It has come to my attention that there have been users on this board copying content from premium LSU sites or other sources and putting it on this board. This has to stop. You can not copy content word for word and put it on here. You can repeat (in a summary fashion) info found on other sites, and you should credit those sites.

Also, please do not use this forum to bash the other LSU sites. On the flip side, don't use this forum to promote the other LSU sites. The point of this board is to discuss recruiting and how it affects LSU. Let's keep the focus on that.

Best Regards,
Chicken

good post, but for some reason people do not have respect these days.

I've started seeing it more and more. I don't post nearly as much once school has begun but I still lurk quite a bit.

I am part of the guilt crowd that pushes one pay site over another. I'll do my best to refrain from that in the future.

All hail the chicken man. I would love to see the bashing of kids intelligence as well, but that's just me.

After what Winthorp and Valentine did to them it was good to know that a nice African prince was able to help them get back on their feet.

This is debatable. If the copyright owners don't want it posted here, it's their responsibility to send a takedown notice. All this site has to do is comply with the notice. There is no duty to proactively police the board.

Also, yes you can definitely post quotes from a premium article, which is all that we really care about anyways. You can't own the spoken words of another person, so a premium site doesn't own the quotes of a recruit.

I've made this argument for years...you can't copyright "Billy Bob left practice early today because of a ruptured nostril joint"

I am not suggesting that the info on other sites can't make its way to this site in some summarized form (with credit to the oringinating site) for discussion?

Copying and pasting is what I am talking about. And the bagging on and/or promoting of those other sites. Needs to stop.
