@Jane
more from that month
PLEASE READ: I really think moderators in each community should be strict in accepting articles. I stumbled in @Ozzyy's article yesterday and it's one of our topic there. This morning I was summoned again to check the article of a new user. The user literally copied the whole page. The original writer is one of the writers here who's genre is writing about cryptocurrencies. This is insane. As what I've said to @Ozzyy Moderators shouldn't allow auto approval to users to avoid accepting this kind of article. There should be more than one moderator in every community as it is hard to moderate many articles submitted each day. Pointless articles as well as plagiarized and the rubbish ones should be rejected. User who will get 3 successive violation to the community rules will be muted in that certain community. And another thing, community such as open for all or accepting any kind of posts should be removed. Obviously, users can submit any kind of articles in those community even if it's plagiarized and pointless. I think through strict policy here, the plagiarizers and spammers will be eliminated. @Read.Cash @Ozzyy @wakeupkitty @thesatoshistore @telesfore @Erdogantalk @scottcbusiness what do you think?

Again? I think they should face the consequence of their action.
That's why moderators should be more strict and shouldn't give auto approval to avoid this kind of issue
Agree!
They should but with a warning first
I don't think they take warning seriously.
It's nice of you to come up with such idea, also I think, although it's a suggestion, articles that should be approved shoved be or always be exclusive, to allow users write their own articles, original content. Except if he/she indicates who, where and when it was published
Yes i second this, if you're going to copy articles then you must give credit to the original author
Thanks for your feedback
True.. some even asked for permission to the real author first before they copied it. But these newbies and plagiarizers are really insane.
True, and it should be relevant to the title of the community. That's why moderators should be more strict in accepting any kind of articles.
I agree, communities should be like folders, when you go into a community called comedy, you shouldn't be seeing articles about heart surgery. Also plagiarized articles should give credit to the original authors or get rejected.
Indeed, strict policy in every community. I hope moderators will read this.
The communities would if they stick to the rules. One topic, one language. How come it's so hard to understand?
Exactly, but may moderators gave auto approval, which created this mess
Right to have a good and quality community, moderators should've focus on articles coming, to see if its relevant to the community to be published, or plagiarized and exclusive, they might check it berofe have an approval.
Exactly, but how can we do it now, many moderators already gave auto approval to many users, and these post all you want should really be removed
I can see how there would be a problem in a lot of cases. To be honest though when it comes to the 'Open for All' and other communities that accept many topics, I think having those communities can be helpful to some. Even I have posted things on them. Sometimes it just helps me get through writers block. I do try to make it something coherent though even if it's not very long.
I know, as I also submit articles there before. But to stop this issue about spamming and plagiarizing, we need to be more strict. Those open for all can still accepts any articles given that it is EXC, with quality content and not plagiarized from other author's article. If so, the user should give credit to the original writer.
I see your point and on that I agree with you 100%
Thank you
I think what you suggest will give fairness for those writers who painstakingly wrote quality article just to be approved by the community, while others has no conscience copying the hard work of a writer and receiving earnings which should not be on the first place be given to them. I appreciate your concern and being a real moderator.
They can actually asked permission first if they want to copy the article, always give credit to the original writer. But many don't do that. And there are specific topic on every community, so they should only submit an article relevant to the topic of the community
Oh, i agree with u po, i'm a moderator of open for all n random articles po, if u want to remove it po, it won't be a problem to me po, i just don't know if @kpopauthor n @Lejay28 would both agree with it po, i was even blocked by someone nga po yesterday because i wasn't able to approve the article he submitted there po
You can change your title into a specific topic. Then do not give auto approval to anyone. Always check for exc articles and reject who will violate the rules. Put your reason why you rejected that article. If you got blocked because of that, you can submit an appeal to rc
Opo, but i will talk first po mna to either @Lejay28 or @kpopauthor po as they r the ones who created it po n thank u po n i will do that po if i experience the same thing po
If you want to retain that community, it's okay, for as long as you won't accepts articles with no EXC, pointless and plagiarized without giving credits to the original writer.
This issue is escalating. Some new users don't just want to put in the hard work to write articles. Some have even apparently joined this site to plagiarise articles for use on other sites. This is intellectual theft pure and simple.
Yeah just like the issue with that article of yours, btw, how was it now? Did you message that author in opera?
I have identified the actual culprit via the opera news app. I haven gotten consent to update the community watch with the update as well as other infractions by the same culprit. I will post the update asap.
You can submit it to readcash community i guess, the community watch has been hidden. Maybe it's rc who did that. So do you know now the rc username of that culprit?
I am currently trying to uravel that as the identify used in opera news could be fake or stolen.
I agree on you @Jane. I think even just greeting like good morning should be rejected because If I'm not mistaken I read that short post is use to announce important matters.haha .what do you think?
I actually said to ozzyy as well that short post shouldn't be submitted to any community. Just publish it but not submit to community, anyway the subscribers can still read it.
Yeah. I already did that. Before I didn't know that. ahaha
It is up to the admin, the one who started the community what the rules are. If you ask me the one's I (help) to moderate are very strict, more strict than what I see with most communities. Read Cash told us one language, one specific topic. Most communities are so messy you can find nothing back of a topic. One moderator can do a great job. I do not see any point in moderating 24/7 and accepting everything at once. Why should I? The more moderators the more mistakes are made. It is not about quantity but quality, that's what we are looking for. Quality, real good content, no notes, etc. I do not care if I am the only one posting in my communities. They are there for me in the first place. @Heartbeat1515
Well It's better to do that to make your community messy. Btw, do you have other community aside from free writing?
well I don't know much about the issue so I can't say about this article :-( I just want to react since it notified my inbox
We all should be aware of every issue here in order for us to understand the things happening here and things we shouldn't do here
yeah but I'm still new here and maybe still not see the whole things that's why I keep not directly involving myself to somethings I don't know haha.
That's the safest way to do here for newbies like you.
Yeah that's true but it doesn't mean I'm afraid to engage on some troubles i just don't want to go on a place i don't know or rather say i will not getting involve without knowing the truth of
Lol, seems like you're saying you're capable to engage to some troubles. 😅 but anyway, thank you for being a responsible user of rc
I am of course as far i know what i fighting for haha
I really think Moderators should strictly adhere to the rule that what's posted should border on whatever the community is based on, but sadly, there are too many groups with generalized topucs where a lot of nonsense is posted. There should be a huge slash in the number of communities that will target these pointless communities. Auto-approval should only be given to users who have countlkessly proven to only post useful, meaningful content.
Right, many users are hardheaded violating the rules, but for sure moderators can help to solve this issue.
Short post like greetings should be limited. I don't find it relevant when you only greet everyone in here and spam the notification.
U are right, moderators should have no mercy for articles that are just copied, and articles with nonsense, I admire that in this community, are strict rules and it also pleasure that I can find here valuable posts/articles thanks to you. Hope this situation gets better by time, and mods and RC will be more aware of this issues.
Well, I don't think this issue of scamming and plagiarism is reducing at all. I wonder why some people can not just use their brain to write anything at all. Can moderators know articles that are plagiarized?
Valuable enough to be considered. Plagiarism is an offense to the original writer and user doing that should be penalized according to norms. I would suggest mute for 1 month..
am also one of the moderators of a community by Dolores and if am online and their are aubmitted articles that need moderation, I really have to view it.I reject articles without exc mark on them or useless or very short for an article
