RE: A unique and funny animal appears in front of the camera
@henry-gant, I read you a lot, and share most of your views (except that one of making people pay a premium to be taken seriously but that's a different matter), I don't know if he edited the post adding the source after your comment or it was there before.
If it was there before i think it is case of a non English speaker that didn't knew how to convey the idea of a comparison but to follow the rules, he put the link anyway.
We are humans different from robots, we need to be able to tell these subtle things and maybe try to help?
Many non English speakers struggle to get their share as the community is mainly English speakers, so they venture to trust bad translator services in hope of being shown, shared and voted by the bigger language.
If we want the network to grow we need to try to help them, i agree with all the Gold-diggers/ Quick cash kids around it is difficult.
Maybe i can help you when you have suspicions on native Spanish posters, (that, at least put a link) if you give me a mention in your comment, and i can come and confirm or help the guy to re-word his post, so if he did an actual effort it is recognized.
I have started a "real" curation group to help develop the Spanish community, and right now they rely on double posting as the community in Spanish is too small for them to perceive a benefit.
Not this is only for the money, but please keep in mind that in most south american countries (and even Spain) what little they can make here is important to increase their revenue.
Thanks for taking the time to read and please let me help you make this community better in a fair way.
PS: I don't even know the guy, i came here because one of my newbies commented his post.

@nnnarvaez, thank you for reading my post.
First @mattclarke has a solution for the problem of spam that he came up with several months ago.
It is simple and fair, involving reputations instead of a nominal fee.
I present it here:

Second: @arjunmartavela did add the source link to his post. After my post? Honestly, it seems so; but, I did not take a snap shot of it so I can no longer say for certain.
As you know we have a growing problem with plagerisum in Steem.it and yes some of it is because of the difficulty with a second language and not fully understanding the rules of this place.
I realized that @arjunmartavela was trying to say that he had taken pictures similar to the ones posted.
Ok, no problem. which is why I dropped the subject and moved on with out flagging or summoning @steemcleaners.
The posts' of egregious violators take most of my day to get shut down. I would rather do other things than point out violations. I prefer to play with my writing.
Finally, I have great respect for Wences Casares and know the difficulties of his home land, Venezuela.
I'm in the process of contacting him with the intention of encouraging his help on the steemit platform for the reasons you outline.
I would appreciate your help in crafting a letter to him, detailing how Steemit helps people gain a foot hold toward a better situation.
Please send me more information on how I can be of help.
Sincerely,
H. G.
Additionally, it was your earlier post that got me thinking about how Steem.it can be more useful.
ok thankyou friend for input very good and useful for me fore. so if there's a little mistake about my post yesterday i'm sorry, @henry-gant
I'm happy to get your reply @arjunmartavela.
If you have any question please ask me in chat.
I'll do my best to help you here in Steem.it.
H.G.
thanks for everything i am also happy with your input, @henry-gant
I thank you so much friends @nnnarvaez, I really like your comments, if there is criticism and the best advice I will accept it all.
Thanks, it is a pleasure,
Now i had a minute to check your profile i realize Spanish is not your language neither :) Sorry !
Is just that i saw your reply to Issa and thought that. My telegram group might not be of big help in your case he he.
Just make sure you word properly if you are making a comparison and using someone else's material.
