My Apologies

I have been informed that a couple post that I did this morning were removed because this site does not allow to share cut and paste messages. I am truly sorry about that because I didn't know and I completely understand having it removed because of the rules. I just find that sometimes there are things we come upon that may be an inspiration to others and I thought that as long as I posted the original author it would be all right. So now that I know that is not allowed... what about images with inspirational messages. Are those allowed?

I did read the guidelines but I'm not always able to remember everything.

@MistyckMoon maybe if you acknowledge the post as from its original author, i don't think there will be a problem at all. if we copy and paste an article, then we may be committing a crime on intellectual property.

@ridingbet I did that, I made sure that the author and her profession were properly mentioned. I did everything I was suppose to do including introducing the the writing and making it clear what it was and who it was by.

I usually use my own images as I am a photographer and an artist. But the post was removed anyway. It's not a big deal to me because I shared it on another site that does allow cut and paste as long as we credit the author and it is a site that also pays you to post. So I'm not really losing out on anything anyway. I am also a writer and was just sharing something from an inspirational speaker and doesn't mind the shares as long as she is credited.
