Membership Validation post by @mauriceetukudo : 23rd November, 2021.

Hello world of football, i hope to be a part of this great community and i had to go through the community page and saw this post about membership validation and the steps involved including going back to our achievement 3 in newcomers community of which i did very well.
This is my entry point on the membership validation post and i pray it goes a long way for me.

SORT OF POSTS ILL BE CREATING:

Well, since its a football loving community i think football related posts will be intriguing to the people of this community and at such ill be posting football related posts here. Also, information about what is going on in the world of football will be my top priority as this platform will be giving its fans on time information and serves aa the basis to get updated before going online to see it or watching on tv.

WHAT I UNDERSTAND BY THE TERM "CONTENT ETIQUETTE" :

As Steemit will have it, content etiquette has to do with presenting your post in a way that will not get the writer flagged. Inother words its talking about write-ups free from plagiarism and poor referencing. In the newcomers community that was part of the achievements we were careful to observe and it taught me as an individual what were supposed to do to prevent plagiarism.

PLAGIARISM AND WAYS TO REFRAIN:

Plagiarism is simply presenting other peoples ideas as your own without giving them proper refrencing. The aim of content etiquette is to aid steemians avoid plagiarising peoples post and being flagged or charged in real life situations.
As of ways to curb plagiarism, we have the proper refrencing, use of image sites free to steemit example, www.shutterstock.com and so on. Carefully refrence materials that are not your idea.

WHAT IS COPYRIGHT ABUSE? :

Copywright is the priviledge or authority given to an author or a writer which gives the author protection from thefts and unlawful use of their materials. The use of their works or materials without proper reference is the copywright abuse.

PLACES TO FIND FREE COPYRIGHT IMAGES:

CONSEQUENCES OF PLAGIARISM AND COPYRIGHT ABUSE:

Im bound to believe that plagiarism and copyright abuse defaulters will be severly dealt with and the meeasures taken by the steemit world of football is BANNING FROM THE COMMUNITY.

I hope that this task ive done will go a long way in getting me validated. I am well aware of the rule of this community as well as the norms of steemit and will abide by them all time.
