the #pobdaily tag and that will be the use of DV(downvote) on a post that is not about your daily activities i.e blogs that don't relate to the challenge rules as stated here will be considered a direct violation of the challenge rules, and that qualifies you for an automatic disqualification from the contest any further use after this might be considered fraudulent.

PEACE

This is such an eye-opening post. Some of us are entirely novices to this idea. Now that the corrections have been written, there will be a drastic reduction in the number of abusers of the tag.
I am particularly very sorry for the past errors.
In the nearest future I hope to be an active participant in the contest and use the right tags.

No hard feeling mate, just a friendly reminder. You only made use of the tag once so i believe it might have skipped your mind.

I would be looking forwards to your entry @mrenglish.

the use of DV(downvote) on a post that is not about your daily activities i.e blogs that don't relate to the challenge rules as stated here

Check the HERE
Seems like there is a sort of mix-up somewhere. I would like to see the rule for the #pobdaily. I will also run through the tag to see how l got myself to be mentioned as one of the tag abusers.

I'm sure that l don't get into contests/challenges casually but even if l get involved with any, l try as much as possible to know what it's all about. I know that much as a contest validator and l wouldn't flaunt the contest rule anywhere.

But l will check the tag and if l messed up somehow, l want to use this medium to tender my heartfelt apology.

Hope l'm forgiven

I won't be taking things further in order to avoid unnecessary argument, neither would I want to bore anyone reading this comment right now with a screenshot from my phone trying to prove myself.

TheTRUTH is right here on the chain. Am sure it's easy for anyone to find out the truth, which might not be your taste.

It's always important for one to understand the rudiment and rules behind the use of a tag before use. It's quite unfortunate this is happening.

Congratulations to the Winners and kudos to participants of this wonderful contest and thank you @marvinix and @dwayne16 for the support and mention. We hope situations gets better than they are at the moment.

It really is very important to be conscious of the tags we use, though mistakes are meant to happen and no one is perfect but i believe its worth a try to get things organized.

I am sure things will get better or at least we'll get there someday.

I will remove your tags from my previous posts (I think I have only used it twice or thrice). Can I stop getting constant notifications from this same post? It is quite distracting. Thank you

Start with adding the sources, the fact you made this blog is fine but don’t talk about plagiarism when you have no sourcing

Well i guess there a first time for everything. In my own view i thought just pasting the image link from pixabay isnt a violation of image plagiarism, which i guess it is now. Thanks for the info, doing the needful ASAP

Hi @marvinix. My apologies for making such an oversight, it will be taken into account for the next one, I had no idea, it can be said that it is a beginner's mistake. Do you recommend that I go to the post and remove the tag or what action can I take to correct my mistake? in addition to being more careful for the next one. thanks for sharing, it's good that someone tells you what you've done wrong.

We are here to learn and of course we have to be willing to accept the necessary corrections, because otherwise we continue to make mistakes over and over again.

Its definitely just a correction and is meant to just notify authors about it. No hard feeling whatsoever.

Spammers have been trying to use that process to harm the blockchain with plagiarized content, which is why we are letting evwryone know about this and make it easy to get to the root of this fraudulent activities.

The awareness is just to make corrections for future post. Thanks for dropping by @katerinhernandez

Good job @marvinix I can imagine how much time it took you to put this all together... Sure it's a thorough search 🔍. I was corrected of a tag abuse at my first arrival at the community. It's good you putting users through. As much as hive is a place to express one's thought and voice, there has to be rules to guide users through. It's good you stated yours clearly. Thumbs up

Thanks for your kind words ma. It really was a stressful thing to do.

It was only meant to point out how things were with the tag so that it's going to be an easy task for both curators and authors who like to navigate through the specific tag.

Am sure with time things will get better. Thanks for coming around.
