A helpful hint:
When you are quoting something you need to make that clear.
The readers will easily know and it will keep Cheetah off your back.
Put a '>' in front of the words that you are quoting.
Like this:
This is Quote and I want to make that clear.
Much thanks LindaCanadianCoconut @canadian-coconut, Help is always appreciate as I do hope that in the future I will be able to make a greater contribution to Steemit. I edited the post and will remember in the future. Again thanks! BTW are there any coconuts in Canada or are you the only one? 😃
ha ha ... I am just a Canadian who likes coconuts and uses a lot of coconut oil and sometimes buys coconut water to drink.
I don't see the edit changes.
Here is a video that may help you with that.

Thanks! I must have missunderstood. All the same I think I will just post photo until I can develop a new way to post where the scammers can not take advantage of my post. Cheetah and steemcleaner are the two biggest scammers on Steemit. They have everyone fooled and scared. My profession was Director of Casino Surveillance and I investigate things. When I find time I will put the information together and present it. It just takes a lot of work to present the case and it is not worth my time when so few people will see and even fewer will take action due to fear. Again thanks, I do appreciate you taking the time to try and help.
What Cheetah and steemcleaners are trying to do is to stop scammers actually.
There have been many people who have come on Steemit and post other people's content, claiming it as their own.
They get votes for somebody else's work.
This is probably considered the biggest taboo here on Steemit.
What people post here is supposed to be their own content.
Of course we may quote other people's content,
as long as you add your own thoughts to it and acknowledge that the quoted part isn't your own.
Cheetah is a bot,
so it can't tell your intentions.
So that is why it doesn't flag people, but rather upvotes them and leaves a comment behind to let people know that it found material that is already elsewhere on the web.
I'm sorry that you have been bothered by this, and misunderstood it.
If you follow my original suggestions,
and clearly acknowledge through the proper tools that you are quoting someone,
you should have no problem.
I wish you the best here on Steemit.
