COPIED ARTWORKS
After successfully hosting a contest, one concerned user here told me that some entries were just copied from internet. It was so disappointing to know it coz I really did check the entries before including them on the list and I even disqualified some entries coz they we're just downloaded from internet. Indeed the OC isn't reliable as well, so we really need to do further research on our own.
What's more disappointing is, i trusted the user(s) and he/she already gained many supporters, that means, those supporters trusted him/her as well.
I won't specify the gender nor give the username, I don't want make a commotion here. As long as I know the truth, I'll just gonna ignore him/her. But if he/she will continue to do it, I will for sure report him/her directly to RC as plagiarizer(s).
I felt like I was scammed after giving the prizes. And I'm one of the users here who strongly opposed to plagiarism and spamming so I felt guilty after knowing the truth. I hope the user(s) will have conscience about on themselves.
Comments
Don't mention names here.. thanks Nireject ko yyungiba, mechanics yun actually naisama yung materials, yung iba sumunod naman, but then yung isa akala ko legit so hndi ko pinansin kc matagal na sya dto at puro art blog ginagawa nya
Wag magtiwala agad agad. Hindi lahat ng nagsusulat dito eh makatotohanan na sakanila lahat.
At least now I know about her real identity
Oh sorry i just want to know her Opinion about it because I saw her entry. π It is beautiful.
Seryoso ka? Bka pinapatamaan mo sya? π
Luh diko siya pinapatamaan . Nagandahan lang talaga ako sa kanyang gawa π
D nga? Haha..pwd mo tagalogin gusto mo sabihin..dnmn nya maiintindihan.m
Natratranslate kaya nga comment natin ghourl. Tsaka hindi ko talaga siya pinapapatamaan. π
Mali mali translation ng tagalog to engliss..haha..
Thats bad but anyway I'm still happy that i join your contest and experiencing the enjoyment while I'm drawing krillin haha
Haha... at least your artwork is safe right..
Yah haha
Why can't people just make a little effort on their own ability to make a right success in life ? That is just too bad, this are the type that cannot grow and will be blaming others for their misfortune when it comes to reality, God bless you for detecting that fellow, he could have taken glory over those worked it out with with pains
Actually, someone from here helpedt about that, without him, I won't be able to know that the artwork was copied, coz i trusted the user.. that was actually disappointing
It's really not your fault in my openion. We all know that the OC isn't always reliable and it's impossible to check every entry. But you could have asked for prove that they own that drawing. For example, you could have asked them to draw or write something on the painting to be sure it's not a random picture from the internet, I hope i explained my idea well.
There's actually mechanics but many didn't follow. And i trusted the user coz she/he have many posted artworks already.. i thought all were legit..
Oh alright. But don't go too hard on yourself. It's not really your fault. You trusted them while they only wanted the money and cheated. If you are planning another contest in the future then you know how things works now.
Nung nabasa ko ung post mo about apology accepted.. bumalik ako sa mga winners.. and meron ngang isa.. hahaha.. sana binalik na lang ung bngy mong prize
Cguro kung makonsensya sya..haha
Hahaha.. pero sa bait mong yan.. baka di mo na din tnggapin if ibabalik nya.. xaka nag sorry na din xa..
Kung ibabalik nya.. hndi na mababawi pa kung na upvote na
Hindi na nya ibabalik yan.. mabait ka kz e..
Don't give any name..you can edit your article and remove the copied content.. earning money by deceiving people only brings back sorrows..and whoever do these kind of activities,they couldn't correct themselves..I am sure , whoever did this,they will do it in future..
And did in the past as wel. π
Yeah ..I know.. that's why I am so sure about the future..
Oh my, I can't believed that even artwork would be copied. I'm really speechless. π
I'll chat you later
It happens sometimes, some people can not just be real with themselves. Sorry about that
True.. but it was so sad coz i trusted the user
Aww so sad. May idea ako kung sino hehe.
Ibang lahi?
Is it the one with [REDACTED]?
Hoi wag magmention ng name.. edit it. π
Hahaha, I'm just asking. I thought the guy remade or or something.
Not him.. π i know his was legit
I have an idea whos that user, I noticed it long time ago π Hindi ko alam kung sya nga talaga pero feeling ko lang π If that user is quite long here and that user also posting an artwork article. Parang naniniwala na nga ako sa hinala ko π
I trusted the user already, d ko inaakala na copied pla yun
I can't blame you kasi puro artwork talaga mga article nya hehe
Sinabi mo pa
So sad....why people are doing this ,only for gaining points??how can they do it?? Shame on them..!!
