RE: 2nd day on Steemit! Might as well introduce myself ;)

Thanks for the support @mitneb, really appreciate it man! I don't usually drink that much, so it's fine, no need to worry. ;)

Since I'm kinda new here, how does the originalworks bot work? I assume it's some sort a plagiarizing checker that upvotes your post if it's original work, correct?

Sort:  

Ok, but if you are getting FUBAR I will be worried for you, @maikelmichiels. Yes, you are right about the bot, but more than checking for plagerism it adds credibility that you are the original author, and the post is not spammy in nature. Certain criteria can make the bot not respond even if it is an original article. I wrote an article once that used a lot of callouts of @names. That made the bot think it was spam when it really wasn't, so the bot reply never posted. There are other bots that are also checking for plagerism. The cheetah bot is one I know of. Cheers!
