A Humble Apology and Request for Reconsideration

To: @Kyle

Hello WA Admin and Community,

I’m writing this with a sincere and humble heart. My write access was recently revoked after one of my posts was reported as spam, and I want to take full responsibility and offer my deep apology to the WA Admin team and the entire WA community.

I’ve been an active member of Wealthy Affiliate since 2018, and WA has meant a lot to me both in learning and personal growth. If my post came across as spammy or against WA guidelines, it was never my intention, and I truly regret it.

This has been a valuable learning moment for me. I deeply respect WA’s values and guidelines, and I’m committed to doing better moving forward.

With humility and respect, I kindly request the WA Admin team to reconsider and allow me to regain my write access. I truly value being part of this community.

Thank you for your time and understanding.

Warm regards,
Paul

Hi Paul, your sincerity and humility really shines through in this message. Admitting your mistakes and asking for a new look with such clarity is already a mark of maturity and respect for everyone. I hope that your desire to do better will be taken into account, so that you can continue to contribute with the same generosity

Thank you Lanicheducl! I appreciate your thoughts.

Paul.

I don't read any of your posts, Paul, they are just AI slop! Blogging at Wealthy Affiliate should be about your online journey, not AI posts, which say nothing about your genuine online business experience.

If you are really apologising, then stop writing AI slop and write engaging posts.

I look forward to seeing some real posts about your online journey, Paul.

Have a good weekend.

Forgive me, Roy, if I step in...

His blogs are not prompt AI and go...
They are a short and very powerful shot, resolving one problem at a time. I truly enjoy his blogs as daily business quotes regarding WA, WordPress, and business. Very original ...

And yes, I hear you… where is the effort?
I believe in his experience.

So again, forgive me for stepping in.
Just telling how his blogs resonate with me.

Being in short of time, I like crisp and bold and tend to skip long emotional stuff that seldom adds either...

I hope you do not mind.

Let us thrive together...

Wishing you both a peaceful day, please

✨ Fleeky

Ps
I love and appreciate you both
Very unique and yes, very different also

Good morning Fleeky,

Thank you for stepping in and making a comment, it's interesting how we see things in different ways, Fleeky, which is what I like about forums! It's always good to hear people's different thoughts on subjects.

For me, as a long-time member of Wealthy Affiliate, I believe that the blog posts that we write, should almost be documenting our journey, or maybe a struggle, or a win, where others can learn and help etc. As soon as I see a blog post is not personal, or AI written content, I quickly move off, this applies to Wealthy Affiliate and other platforms, as I want to hear people's real experiences.

I guess I could put up a blog post every day, it would probably take me a couple of minutes to produce, using AI, I could gain the Wealthy Affiliate earning system, but it's not being genuine about my real experience.

I appreciate that different posts and writing styles resonate with different people, which is perfectly understandable. But personally, I want to hear someone's real experience.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and have a great day.

Hi Roy.
I appreciate you coming out to share your piece of mind.

I admit, I use AI and we all do use AI for our content and don't forget I do my bit to prompt with the intent of my content, edit it before I publish.

I have my audiences here at Wealthy Affiliate.
I focus my blog posts on complete beginners at Wealthy Affiliate. I focus on motivating them in their Affiliate marketing journey. If you are a pro then my post will always frustrate you.

It's good to know that you decided not to read and I discourage you to read them because they're not for you as well as other pro Affiliate marketers here at WA.

I'm sorry but I write to motivate complete beginners.

Thanks for your understanding.

Paul.

Thanks, Roy.
Much appreciated.

Yes, Rob, I understand.
Thank you for sharing your views.

So, it is more about people abusing the system, knowing or unknowingly, right?

I guess the algorithms do their work... without human intervention.

And to be honest, I cannot reproduce what you, nor Paul, do, and admire you both...

And yes, for many, those pennies matter and make a difference... which humbles me a lot.

And for some, it becomes a competition to be on the front lines... with no content at all... that also .

So, not easy peas...

Thank you for your time. Much valued!
Have a great end of the week...

I feel the need to contribute to the conversation. So here is my contribution.

I like butter more than fake plant based margarine.

It is true Margarine has a higher smoke point, but you cannot overlook the true flavor that butter provides.

Butter is richer and margarine for me, leaves behind a greasy like texture in my mouth with I cannot either explain or tolerate.

I hope this was helpful!

Good morning Paul,

Thank you for your reply, it's appreciated.

I do hear where you're coming from, but the point of blogging at Wealthy Affiliate is based on documenting our journey, to try and help others. The fact fears with AI content, it doesn't really come from the heart, it's just manufactured, it's not your genuine experience.

Have you thought about trying to write about your genuine experience, rather than using AI and documenting your journey?

Have a great day.

Roy

Thanks, Roy.
Something I like to do on my websites.

I saw the article and was not really sure what happened. I would never think you did anything malicious on purpose because you are a good person. You have been a good, supportive WA family member for me and others and nobody should question your actions. You will always have my support. Good luck with everything.

Thank you, Anthony for standing up for me.
This is the second time i am being reported unnecessarily by the very same person.
It seems he has a problem with my contents here at Wealthy Affiliate.

I'm sorry to hear that! All the best.

Thanks, Anthony.
I wish you all the best, too.
Cheers.

I wish I could have seen it.

Oh no

Peter, it was a blow to me.

This is the second time i am being reported unnecessarily by the very same person.
He is so mean and picky.

2

Walk in forgiveness. God sees your heart and intention,not man.

Yes, Peter. This is the way to go.
Thank you.

What happened? What was the issue? Just asking.

Thank you for asking. I did a blog post on recent WA weekly challenge with my image generated for the challenge and the person who reported saw it as misleading.
This is the second time i am being reported unnecessarily by the very same person.
It seems he has a problem with me.

I shared everything with Kyle.

I hope it all works out.

My write access was granted last night.
Appreciate your concern.
