Changes I'm thinking of making to how I proceed with Steemgridcoin
Hello,
A few things have been bugging me for a while with how I use steemgridcoin and I would like to receive your feedback on things I would like to change.
Preaching to the choir
Right now steemgridcoin is funded by upvotes from comments I'm leaving on posts I upvotes which is fine when it's not gridcoin related but in the gridcoin category, I feel like I am preaching to the choir. We are already here for gridcoin so trying to advertise it here is redundant and spammy but it does help fund the account. Since the beginning, in less than a month, the account earned about 9 SP (I purchased and donated the rest and delegated from my main account).
What I would like to do instead is stop commenting in the gridcoin category (I would still do it in the technology/science when I upvote there.) If I was to do this, I would start making occasional funding posts. I'm thinking once a month maybe every other week. Users could contribute an upvote or a donation should they decide to. Using this method, I would be able to lease some SP delegations which would increase the value of the upvote. I'm already doing it to a lesser degree on my own right now.
By contributing like this to funding the account, IF I was to switch to this method, I would change the message so that it is more clear that the community contributed directly to it. I would also create a post giving credit to users who contributed in the previous period.
Upvotes
Browsing through the science category, I've noticed most of it comes without references, once I reach 500 SP (I should have it soon™), I intend on offering 50% upvotes for posts who do not include references and 100% on those who do.
I would probably start upvoting comments from users(not bots except maybe charity bots like @treeplanter) in the gridcoin community at a weight of 10% as well.
Plagiarism
Thanks to @barton26, who warned me that I had upvoted plagiarism, I came up with this idea. Users found to be doing plagiarism without putting references and proper credit will be muted and downvoted by the account. There wouldn't be a second chance unless you guys are willing to give people a second chance.
Discussions about interesting scientific articles
If you are interested in having a conversation about an article you found somewhere outside of steem, As long as you credit the author, put a direct link and put the content in quotation and provide an answer to the original article, this would not be considered plagiarism by me.
tldr: no comments in /gridcoin, better reward for references, plagiarism is bad, dont do it
Feel free to give me your feedback and have a nice evening.

@resteemator is a new bot casting votes for its followers. Follow @resteemator and vote this comment to increase your chance to be voted in the future!
To be honest I do not know what steemgridcoin is or means :(
it's just an upvote bot basically minus the bot part and without fees. the point is to promote gridcoin outside the community and improve earning for it's community members
So it is a community as well. Gridcoin is something like bitcoin?
it's a cryptocurrency
You know homie did not say even one single time that he wrote the article and he did not take or ask credit for it and there were links and it had references to where he got the info so ffs be your own person. Under that mindset @barton26 himself plagiarizes when he too posts update notices after @peppernrino and/or anybody else too posts the same " new mandatory gridcoin wallet update version blah blah blah " and " new leisure gridcoin wallet version blah blah blah " and the posts are pretty much word for word the same damn posts and the same damn info. SOOOOO do we start flaggin @barton26's posts when they are not a resteam of the first person whom posts it like Rino? Do we flag @peppernrino if @barton26 posts it first and what about the other guy since there are many of us in team Gridcoin on this site? Dude posted references and nowhere did he say he wrote it , nowhere did he try to take credit for the information posted and its petty ass shit, @barton26 is a square and has nothing better to do than point out the mistakes and flaws of others because he is perfect in every way shape and form. You know what , we are supposed to be a team and I think some people need to look up the definition and pull their heads out their asses because we sure as fuck don't act like or function like a team. Yes in every team there are little cliques like the GRC8 but as a whole we should be supporting and encouraging each other and NOT bullying and outcasting and slandering each other. It's petty as hell to point a finger at someone else and think you are better than then. So post when and where and what you want to... Hell there is tits and ass alone with some hot vagina its not just limited to to pointless Gridcoin posts like multiple on staking and people wasting their time to calculate rac/mag per GPU's and CPU's when just like Gridcoin's value is fluid and only valid for that moment in time as things change and more people join projects not to mention more host machines. I think steemit is a waste of time and people focus on it to much... Aren't we here for science and boinc ? I thought Gridcoin was just a bonus on the side? Post dick pics if you wish , there is plenty of tits n ass in dlive or what ever the fuck it is along with pussy... ZOMG the Team Gridcoin Square Alarm just went off... I think we need a /steemit/marijuana category seeing as its legal here in Washington state amongst others in the USA along with Vegas where hookers are legal so we need /sttemit/hookers too.. OMG hookers n pot ftw!
That's not the subject of this post
Stop being an asshole
Someone posts an Article from a website, complete copy&paste, without mentioning his source -> plagiarism. He posts the same article two more times without any changes -> more plagiarism.
Maybe you shouldn't consume that much marijuana, it doesn't seem to do your brain any good.
