Over the last 4 months we have seen a huge increase in the amount of people supporting this cause. On the one hand, this is great and it's just what we need if we are ever going to bring about change.
We so desperately need the support we have been getting, and without everyone contributing the way they have, we simply would not exist.
As with everything in life, where there is money involved, then greed will almost certainly rear it's ugly head in one way or another.
We are fully aware of this problem, which is why we cannot tolerate greed, plagiarism or any other form of suspicious behaviour involving the #familyprotection tag.
If word gets out that we are a soft touch then the flood gates will open, and Hive account@familyprotection will drown in a sea of scammy posts that will no doubt put an end to this much needed and well respected cause.
For this reason alone we can not, and will not give any second chances, after the first offence the author will be muted by the Hive account@familyprotection account and your posts will no longer appear in our feed.
If you want to be a part of the Hive account@familyprotection community and steemit in general then you have to abide by curtain rules!
We at Hive account@familyprotection, want to reward people for good, high quality and original posts which are going to help us all get a clearer picture of the horrors that can occur at the hands of the various government agencies that all profit from removing children from loving families.
What is an Original Post?
Part of raising awareness for Hive account@familyprotection is finding stories that are usually hidden from the general public and bringing them to light. We do encourage this on the one hand, but if you simply copy and paste an article, and don't even bother to give your own original thought on the matter at hand then the upvote you receive, if any! will reflect your lack of effort. And if you go as far as to not even link the source to your copy and paste job, then I'm sorry but your GONE!
Why So Harsh?
Lets face it! If you are found guilty of such trickery then you are just gaming the system, but for us it is NOT a game, we are serious and if you're not, then we don't need you weighing down this organisation and taking votes away from the real heroes and heroine's of the FP Family.
Another reason we have to be tough, is that we have a lot of very dedicated people who work extremely hard to REALLY help this cause, they spend hours upon hours putting together high quality posts, but their reward for that hard work is being diluted because of a few greedy, lazy and dishonest people who believe they should get paid for two clicks of a mouse
And last, but by no means least, Linda, Hive account@canadian-coconut and I, Hive account@markwhittam are having to work almost 8hrs a day to go through all the post to check for authenticity, relativity and quality, in fact we have been so overwhelmed with the sudden influx of posts that we have had to take on extra help. Thanks to Hive account@eco-alex we are just starting to get on top of the situation, so PLEASE try not to make our job even harder as we are all volunteering our time at present.
@familyprotection Can Not Afford To Give Any Second Chances.
