Besides the moral argument of plagerism, the risk of getting caught wich is extremely high makes it a complete waste of time. If people would just spend the time to make there own content, they would soon realize that its just easier to do it the right way.

Great post, after learning more about this I can see now how this can hurt steemit. Good for you! I do see how content and having a story behind the pictures is much better. And thank you for helping me a couple days ago. I truely was confused :) and will have a much better account now.

np

No wonder @nosoart's artworks are being stolen, he just makes awesome sketches. Thanks for the heads up @themarkymark. Will give this fellow artist a warm welcome and the recognition he deserves, for sure!

P.S. You handled this situation really well.

Great work @themarkymark. I agree with everything going on plagiarism and identity theft is still the number one issue we face as a community. It's pretty fucking awesome that you were able to get them an account set up so quickly and get them here and posting. Just another point proving you are one of our better witnesses. Thank you for all that you do.

"rewardKiller()" hahahaha awesome

:)

This is just awesome! Out with the bad.. in with the good. I love the approach you took to rectifying this situation. Would have been easy to just bash the plagiarist. But you definitely went the extra mile. Keep up the good fight, my friend! 🤛

good job bro his work is impressive

Plagiarism is BAD

Great work, man!

Plagiarising just to get the SBDs. This is so bad

Plagiarism kills the creativity. We should not allow that kind of activity if we want to make this platform clean.

Thank you so much for the heads up. This plagiarist fooled me also.

Thank goodness we're recovered. Fell a victim as while.

Hola @themarkymark
Cero voto a los plagiarios.
Gracias por exisitir

Wow... Amazing bro... Superb

Very disappointing.

I shouldn’t be, but I’m always by horrified by plagiarism on this platform. I’m glad you exposed this person and went to effort of finding this original artist. Great post as others have said, this was a good read to know others are paying attention.

good post, I've followed you and given voute, because I'm new to steemit, to experience your steemit to me and help me to maximize my steemit, thanks from me @ fauzan93.

good on you for helping an artist get recognition - I am a artist painter and musician

What a great way to deal with the situation and bringing in a very good artist to this platform, which definitely would have taken some time from your busy schedules. And by doing this, you also highlight @nosoart to get the required support.

Great work @themarkymark

Scheduled to be shared to my Twitter Account ! A good post to raise more awareness about plagiarism here on Steemit

I know how it is... Dude stole almost 100 of my videos on YouTu... SafeSpaceTube impersonating me. Over 13k people subscribed to his channel because they thought it was my account...
Some of those videos have over 100k views. I reported the channel many times and it still exists... Wit my content. If only there were some info like:
"Hey I'm not the original author. the real guy is at www(...)"
He even stole my avatar and banner which took me few hours to make in PS....

Damn bad!! The applauds goes to him while the original author freezes in the cold.

Stealing another man's work and acting like it'syours is probably the lowest a man can go. Great job on winning another disciple. Cheers

There you go again @themarkyman. Kept following you as this encourages me to put in more. Plagiarism kills...

Aaarrrrgggghhhh. I've upvoted that scumbag. That is so completely disgusting I can't even speak.

I have a small mission on plagiarists going. When it's appropriate I contact the original author to let them know. I've heard a few of the excuses... Just yesterday one claimed he wasn't a plagiarist because he sourced the copied article. Made it easy to verify.

Thank you. I really appreciate the fight.

Doesn't embarrassment scare the person if he is posing off someone else and using their work. I mean it'd be pretty embarrassed to death if something like this happened to me.

Great job !!! :3

thanks for your this kind of job.
wellcome dear @nosoart
i love your work.

i appreciated your hard work and i want a person like you who work for steemit success keep it up brother

This is weird; I have been following him a while and he had a high reputation. I was doing google image searches and they led back to steemit because I was considering curating them.

Reputation on Steemit is meaningless, I mean look at the #1 rep on Steemit right now...

hahahhaha burn

It is lovely how the highest rep account on our Steem platform really has only one true follower. But a whole lot of people think his spam is trash. One of the major glitches in our system.

I also did a google search on a article about a week and a half ago. It kept coming back to Steemit too and I know darn well I read paragraphs of that article somewhere else. There were just things in the article that no one could forget, it was originally out of a British Satire article. What I think some have gone to doing is taking different paragraphs from different articles and pasting them into a post to make a whole new article. Rather creative on their part I might add but I have a motto as a blogger: If I said I read I read it. Few on my regular blog will argue with that statement because they've put through the test and they know I will go find it and prove it to them.

Art like this isnt easy to create. It also takes many years of practice. It would be terrible to have my art claimed to be owned by another. Great catch themarkymark.

Good work detective Marky Mark! Well done. And @nosoart, you need more recognition! You are a very talented artist - love the monkey reading the newspaper - too cute and the kitten looking through mum or dads glasses. I'll follow you and check out more of your work. Hey @themarkymark, are we allowed to share someone's stuff, ie: an article, review, drawing etc? I joined a little while ago but haven't spent a great deal of time on here, though I do not know why as when I do come on, I really like it, but then I forget about it. Not old enough to be going senile, so I have just no excuse. Steemit need to promote more or maybe send a promo email with a summary of the last week or something, hmmmmm :)? Are there emoji's on here. It tells me to insert from clipboard, but I'm like Clipboard, what clipboard?? ;)

I like the series Fireflies, and Serenity)) I voted for you. The drawings are excellent. A wonderful technique of drawing.

I've been supporting florianart because I liked the art but now realize it was plagiarised, so feel bad and will definitely not support them in future.

Thanks for taking care of this and for helping @nosoart get started here!
I'll message him to let him know about a couple of art contest/curation opportunities​.
There's also a new initiative called the Welcome Wagon so I let them know about @nosoart as well!

Congratulations!
I will be following the new account, and thanks for bringing another artist on board :)
I have (sort of) the same problem with a user who has been posting (reworded) paragraphs from a travel site + photos of that site.
He is using bots, taking votes up to 4$ per post and even though I have let the steemcleaners know, nothing has happened .. What would you suggest?
Glad to cast another witness vote, Thanks again!

One of the best post I have read for a long time @themarkymark . How you handle this shows proffessionalism. I will follow @nosoart from now and he does really nice work!
