So I got flagged for my birthday...what did you get? (Plagiarism the plague of all time)

in life •  8 years ago  (edited)

I was the one who commented:

"This article appears to be spun from this and other sources. http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/emotional-intelligence-why-important.html"

From that article:

Emotional intelligence is still not completely understood, but what we do know is that emotions play a very critical role in the overall quality of our personal and professional lives

Your original text:

We all know that emotions play a crucial role in the overall quality of our personal and professional lives.

That's way beyond coincidence. It's plagiarism. There are more examples but I really dont need to waste more of my time with a scammer.

Interestingly, you edited the post massively later, presumably to hide the plagiarism. Here's a diff:

With all of that said, would you like to explain you trying to scam Steemit?

Okay, I have banned @serioustruth.

Good morning @pfunk and @cheetah ban, I am sorry I did not comment directly after as I was asleep. I just woke up as I posted my last post at two in the morning. I am very disturbed by this and would like to sincerely apologize for this chaos. It was not my intention to cause this. In my previous post about EQ and IQ I did not use the internet as a reference guide. Like I explained in my post about this topic, I have been busy editing books for the school on this topic. I have been doing this for months now. I just thought that it would be a good idea to use this as a topic, as I have some knowledge about this. The fact that I edited this post after it was flagged does not make me a bad person. I did this as I realized that I could not leave the post as it is, as it was indeed plagiarism. It is not my intention to scam anyone. I am not a bad person. I am very saddened that I am now branded as a scammer. I would appreciate it if you could consider removing this as I can just as well leave steemit now if I am just going to be flagged down every time I post anything. I realize that this a serious situation, but as I said, this was not at all my intention. How would I be able to prove myself to you now?