For money.. i can't blame her.. at least she said sorry to me
how sad nman,, why can't they just make things out of their own,inuto k na nga iniscam k pa... just sad,when others exerted efforts just to qualify and be the best but others just stole theirs at the internet.. sabagay, d lng nman ang araw. let him/her have this day
Yeah, I'll let this pass, but next time I won't gonna approve the artworks of that user. It's too unfair for those who tried their best to submit an artwork but didn't get to the top.
kaya nga sis.. kelangan pla tlga ng further investigation at d sapat ang isang checker lng
Yun ang mali ko, dapat hndi ako nagtiwala,kc kilala konandya at dami na nya post bout arts, who would've thought na hndi pla lahat legit, for the sake of money nagawa nya mangopya.. my talent naman sana sya
Huh? Downloaded? Grabe naman yun.
It's clear that it's either people don't understand what plagiarism is or they choose to damn the consequences. This action by whoever was involved is a clear act of plagiarism and I am glad that you did the needful. We are need to be wary of either being culprits or victims in the act of plagiarism.
I'll wait for the explanation of that user..
Hala..kung sino man sya,sana naman nakonsensya sya..dami pa naman naniwala sa kanya na user,even make it on final selection of the contest. He/she even have the guts to join your contest Ms.Jane knowing that your the one who have been pushing a campaign against plagiarism and spamming. Did that person did it for another purpose?or just after the prize?what a shame.
For sure just after the prize. I actually know the user for quite long now. And she's/he's been posting art articles, I thought all her/his artworks are legit, sad to say, some are just downloaded. π₯
Oh my. What a disgrace.I feel so sorry for you Ms.Jane after what you had done in putting so much effort in organizing this event and investing a great amount of cash for prizes you dont deserve this at all it was like a scam,why not report that to the support?bcoz that person even got the prize.
Nakuha na nya ang prize hndi na mababawi pa, and this contest isn't supported by RC, we all know that.. palampasin kkomuna ngayon, pro d ko na iaapprove pa artworks nya
omG Ms. Jane bcoz of my curiosity ngsearch ako on my own.π I cant believe it..tsk tsk haaays.
The user said sorry already
Your so nice Ms. Jane. For me, damage has been done. i Trust her,feel like I was fooled .π₯
Yes i was fooled and i won't gonna let it happen again
I really feel so bad about it since I was supporting her all the way..hndi ko alam pro feeling ko pinagtatawanan nya lng ako for all the admiration I have given to what I thought her artworks. haaays..guess I just have to move on with it,I unsub her already nway.
I guess i will do that too.. madami sya naloko.. d ko alam anong comment ng mga supporters nya.. bka mabash lng ako
We are just humans, we cannot rely on our instinct and knowledge and they violators know the ways and means, how to escape and pass any hole. What have been done cannot be undone, all we can do is hope that those who plagiarize and spams will change, that they will realized, that a foul smell how deeply buried still the smell will find its way to be inhaled.
Don't be guilty it is not your fault. You are in good faith hosting that contest. They are the guilty ones. Hoping for change.
I really they will read this and feel conscience about what they've done and hopefully they will stop it. They're gaining supports from the lies... why can't they be good here
Oh my!! It would be unfair sa mga participants na deserving sana. .
True. Participants na nag effort gumawa ng artwork kaht hndimganda bsta originally made. I really felt so guilty after knowing that. Bakit kc hndi sinabi agad sakn ni jihan.. huhu
Hala itong si Jihan talaga late nagsabi π ... But seriously pano mo naconfirm? Charge to experience nalang sis.. Ang gaganda ng entries pa naman..
Si jihan nag confirm.. nagkachat kmi sa messenger at sinend yung proof
Parang alam ko na yan... sayang bet ko pa naman din yun
Bet ko rin yun..
Oh that's quite saddening i hope it's not someone i truly support:<
Nope, i know whom you referring to and it's not that user.
I'm glad to hear thatπ
I can tell that the artwork of that user are legit..
Have you Identified them? βΊ
Yup. @Jihan helped me..
Now take back back rewards from them, and give it usπͺπ
Can't anymore. π₯
Humm
@jane.. was thinking of opening a telegram group... what do you say?
