Hello, welcome to Freewriters. Thank you for writing an introduction to the community.

I'm sorry you've had some problems. Hive can be confusing for new people and it is easy to make mistakes if you don't know the rules.

Most communities have rules so make sure you read them before posting in that community. Always make sure your content is original (you have written it, the photos are yours), and it is best not to reuse content you have posted elsewhere on the internet (and never repeat posts on Hive). Try not to post more than once or twice a day.

I am not sure why you are getting downvoted by certain big accounts. You might be on a blacklist (due to your previous mistake), or it could be that the accounts downvote you because another account they don't like upvoted you (some people are that petty). You might find that after a while they stop downvoting you.

My advice is to keep posting and try not to worry about the payout.

You are welcome to continue to post in Freewriters as long as the content is new and original.

Good luck
