One of my Steemit followers suggested that I make a video talking about things you shouldn't do on the Steemit platform. I thought this was a great idea considering all of my videos so far have been about things you should do to build your channel and following. So today I will discuss everything from plagiarism, to flagging, to spamming, and more. I hope you guys enjoy it and I've left links to everything I mentioned in today's video below.

- Daily Comment Reward -
- Upvote this post
- Leave a unique comment (not just a "great video!" or "follow me")
- And you could win $20 USD worth of SBD!
That's it! It's also a great idea to go ahead and follow my channel so that you don't miss any upcoming posts. You can do that here: https://steemit.com/@brandonfrye
Image plagiarism was a concern for me; I found through google search you can use the advanced search, which gives a drop-down option to filter Usage Rights, however, I have so many images saved in my folders, there may be a couple that were not filtered... I will definitely check out Pixabay! As a newby all of this information is helpful, so, thanks! :)

That's a good tip. Just good to double check where the image came from I guess. But I'm glad I was able to share Pixabay with you. I've used them for a long time now.. ever since I got called out for plagiarism (and an author) tried to extort money out of my years ago lol. He didn't get my money but he definitely taught me a valuable lesson.

Thank you this is very helpful. I am looking or mentorship for a community I am trying to grow #MinnowMilitia so content creators can reach out to targeted audiences and help each other out with the difficulties of starting out on the steem block chain. The other alternatives are paying for upvotes or upvote for upvote. Upvotes should be earned and we just want to Create a space where we can connect with others like us. If you could give a mention to help us grow that would be great. I would also like to link you to tutorials so our future members can find answers easily. Thank you @brandonfrye.

Great stuff man as always. I really think the idea that @aggroed brought up about the downvote rather than flag option would be huge. I didn't even notice that Dtube thing until you brought it up. And I wonder how many people have been flagged because people just didn't agree with it. Needs a change I think and that's a pretty good suggestion!

I agree, I hope he can push that idea along and maybe get some other people on board with it. I've actually seen several people get flagged on dtube because people just didn't understand what they were doing. At least, I assume they didn't know what affect that has on these people's videos. It's just too innocent looking when it's just thumbs down icon.

So. I get to start at the top of the comment heap without upvoting my own comment!
That's a truly great list, and it's in my best interest to follow it.
I actually met Cheetah on my second post. I used to write for a daily MC page on a 'one use' license. He got sole use of my content for one use, but I retain full ownership and rights. I 'repurposed' (with some changes, but not much) my post and Cheetah found where it was originally posted. I was embarrassed. I'll reuse some of those (they represent a lot of research about cool MCs) but I'll do a major rewrite before I do.
Thanks for another great video and tutorial. I really do appreciate them.

Hey @bigtom13, thanks as always for your comments! That's interesting to hear you've already had a run in with Cheetah. Even some big YouTube channels that are coming to Steemit/Dtube are learning very quick about Cheetah. Of course, it's not always a bad thing but at least with Cheetah you're able to prove your ownership.

I had Cheetah pay a visit on one of my posts too, after I copied an article I wrote on Blogspot and posted it on Steemit. It's nothing to worry about, Readers will see that the link in the comment leads to my own work.
That's what copyrights are for. As the author, I have the right to copy and post my work anywhere I please. That is my right granted by the laws of copyright. A lot of people think that copyright was created only to prevent others from copying one's work. That is only one of the reasons. The other is to allow creators to make as many copies of their work as they see fit.
That's something any creator should take advantage of.

Thank you for that comprehensive list of things that you shouldn't do on steemit. I agree with all of the mentioned points except for one: the downvoting / flagging. As you pointed out, there is a little bit of a flaw with the steemit's flagging system to begin with. But if you just disagree with the content or the opinion that is put forward in that content, what's the problem of just sticking to the comment section and voice your criticism / differing opinion there. I think it is unfair to take away from a person's reward and reputation just because you disagree, when there are other people who enjoy that content. In that instance wouldn't it be better to comment and then upvote your own comment? This way everyone wins.

I found Dmania and i kinda like the site. I plan to only post memes i have actually made and not repost everything i see on reddit like some people are doing.

You get long good informative posts and some stupid stuff you can just laugh for a bit at.

Friendly FYI: I noticed you used "copywritten" when referring to content that is protected, which is a common mistake people make. It might originate from believing that an author's work is written down on paper, therefore it is copywritten.
However, the correct term is "copyrighted". For example, as a graphic designer, my designs are automatically copyrighted the moment they are created. This means that only I have the right to copy them, which is where the word originates.
This applies to any creative work, whether it be writing, visual art or music.
I hope you don't mind me righting this wrong...

