RE: BuildTeam : Curation Tips and Ideas for Producing Quality Content
Photography post at the end shouldn't be considered abuse. Steemit is a platform of many artists and authors. Just because one author writes stories doesn't make his or her content more valuable than someone who posts photos or art.
Artists / photographers don't need to write paragraphs upon paragraphs to showcase their work, and unfortunately you don't seem to understand this and neither does Minnowbooster which only leads to those of us that use Steemit for this type of content to look elsewhere for our services.
What you're implying is that authors are the only ones producing "meaningful" content. This thinking is flawed. If you look at well renowned artists and photographers, rarely do you see a short story on a behind the scenes look at their artwork.
Moreover, it is NOT necessary to include an attribution link to a Pixabay image as all images are CC0 Creative Commons which clearly states: "Free for commercial use - No attribution required."
Please change your thinking. There's a difference between spam posts and actual hard work. Steemit is a community where thinkers, artists, musicians, and authors alike should be free to place their work. When a vote service starts adding ridiculous TOS that excludes a specific type of media and favors another, things tend to head in a negative direction.
You have been blacklisted for breaking MB terms of service. Drop by the discord if you feel it was in error. Photography can be curated and boosted with MB as long as it includes 150 words describing the context in which it was taken and provides background information to support the work is creative and original. All of these expectations are based on the feedback of fellow Steemians. This is the community speaking loud and clear.
