Well, just came back to steemit and am waiting for my decision to be taken off of the blacklist. There seems to have been some misunderstanding a few months ago and I was accused of copying and plagiarising. I must admit that I was not entirely familiar with all the rules and regulations as I was a newbie. I have made my plea with on the chats to reconsider having me blacklisted.

As I stated, I was new to the site and wasn't sure of all the rules. On numerous occasions i actually inquired with the steem watchers as to what i was doing wrong - never really got any answers except the automated bot replies.

Anyhow, i am not playing the blame game or denying anything. I have taken the time to red the FAQ's and rules on the site. If i really wanted to hide i would have simply created a new account and gone from there, but i truly want to say i was unaware and new to the site.

I hope they reconsider and i want to apologise if anyone feels threatened or annoyed - totally not done on purpose. This is a learning curve for me. Not an avid blogger or social media person. Steem is my first and i am a newbie to this world. Social media virgin.

Anyhow, long story short, just wanted to put that out there and get my conscious clear.

Cheers