@brandonfrye Thanks for the not-to-do tips! Question for dtube, I noticed there isn't a upvote slider and you automatically vote at 100% power. Is there a way to get the slider to appear or is this just not a function within dtube at the moment?
You mentioned that upvoting your own comment is not best practice. I upvote a lot of my comments since I am new and I'm trying to get as much exposure as possible. Is this really frowned upon on Steemit?

I'm going to let someone else chime in here to see what opinions come up. But I would still use Pixabay and search for an iPhone X image. That way you know you're safe. You could also take a picture of your own iPhone X if you have one handy. But my thoughts are that if you're taking the image directly from the Apple website they most likely wouldn't have a problem with this if your article is speaking positively about iPhone or Apple. But again, just to be safe I would use one of the images on Pixabay. I'd be interested to hear what others say.

Pixabay is a decent site for images, but also very limited. Shopify also has a good selection of royalty free images that people can use: https://burst.shopify.com/free-images
For those who want more professional looking images try Fotolia. The platform is owned by Adobe, and it sells a huge selection of high quality photos for fairly cheap prices: https://us.fotolia.com/
As for plagiarism, this seems to be a big issue on YouTube as well. People often steal videos and re-upload them to their own channels and then dump ads on them. Its the whole reason Google keeps having to change the rules regarding monetization, because a few bad actors are stealing content left and right.
One of the things people can do to protect their videos is make use of a logo to include in each video production. I do this for the majority of my gaming videos, and include the logos for my gaming brand in my videos here on Steemit. This way if someone is stealing your content, others will know because of the logo, and someone will always tip you off.

I've only been on Steemit for a few weeks and I've actually noticed more than one person mislabeling their posts so that they can get into the "introduce yourself" section.
So, you're absolutely right about the mislabeling of tags.
Also, when you're on the receiving end of people plagiarising your work, it doesn't feel good at all. It not nice when you put hours of work into writing blog posts or creating a video and then Swiper comes over and passes your stuff off as their own.
So, I'm glad that this platform took the steps to do something about that.

Understanding that this platform is a social network, we must be able to contribute with quality material, what is quality? there are thousands of topics to contribute and with contribution I mean not only echo what we hear or we learn, we can talk about the same topic but with our personal opinion.
In the course of the projects or new ideas, the main impulse is the ideas emitted from the community, if we only echo copying and pasting information, we will never end up with anything more than repeating what someone else said, without a personal contribution. .
However cute or spectacular we may find an opinion or a publication we can not just copy and paste, all ideas always need to be shredded and point out what seems right and in the same way point out what we do not like, we all have different scenarios in our lives and those small differences make change much or little the ideas of someone else.
My opinion of SPAM, the truth I have nothing favorable to say, but I do not understand why this behavior, when I usually comment on a video or a publication, I always try to leave all my impressions, even if it is tedious to read all my comment , I can not just answer with (good video, good publication or that well follow me) for me is like "give the plane" hahaha as we say in Mexico, asking to follow me or vote for my publications I leave it to everyone and to I put in them, the fact of following someone or being followed by someone should not be based on conditions but the interest of my material and yours.

Spammers and Vote-fishers are such a nuisance.
I have found content that was merely run through a translator, Word for word, completely plagiarized. So, I doubt the cheetah bot verifies content written in other languages.
Steemit can be great.
I get it, some users are not native English speakers. It might be helpful to have these rules and etiquette guidelines available in other languages to prevent abuse.

I just ran across your videos on YouTube. I’m new and not active at producing content here. still trying to figure this thing out a bit. You have a great presence on video and I will probably binge watch your stuff.
I find that my interests are wide and once I start writing, posts may very widely on content. I’m wondering if this might be an issue in gaining followers? Have you done a video about that? thank you so much!
I’m so new... I don’t even know if I upvoted this video if it would count. Is there like a time limit for earning potential? Lol... well, I’m showing my newbieness!
Thank... following you now!

I have a question. You might have said something about it at some point, but I'm new on steemit so I haven't seen all the videos yet. If you resteem something can you undo it?

Hi Brandon, I'm new to Steemit, so as I usually do when I dive into something new, I researched a little on youtube and stumbled across your channel. Saw this video there and found very helpful, plenty of good info and has helped me understand the Steemit platform a little better. I still have a fair bit of learning to do, but I'll get there in the end. In any case, I just wanted to say thanks for the info and sharing your expertise. You have my follow no problem. Excellent content and information. Have a great day QSE
