different from what you would imagine a rubber duck to be.

I like the new avatar! The devil duck seemed a bit odd, but I think that was the point.

What I quickly learnt in any case (fortunately, before I made such a mistake): Either use your own images or credit the source.

Many years ago, when people were earning over $100 per post (yes, that was happening), you had to prove you were who you said you were and you had to have 100% original content. There were some "famous" names joining, that turned out to be fake account.

It seems the overbearing over site has diminished somewhat, although some are very sensitive about AI content. I don't have a problem with AI, as long as credit is given, but it's usually obvious.

I notice that standards are very high and regulated when HIVE is valuable, but not when it's at a lower value. The real standard is somewhere in the middle.
