Update: account suspension due to "plagiarism"

Well, four emails to CC and five posts to the forum and not a peep from CC. Shameful! All I request is the dignity of a response justifying the closure of my account and the opportunity to defend myself. Beware authors, this could happen to any of you! I feel victimized twice over.

account suspension due to "plagiarism"

Sadly, I have still not yet received a response from CC. I am so disappointed. All I wanted was a chance to understand the justification for the account suspension and my chance to prove myself. But no response at all to three mails to the contact (Author related) and these posts on the forum. What ...

Re: account suspension due to "plagiarism"

Thanks for your response. No, I know I'm not technically working for CC. The reason I closed my Suite account is because I was earning so little that I wasn't even receiving a payout and I thought they were good articles that deserved a home. Obviously, I should have performed a search to see if the...

account suspension due to "plagiarism"

I have yet to receive a response to my query as to why my account was suspended either from the forum or the contact form I filled out. Does this mean that it is being investigated? Is there a time frame within which I will have my question answered? I find it unacceptable that my account has been s...

account suspension due to "plagiarism"

I have been accused of plagiarism after one of my articles with Suite 101 was stolen and posted on another site (without authorship). I have closed my suite 101 account because I didn't think it right to have those articles up while I was working for Constant Content. I am a serious writer and am ap...

Re: previously published content

An article I wrote for another site and took down ie: closed my whole account recently, was considered plagiarism by CC when I submitted it. When I google the text, it comes up but the page is blank, it just has the title of my article. I have asked the site to close my account altogether. What do I...

bylines coming up in Google

I have removed articles from another site and would like to submit them to CC. However, when I google the byline they are coming up even though they are not available. They are also written in another name and not my pen name. How do I deal with these two issues when I try to submit them to CC? Than...

previously published content

I am interested in using articles that have been published online but never sold. I see from a former answer that the byline must be the same to avoid plagiarism charges. Does byline refer to the pen name or the title of the article? My pen name on this site is different from that on the other site....

keeping account active

I apologize if this answer is somewhere on the site, but I can't find it! How often do I have to write articles to keep my account active?

Title Correction

I have the same question myself. Does one need to totally resubmit to change the title?

writer pool

I have found the section for the writer pool but I cannot switch between available and unavailable so I presume I need to apply first? I can't see anywhere on that page to apply. Please let me know where to do so. Thanks!

Pay Pal payment

I just received my first usage sale and it was full price! I note that this is now my only article that does not have a delete button on my account. Why is that? Also, I gather the payment has gone to my pay pal account but how do I get it out of there? Is it sent to me via check when it gets to a c...

Sales

I just rejected my first offer but am a little discouraged that I have not sold anything yet...I would like to edit the content that is visible to my buyers as I feel I may not be allowing them to see the interesting parts of my articles. How do I make these edits?

Re: Just got my first offer

I too was so excited to get my best offer but it is below my asking price for usage and it is for full rights! That is less than half the amount I request for full rights. Can I negotiate or is it just accept or refuse? I was thrilled but am now so disappointed!
