I also just wanted to add that when I posted something in USN I was not posting it in hopes to get it put on the front page, and im also positive that others also were not posting articles simply to have them put on the front page. Just saying. From what I gather, we can still copy and paste articles but just not in USN as every thread in the USN is apparently submitted for front page approval( I remember having to click on something for this before).
no, that option is useless anyway

you cant copy and paste anywhere on the forum.
p1ngpong has been locking threads in general off topic etc

I think i get it but... what if the article you're sourcing is really short itself? (eg Eurogamer news). Are we then allowed to copy the entire article?
heres an idea: use your own words

I always put my own thoughts after the article but I feel re-writing an entire article would
1) Waste far too much time seeing as you're simply re-writing what has already been written
2) Create a strong bias in nearly every article posted in USN seeing as most people on the temp have... strong views....
i did it im sure you could too.
