Huh? I really didn’t think I’d get that, as I was resting my Reddit a bit, lol. Thank you everyone! Enjoy your weekend.

Sir @davideownzall, I'm going to share some of your amazing articles later. 😉

I have and will show you in a bit. lol

Not a great week but it is what it is I guess 😅

Hello @davideownzall,

I hope you are doing well.

I was advised to contact you regarding my HivePosh ban. To be honest, I do not know the reason for the ban, and I would really like to better understand the situation.

If I violated a rule or made a mistake, I would genuinely appreciate knowing what it was. It was never my intention to break any rules or misuse the system in any way.

I enjoy contributing to both the Hive and Reddit communities, so it is important for me to understand what went wrong and learn from it.

I would be very grateful if you could take a moment to explain the reason for the ban when you have time.

Thank you in advance for your time and help.

Kind regards,

@baycan

Hello.

Welcome back to Hive. Thank you for publishing your content and for being part of the community and publishing on Hive. We’re glad to have you here!

To confirm your authorship of the content, could you please add the word "Hive" to a main profile on a well-established social media account like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, which has not been recently created and shows the lifestyle of a real person?

After you add the link, please respond to this comment with the URL link to that social media.

You can remove this mention once we confirm the authorship.

Thank you.

More Info: Introducing Identity/Content Verification Reporting & Lookup

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

I have added the word “Hive” to my Instagram profile and linked my Hive account for verification purposes.

Please let me know if any additional information is required.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hi, thanks.
At the moment, the profile is set to private so I cannot confirm if it matches this Hive blog.

Hello,

Thank you for letting me know.

I have now changed my Instagram profile to public and kept the “Hive blogger” reference on my profile for verification purposes.

Please let me know if there is anything else you need from me.

Thank you again for your time and assistance.

Thank you very much. I have verified it. You are welcome to make it back to private.

By the way, would you know what these accounts are?
There were transfers between your account and these accounts a few years ago of $0,10.

Hello,

Thank you for asking.

These transactions are from several years ago, so I do not remember every account in detail. However, as far as I can remember, many of these accounts belonged to friends and community members I interacted with at the time.

Back then, I occasionally organized small contests and community activities, and I distributed small rewards to participants and winners. Some of these transfers may be related to those events and efforts to encourage community participation and activity.

I also recognize accounts such as Buildawhale, Minnowbooster, and PostPromoter as promotion or voting services that were commonly used on Hive at the time.

I hope this helps clarify the transactions, but please let me know if you need any additional information.

Thank you.

Thanks, that makes sense.

Thank you again for your help.

We would be happy to follow any guidelines or requirements necessary. We both value the Hive and Reddit communities and would appreciate the opportunity to correct any mistakes if possible.

Thank you for any advice you can provide.

This account "baycan" was never blacklisted.

Your wife passenger777?

passenger777 was blacklisted for publishing AI-generated travel stories.
https://hive.blog/hive-163772/@passenger777/patara-and-the-sand-hill-patara-ve-kum-tepesi-en-tr

Also, passenger777 published plagiarised writing 4 years ago.
https://hive.blog/hive-117778/@passenger777/antalya-termessos-antik-kenti

What we are trying to understand now is a different issue. Recently, the Hive Blog links we have been sharing on Reddit no longer appear beneath our Reddit posts. Even though we completed the Reddit-Hive account linking process, the notification only appeared once under a post and has never appeared again since then. We are unable to determine whether this is a technical issue with the system or whether there is some kind of restriction or ban affecting our accounts.

If there is a restriction or ban in place, we would appreciate understanding the reason. Our intention is not to violate any rules. If we have made a mistake, we would like to understand what it was so that we can correct it and continue participating in accordance with the rules.

We would greatly appreciate any guidance you can provide on this matter.

Thank you.

>Yes, passenger777 is my wife

According to "passenger777" profile, it is a man, not a woman.

I am confused.

This account "baycan" was never blacklisted by Hivewatchers.

Reddit Posh might have a block. You would need to contact that service/community and ask about it.

Thanks for the clarification.

Thank you for checking and for the information regarding the blacklist status. It’s good to know that the baycan account was never blacklisted by Hivewatchers.

We’ll look into the RedditPosh side and see if there is an issue there.

Thanks again for your help.

OK, thanks.

Hello @Hivewatchers

I hope you are doing well.

I would like to kindly ask you to reconsider my blacklist status. I believe there has been a misunderstanding regarding some of my translated content. In several cases, I used AI tools to assist with translations, but I did not intend to violate any community rules or standards.

I understand the importance of maintaining content quality and transparency on Hive, and I sincerely apologize if my actions caused any concerns. I have learned from this experience and will be much more careful going forward. I can assure you that this issue will not happen again.

I respectfully ask if you would consider reviewing my case and giving me another opportunity to participate in the Hive ecosystem without being on the blacklist.

OK. I have removed the blacklist.

Hello.
Welcome to Hive.

Thank you for publishing your content and for being part of the community and publishing on Hive. We’re glad to have you here!

To help you make the most of your experience, I recommend checking out these quick guides:

AI Guide: AI-Generated Content = Not Original Content

Also, please read this important guide about phishing threats in the Hive ecosystem:

Thank you.

Thank you very much for removing me from the blacklist. I also want to thank you for all your hard work.
From now on, I will take even greater care to follow all the rules and ensure that my participation is positive and beneficial for the community.

Hello,

First of all, it’s great to see my name on Reddit and to be part of the community.

