RE: For Your Protection: Why Every Steemian Should Take 5 Minutes to Claim Their WEKU Account!

in #identity6 years ago

Hey @enjar, I actually had ZERO intention of starting a new "anything," but I just don't like potential "trouble" hanging over my head... I've had content stolen from a couple of other sites and it was a massive pain in the ass to file DMCA takedown requests through Google, etc.

So I'm a little gunshy on that kind of stuff.

I don't even know if I will get a reward for referrals; I just know they were giving new people a $100 bonus for signing up through a referral. I reckon if that ends up being worth $30 next year, I'll buy myself a dinner and think "Yeah, well, that was interesting...."

Sort:  

Looks like some people are picking up easy coins over there. Tempted to put some of my gaming posts over there. I wonder how long till someone comes knocking all angary that it was not created just for that site.

That is the wonder of gaming content. I can share it anymore without to much thought going into it. Even more so when it already is an older game and nothing has changed.

I can actually give you a "real" answer to that.

An exchange with one of the WEKU principals on some post (or maybe a Discord?) stated that it was "acceptable" to cross post your own content AS LONG AS you made it patently obvious that it was YOUR content, and clearly stated "This was previously published on ______ web site," somewhere in the text. And a link to the original source would be nice but not required.

It wasn't exactly encouraged, but at least it was a not prohibited.

They do have their own version of Cheetah, SteemCleaners and Spaminator, though.

Nice, those are my plans! Really does sound like a clone of Steemit. Well lets hope they get the ball rolling on some different ways of doing things in the long run over there.

It was at least nice to see my vote worth something over there as well.

Thanks for the info!
