Yes as long as you will reference the first place which you first posted it so that it don’t appear like plagiarism..

Edit: A lot of members disagreed that this can not be seen as plagiarism as long as you share it from your own account, even when it's in another forum as long as it's the same username, everything should be fine, but it's still safer to add or quote yourself if you must clear things up.

Same topics have been discussed in both forums in the past and there is no problem with that.

You can actually bring topics discussed from not just Altcointalk forum here but also topics from other forums or other places as long as it doesn’t breaks the rules here. Which are either;

1. The discussion must be meaningful and not spam.
2. Is your personal post on that forum if not the real source should be cited/referenced here
3. Shouldn’t be referral links or all sort of things the forum prohibits.

Bringing some topics here most especially technical questions can get you some solutions here.

I won't call it plagiarism when the author is just the same user. But yes, providing reference and sources of the copied statements/post is still better than just plain copy/paste post behaviour.

You cannot plagiarize your own post.

It will be considered low effort post, that is why you need to reference the post as from where it came from.

Of course you can so long it's originally your topic. However I don't really advise it though kinda looks like low quality spamming except it's a really important topic but regardless it's not really nice to just copy paste instead you can present the information in a slightly different approach on both forums.... Just my 2 cents.

Yes as long as you will reference the first place which you first posted it so that it don’t appear like plagiarism..

Are you sure about this? Plagiarism is more like pirating someone else's content. So long it's your content you are actually free to use it as you like but courtesy demands you don't just copy paste.

[coinlary]

They are 2 different forums, and each name shows what exactly is majorly being discussed. The question you’re asking is just like saying “Can I post the same thing I posted on Facebook to X (formerly Twitter)”

Of course, nobody cares as long as it’s worth discussing and you’re not breaking any rules where you’re creating the duplicate.

On this forum, the only rule you’re likely to break is plagiarism, which has already been cleared by Hazink. If it’s obvious that you own both accounts, that can be disregarded.

The question you supposed to ask on this forum is if you can post what you have posted on Altcoinstalks before on Bitcointalk. So also go to Altcoinstalks to ask if you can post what you have posted on Bitcointalk before on Altcoinstalks.

Both Bitcointalk and Altcoinstalks allowed it if it is topic or you are responding to the same topics on each forum, but not that you should turn it to multi posting of spam.

@Obim34, @Mia Chloe

We also have what's referred to as self plagiarism, plagiarizing your own words. It's not common, but it also exists. For for me to be on the safer side if the op wants to bring his own topic from another forum to this place, or if he wants to send a topic from here to the other forum either reference link or just quoting the content might actually do more good than copy and paste even if others don't see it as plagiarism I some can still consider it as self plagiarism including me.

Self plagiarism that you are talking about is when people are posting on this forum and posting it on this forum again, it is not about what OP is asking.

Yes, actually it will actually be more good to quote it, but as long as it is your own topic (which I think is the reason the OP of this thread is asking this), there is no problem, the moderator or admin will not ban him. There are people that are doing this and nothing has happened.

  yeah that makes sense. i just wanted to save some time because making different posts for both forums takes longer.

since the text is mine i think it should be ok.

Self plagiarism is only a thing in academic circles when you consider the articles and journals it was posted in originally who have some rights to the work. In all academic writings proper citations is required even if you're quoting yourself.

In unofficial forums like this one it will not get anyone in trouble, as long as you can prove you're the author of the first published version, you are good.

[Hazink]

Self plagiarism that you are talking about is when people are quoting themselves on this forum and posting it on this forum, it is not about what OP is asking.

That's not self plagiarism. I disagree with this. If you are quoting yourself, then you are telling people that you have said that thing before and not presenting it as a total new idea, so that can't be called self plagiarism, even in the case of replying to one self like you are a different person don't fall under the definition of what's known as plagiarism.

Yes, actually it will actually be more good to quote it, but as long as it is your own topic (which I think is the reason the OP of this thread is asking this), there is no problem, the moderator or admin will not ban him. There are people that are doing this and nothing has happened.

According to Wikipedia, what the op is explaining still falls under the definition of self plagiarism as long as there is not given reference to the first content.

Duplicate publication, multiple publication, redundant publication or self-plagiarism refers to publishing the same intellectual material more than once, by the author or publisher. It does not refer to the unauthorized republication by someone else, which constitutes plagiarism, copyright violation, or both.

So that no one has any questions, post your text here on this forum first. After some time has passed, post your text on another forum. This way, the timing of the posts on both forums will differ; the text posted on this forum will be considered the source, since it was posted earlier than the one on the other forum.

[Obim34]

@Obim34, @Mia Chloe

That is duplicate posting, and it is also a forum offense, except when referenced as an older reply.

I can requote my older reply for a similar discussion that fits in, instead of rewriting the same thing.

I also talked about referencing to be important, don't misunderstand me.

Reusing my own content (writeups) cannot be seen as plagiarism.

Of course, if you are the author of that post, then of course you can share the same post on two platforms, but to avoid confusion, mention the source link. If you mention the link of the post in the forum where you posted earlier, then there will be no confusion because plagiarism tools will definitely detect that your post is plagiarism because the same post will be seen in two places. That is why it can create confusion.

If the post you make is informative in both forums, then of course you can do that. However, if it happens that you copy and paste the discussions that you normally have in both forums to easily increase your post count in both forums. Then of course this can create problems because it will be spamming.

I just feel like if it's not a complete thread, he should just be original in both forums by creating the thread differently.
Even if it's a gigantic thread, he can briefly discuss the idea on the other forum and link the thread in this forum to it.

What then is even the essence of discussion same topic in two forums when only one forum will give you exhaustible answer to the thread.
If I were you, I would choose to be unique in the two different forums.

I think it’s for exposure, the thread on that other forum might not have had a resounding answer for the OP and he might wants more light thrown on that and that’s why he would decide to bring it, otherwise it’s not necessary bringing it here. Although we can put exceptions if the discussion here will still bring same answers as on the other forum earlier posted.

For example let’s look at a discussion on social media like X; take for example one is asking for a better hardware wallet I would tell you that such discussions wouldn’t get an unbiased response as it would here. So this is the cases where the discussion can be discussed on two different places.

In this case, the discussion is not about "originality," but about the legality of such actions on this forum. The question of originality is a subject for another topic.

First of all, your content in your topic must by yours, original content is the best. If you copied the content from somewhere else, make sure leaving a source link in your topic.

Second, depends on which forum is the first place you published that content, it is a source for your topic with same content in a second forum. For example, if you post a topic in Bitcointalk forum, then reuse it in Altcoinstalks forum, in Altcoinstalks you must have a source link to Bitcointalk where you posting it initially.

Remember, if content is reused, a source link is mandate.
