cut/paste articles

Can we make it a rule or something that if you're going to just cut and paste a news article that you should have to add some commentary of your own

I think this was already made a rule about a year or so ago

Why? The reason I posted these articles, almost all of which I got sent to me by email, is because I thought they maybe interesting for you guys to read. If you guys don't want me to post them, let me know and I will stop.

I'm just saying you cut/paste and dont comment on your own (often). I'd say over half of your articles are just posted without any further comment from you.

half? how about like 95%


it's not that the articles aren't interesting, it's just that 99% of them I've seen somewhere else, and just reposting them here isn't productive


posting one, then starting a conversation about it is one thing

but posting, then expecting someone else to start the conversation is kinda lame
