As one of the Newbies in the Newbies Initiative, we are given tasks to perform. A few weeks back we were asked to share our goals, that was our first task, you can check mine out here
In this second task, we are asked some questions to which I would be giving answers. Follow closely.
Here are the Questions
🌟 How has been your experience with Hive since you joined?

My journey on Hive has been an interesting one. Hive is a great place to be, right now it is one of the platforms I am most active on.
Not just the blogging but also the Play 2 earn games like Risingstars, Dcrops, Splinterland, etc. If I'm not posting or engaging, I'm playing games and earning. What else can I ask for?
The fact that it is almost impossible for an individual not to find a community that relates to his/her interest is so fascinating.
Hive is for everyone and there are communities for almost all interests.
I have also been allowed to make new friends and connect with people from different parts of the world. How amazing.

🔱 Plagiarism is simply taking someone else's ideas and passing them off as your own without giving credit to the owner.
Why should a person even find gratification in stealing someone else idea?
I frown so hard at plagiarism, I detest it. I understand it can be difficult to come up with ideas or you may have ideas but don't even know how to start, that is where research comes in.
You make secondary research from there you will birth more ideas and eventually get started with your content.
I advise that every newbie and oldsters abstain from Plagiarism, remember there are consequences for people who plagiarize.
🔱 Vote begging speaks lowly of a person. I for one don't put all my hope on upvotes. If I make a post and I have more engagements and fewer upvotes I think that's enough for me. It shows that my content is attractive enough and birthing conversations. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate upvotes if I get them
So I believe in taking away your mind from upvotes this way you don't get disappointed when you get less.
Remember, there are punishments for people who beg for votes, I'm sure you wouldn't want to be punished, so abstain from vote begging and instead create valuable content, engage with others and watch how things will turn out.

Content Recycling also known as Content Repurposing is the reusing of existing content in a different form. When I enrolled in content creation class, one of the things we were taught is Content Repurposing.
It was explained to us that you can recycle your content and turn it into another form, probably even change one or two things in it.
For example, if you created a blog post a long time ago, you can recycle it and turn it into an infographic, you can also turn it into a video or an ebook or a podcast, etc.
I don't see anything wrong in recycling your content but I believe sense should be applied to everything everyone does.
Here are things to consider before recycling your content.
💠Ensure the post that would go through the recycling process is ever valuable and relevant.
💠Ensure it fits into the form you wish to recycle it into.
For instance, with this little value I have shared with you I can decide to recycle this content a few weeks or months from now into video content.
In the video, I would share all these and even add more things, in a way that this current video would be valued.
Do you grab? Good.

Well well well, my first markdown breakthrough happened after reading 
It was an eye-opener, a revelation as to how much more I can make my post attractive. I also enjoy the fact that the commands are similar to HTML's, I feel like I'm coding already. It's exciting.