Sure. bat there's rc telegram already, wanna join there?
Sure. But still I think we need a separate group where there will be the quality writers only. And we should klook after each other' back. Look how you got scammed todayππ we can't share that on rc telegram as the scammer may be in there too. But add me there. I have to check. Um curiousππ
Ok you initiate it..haha
Hays...hindi ata binasa yung mechanics ng contest mo or habol lang talaga nya yung prize sa give away..nakakalungkot isipin na nanalo siya sa hindi naman niya sariling gawa at pinaghirapan..
Gawain na cguro nya dati pa to attract viewes as i noticed here, many likes artwork articles. I rejected some coz i saw their artworks on the internet. Unfortunately, my nakalusot pa dn. .tsk
Mahirap talaga isa isahin..meron talaga makakalusot,, at saka nagtiwala ka/katiwala-tiwala kaya hindi mo rin alam kung ano yun nagawa niya..
Medyo matagal narn sya dto.. dami ng pinost,yyun pla hndi lahat legit
Mahirap talaga malaman kung hindi mo talaga susuriin,,di ba yun ang madalas sabihin ng mga math at science teacher(^_^)
Nakalimutan ko na sir. ππ
Hahahahaha(^_^)
It's too sad and really dissappointing :(
Wanna know the name? Telegram
Sure :)
Oh no :( Sana naman ibalik niya yung prize. Mas deserve pala nung iba :( Ang dami nga pong nabibiktima ng plagiarism lalo na sa mga artworks. Kawawa naman yung artist na mismong naggawa nun
Ganun tlga.wala na tyo magagawa.. .
That's so bad to hear madam, why they ended to do that, there is a lot of giveaways or contest here if they can't do drawing then don't enter to contest. This is not tolerable to do especially you spend money for that prize
I spent $20+ in that contest. And it's so sad to know that some on the top list has been plagiarized. And given that I strongly oppose to plagiarism, it's really so sad.
I hope that case will be solve. It is so bad to the others who do fair rules but did not win.
Unfair tlga. π
Sana po mafix yan madam at mabigay yung prize sa karapatdapat
Wala na..andun na yung prize na send na..haha.. huti kung ibabalik
Aw, sayang po okay lang po yan ma'am lesson learned naman po sa susunod check nalang po muna hehe. Sana wala na ganon sa next contest
Wala ng next art contest..haha..hirap kya magjudge
oh that was so sad a feeling of betrayal. I just read the contest only I did not join because I know for myself that I can't do it in terms of Art.
It is really sad especially when you trusted the person.
oh so sad it is. hopefully everything will gonna be fine and that person will play fair next time.
I'm really hoping so.. it's unfair for others
yes really unfair for those who made an effort and join honestly.
And the worst is, the artwork won the prize
Oh that's too sad πͺ If that entry won, it would be unfair to the other contestants. Well, I don't want to think about it, but for other's it will surely be. Haaays, we can't just anyone here now.
The artwork was one on the top list. And I guess you know the user as he's/she's been here for quite long already. And already have many supporters , that's why I don't want to expose the name coz i might have many bashers. π
And that would be another issue against you π
Well, I searched the internet just now and guess what? Two of the top entries are not original. I won't comment which ones. I'm not sure kung ginaya lang nung isa yung mga nakita kong kaparehas na images kasi minsan yung iba nag dodraw sila na may ginayahan sa internet. While the other one (known blogger here) yung art niya eksaktong kaparehas nung nakita ko sa internet. Hahaaays πͺ
Sya tinutukoy ko.. yung known blogger, yung isa alam ko redraw lng.. my proof kc yung ibang articles nyapanu nya ginawa.. yung isa disappointing tlga.. nagtiwala ako, kaht ikaw db kala mo legit mga gawa nya?
Very disappointing nga. Isa pa naman yun sa pinakagusto kong artwork. Now, I have doubts na tuloy sa iba pa niyang ina-upload dito. Chineck ko pa nga yung isa niyang entry kung may kaparehas din π Though, I'm not actually a fan of her, snob kasi hahaha
I knew it π Grabe dalawa pa naman entry nya.
I think I know him/her. I will search the title of his/her entry on google to proved if my suspect is correct.
Search the picture not the title
Phone lang gamit ko e. Diko alam magsearch ng picture. Matagal na din kasi akong curious sa mga previous artwork nung pinaghihinalaan ko na yun e.
