Please calm down. We need to figure these things out.

We know that many people come here for the money. Also we understand that you need money. We want to reward people who contributes honestly. We don't like to give free money to thieves.

Firstly, please be honest.

• if the pictures or some of them aren't taken by you, mention them in the post in the first place, you'll get benefit by doing so -- people would respect your honesty and perhaps would still vote for you;
• if not mentioned (perhaps forgot), when people asking whether the pictures, answer honestly;
• if you claimed originality, when others (probably with efforts put in) found the source which is not yours, your reputation will be greatly harmed;
• after others found you're not honest, please still be honest, crying won't help, denying won't help either, because people will assume that all your words aren't true, so you need to prove yourself harder, with evidences. The fact is, at least 2 pictures are found that are not your own, if you don't show us the evidences that other pictures are taken by you, most likely people will think that all pictures aren't taken by you. If the truth (only you know by now) is some other pictures aren't your own work, don't fool yourself or others by claiming that they're yours, because it's likely that people will find new evidences.

Secondly, please respect others' work.

• You respect others, others will respect you.
• you won't be happy if someone else copied your article and pictures and published somewhere and get all money but give you nothing. Vise versa, others won't be happy if you did the same to them.
• we respect people who made efforts to keep this place clean by blacklisting plagiarist and spammers
• we respect people who publish original contents here
• we respect people who share interesting things here

Thirdly, adopt some strategies and tricks when posting here.

• It's nothing wrong to say "I found this picture on the Internet and I want to share it with you" and tell us where did you found it, or tell us that you forgot where did you found it.
• It's nothing wrong to trace arts and share with us, if acknowledged us that it's tracing. Most artists begin with tracing.

Lastly, I respect your efforts and contributions to this platform, if you can prove yourself and contribute in a more positive way, I will still support you in the future.
