 News posting rules
« Thread Started on Jan 3, 2007, 3:12pm »

Okay, since this is a board where major world events will be posted, I think some general rules should be placed.

1) If your post is to debate with other members, then you may do so.

2) If you are posting news stories, however, it will be necessary for the user to cite their sources; state the website name, date of publication, and put the url. This is just simple primary/secondary source citing so that it could be analyzed for liability and such. Thanks for the cooperation.

Edit by Shuichi ; Also, I wanted to mention that the "citing of the website" rule is also for copyright purposes. We dont wanna get in trouble folks!