I-long press mo lang po mommy Yen yung image then click search with google lens then ipapakita na sayo ni google yung mga kaparehas na images.
Alam ko na esciisc. Tama nga hinala ko. Nagshort post nako about sa kanya before e pero not intentionally yun e. May nakita nakong ebidensya na guilty sya π Pero sesearch ko padin π
hahaha ang daming curious π sayang yung nabuild niyang name dito. Masisira lang dahil sa isang artwork.
search mo username nya makikita mo sa mga comments π
Sinearch ko pero wala namang something unusual π
meron hahaha. Chinat ko na si jane for confirmation and tama nga ako.
meron hahha. chinat ko na si Jane sa telegram , no doubt nako na sya nga yun.
Hindi sya nag ingat e. Napansin ko na nuon yon. Hindi nalang din ako nagcomment kasi ayaw ko ng gulo haha. Nag unsubscribed nalang ako sa kanya.
Dati naka subscribe din ako sa kaya pero nag unsubscribe din ako siguro one month ago haha di kasi namamansin super papansin pa naman ako sa mga comments ko sa articles niya. Amazed kasi ako sa mga cooking articles niya tapos trying hard din ako mag comment sa mother tongue niya π π
Kahanga hanga naman kasi talaga haha. Kaso one time sumali sya sa isang photography contest tapos pinakita ko sa asawa ko entry nya. Sabi ng asawa ko parang galing daw kay google. Binura nya nga yun e. Nagpost pako nun to share her artwork kasi nagandahan ako haha. Tapos eto may incident na naman na ganito.
It means hindi ito ang unang offense niya. Well, hayaan na lang natin. Ang importante malinis ang ating mga konsensya dito haha
Nag apologize na daw. Let's move on hehe
Oh dear.. so sorry to read this. That is so disheartening :( Can you retract the prize that you have given? It is really sad that we have such individuals here who seemed not to have a conscience whatsoever and that their main goal to make money, no matter how, even if it is the dishonest way. I think this goes back to our discussion that if the individual does not provide details or proof of work, we should reject them?
The user is quite old here already, and been posting many artworks so I thought that the user can be trusted as many believes his/her art skills. Next time, I won't gonna approve the artworks of that user. Unfortunately, we can't retrieve the prize.. it was already upvoted.
:( Good thing you know now. I am intrigued how did they spot the copied artworks? I am weary of some of the posters here myself. Maybe you may want to reconsider naming them so that they don't continue to scam others? But I am not sure how is the best way to do it diplomatically. If only I am next to you and you can whisper to my ears.
I can't mention the name coz i don't want to have more bashers here, i already had enough after having that spammers hunt. I don't know if you know that. π i am one of the hunters..but already unpublished the articles bout them Someone told me bout that and sent me proofs... i need to be more cautious now and strict in approving articles
I contacted you on tg actually. Haha it's less of a hassle than in twitter.
Cge
Ok.. you may delete the number now. I have taken down your number :) Ah yah, you were muted. Dang... Yah, better not. I will beep you in a while, after I mop :D
Sure
That is sad to hear. They earn some that they doesnt deserve.
Exactly, i just gave prizes to plagiarizers. π
Well atleast we learn some lesson that s conduct a real investigation before we proceed to that thing. Its already happen so we cant do something about it now
That's the hard part of being a moderator.
Online world is different there must be way to check it but still failed. So its okay Lady @Jane just conduct more effort in investigation next time:-)
Haha.. i will next time
I will help you next time research and observing is one i like to do most. I learn alot o that
She didn't read your article about plagiarism you have posted before, but she/ he joined the contestπ
I felt bad about it... but at least now I know that the user is a plagiarizer
grabe naman po yun. nanalo po ba sya? grabe kung nanalo sya wala naman syang ginagawa.nanalo pa
Unfortunately, yes. The artwork was one on the top list
Pag magpapart contest ka dapat with video sa post nila habang drinadraw yung entry nila. Halatang halatado naman kasi sa mga nagpasa sayo na downloaded picture lang because walang materials na nakapaligid at sobrang nasa gitna ang photo. Nung nakita ko yung Photo ng mga nag submit parang hindi makatotohanan yung iba at yung iba halatadong photoshop wala kasing ganun sa art. May mga masyadong light, may sobrang dark yung color ng picture. kung magpipicture sila dapat yung natural looks with materials and the step kung pano nila drinaw diba
