Title: Quick question - can I crosspost from Reddit?
Post by: HodorHodl on February 05, 2018, 06:49:13 PM
Might be my material, might not be. Some good posts on the Cryto board there, and I'd maybe like to reference some.

Is this allowed?

(will delete post when answered, and thank you for your help!)

If you are asking that you can copy posts from there or not, that is not allowed. Posting copied content here leads to permanent ban when caught.

Quote and reference. If you do that, then all is good.

Perfect, thank you very much. I don't have any wish to plagiarise, just some good content on there at the moment, which I think the Beginner's board could use.

And this is quote from Bitcointalk rules:
Quote
This includes both copying parts or the entirety of other users' posts or threads and copying content from external sources (e.g. other websites) and passing it as your own.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0
So, if you want to post content from Reddit discussion, you have to quote it and give reference link, as actmyname said.
And I recommend to read rules of Bitcointalk to be sure what is allowed here and what isn't
Now you can just lock this thread, there is no need to delete, maybe someone will find it useful ;)