However, I’m experiencing a few issues and I haven’t been able to get any information about why they are happening.

My Reddit performance has been very strong recently. Some of my posts have reached up to 30.000 views, received a significant number of upvotes, and generated positive engagement from users. Because of these results, I would expect to receive at least some feedback, notifications, or communication regarding my activity.

I have also connected my blog to Reddit, but I have not received any notifications or feedback related to that connection. This makes me wonder whether everything is working correctly or if there is something I may be missing.

Could you please help me understand if there is a reason for this lack of feedback and whether my account or content is affected by any limitations?

Thank you very much for your time and assistance.

As a small example, I would like to share this post. It was originally created by the user Dragan1957, and I shared it six days ago while clearly crediting the original author and including the original Hive article link in the post:

https://hive.blog/hive-168869/@dragan1957/weekend-in-djerdap-national-park

The post received more than 25,000 views and nearly 1,000 upvotes, which I was very happy to see. I truly appreciate the positive response from the community.

However, despite this level of engagement, I did not receive any notifications, feedback, or communication related to the post. Since I have also connected my blog to Reddit, I was wondering if this is the expected behavior or if there might be something I am overlooking.

I would be very grateful if you could help me better understand how this works.

Thank you very much for your time and assistance. @acidyo @redditposh @x-rain

@baycan, @passenger777, you were banned from HivePosh. I am quite busy working for HivePosh, that's why @davideownzall was invited to make the banning work. You should direct your questions to him. I am sure he will explain you what rule you broke to get banned from HivePosh.

Thank you for the information and for taking the time to respond. I appreciate your clarification.

I will contact @davideownzall directly to better understand the reason for the ban and any rules that may have been violated.

Thank you again for your help.

Hello @davideownzall,

I hope you are doing well.

I recently learned that my HivePosh access has been banned, and I would first like to respectfully ask if you could help me understand the reason behind this decision.

I have been an active member of the Hive community for many years, consistently creating content and trying my best to follow the platform's rules and community guidelines. If I have violated any HivePosh rule, I genuinely believe it was unintentional and caused by a misunderstanding on my part rather than any deliberate action.

I greatly appreciate the work that you, @acidyo, and everyone involved in the HivePosh project have invested in supporting both Hive and Reddit communities. I know that maintaining such a project requires significant time, effort, and dedication, and I sincerely respect those contributions.

If there was a specific rule violation that led to my ban, I would be grateful if you could explain it to me so that I can better understand the situation. Should I have made a mistake, I am more than willing to correct it and ensure that it does not happen again in the future.

I enjoy supporting HivePosh and would appreciate the opportunity to resolve any issues and, if possible, be considered for reinstatement.

Thank you for your time, understanding, and the work you do for the community.

Kind regards,

@passenger777

What is the reason for Spaminator's downvotes?

Hello,

Unfortunately, I don't have enough information on this topic, so it wouldn't be right for me to comment definitively on why Spaminator received negative votes. I don't want to provide incorrect or incomplete information. Explanations from users or administrators who have more information on this subject would be more helpful.

The fact you are downvoted by HiveWatchers played a negative role in your HivePosh ban. I recommend you start with removing the downvotes of spaminator. To do so, go to Discord of HiveWatchers https://discord.com/channels/333959953951752194/548165821801955328

Ask politely them to remove you from the blacklist.

You were accused of using AI for writing the text in this post https://hive.blog/hive-163772/@passenger777/patara-and-the-sand-hill-patara-ve-kum-tepesi-en-tr And after that you were blacklisted.

If you don't use AI for writing your posts anymore, tell them that you don't use AI and only translate from Turkish to English with AI - you translate with AI, right? (This is allowed). Hopefully, they will remove you from their black list.

Thank you for your advice. I contacted the HiveWatchers team as you suggested, explained the situation, and they reviewed my case. Fortunately, I have now been removed from the blacklist.

I really appreciate you taking the time to point me in the right direction. Your comment helped me understand the issue and ultimately resolve it.

Thanks again for your help!

You are welcome! Glad my advice was helpful!

The discussion about your HivePosh ban hasn't been finished yet... Probably, tomorrow...

@passenger777, you are unbanned, congratulations.

@baycan, the decision of HivePosh team is that only users active on Hive are allowed to share through HivePosh. As soon as you regularly post and comment on Hive, you'll be allowed to share through HivePosh.

Thank you very much

Hello,

I wanted to follow up regarding my ban. Since your previous message, I have become active on Hive again. I published a new post and have been engaging with other users by leaving comments and participating in the community.

I plan to continue being active regularly and contributing to the Hive community going forward.

I would appreciate it if you could review my account and consider lifting the ban.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Good to see you started posting and commenting. Active means active longer than one day, lol. I will review your account in a month.

Sounds fair. I’ll keep posting and engaging with the community. Thanks

This is incredible work 353 Hive links shared on Reddit by 46 active Hivers is a massive milestone for outward marketing. Huge appreciation to you @x-rain for hosting the Hive Posh Contest and managing all these stats so beautifully. This is exactly what we need to bring Web2 audiences over to Web3. The prize pool with HP delegations is super motivating too. Keep up the amazing work of driving real traffic to Hive 🚀🔥

Thanks you so much @x-rain for the support !! 🤝😉

My entry for contest #84

Haven't entered in a while, also haven't shared in a while.
Life has been too eventful to focus on Hive lately, but I'm always still lurking.
