HELLO HIVE
As we journey through each day been mentored by great minds, we get to learn new things that govern this great platform. One thing have come to realize so far is that learning is gold and when we have an opportunity to learn from men and women of calibers, it shouldn't be trivialize.

Last weekend, Sunday to be pricise we held our second meeting on discord and just like the first, the second was awesome. Acknowledging our host is no other person but ma'am 
Without further delay, below are my answers for task two.
Question 1: how is Hive different from other social media platforms web 2
Hive is a decentralized social blockchain, whereby it is not governed by individual, group of people and even the government. Every authors on hive have control over their accounts and every single transactions.
Unlike the web 2 platform like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter they are controlled by individuals or groups because they own it. It users don't have the power to control his or her account their own ways and most especially users on centralized platforms do most of the work as they earn rewards for the owners not themselves. moreover their funds is not hundred percent safe as any point in time it can be taken away from them without a vivid reason.
Compared to Hive, it deals with a high level of transparency, every blogger has legal right to their content and when another is caught stealing contents will be severely punished by Hive watchers also known as the police of Hive like we were taught. One feature about Hive that is different from web two platforms is that every one is a verified member as far as on-boarding process is successful compared to Facebook and others where one need a verified blue check mark.
Question 2: vividly explain the following terminologies
*Plagiarism
*vote begging
*post recycling
Plagiarism is a situation or a practice whereby an author takes another authors content and personalize it as their own. Here on Hive, plagiarism is one of the don't as it is considered theft. So in order not to go against the rules guiding the platform it is necessary to always give attribute to the original author and properly source photos if they don't belong to us.
Vote begging is an act whereby an individual goes about begging for an upvote on their post and one way it is done is unnecessary tagging of people who do not know they even exist on the platform. Vote begging is prohibited as it may attract down vote rather than upvote.
With simple example, it is a scenery where a person had it in mind to publish his or her content in the Hive Learners community but made a mistake publishing it in his or her personal blog or any other community. rather than leaving it as it is, they decided to go ahead to publish in their desired community with little or no correction. Hive watchers frowned at this and anyone is going to be penalize.
Question 3: In what ways is the use of tags necessary
The use of tags is necessary because it helps alot especially the authors as curators gets to see post related search for curation when the right tags are used. Also other uses on Hive finds it easy as well when searching for specific content to read.
Do you think that wrong use of tags attract down vote?
My answer is yes. wrong use of tags attract down votes for example: the newbie tag, introductory tag may attract a down vote when used in post that is not a newbie introduction on Hive as it is used only for introductions.
List five general tags
*neoxian
*proofofbrain
*creativecoin
*pimp
*Hive-engine
Thank you for your time, peace 🕊️
