| Bandorr said: The issue with requiring people to "source" their material - is the source its self. People aren't making up stuff like "Threads made concerning an event must be sourced- you can't make a thread saying Hillary Clinton has raped 20 men and run away with a smirk." They are reading it on Breitbart, InfoWars, Dredge Report, or any numerous amount of fake(and I actually do mean fake) websites. So instead of them saying it, they are just quoting someone else saying it. Without actual fact checking and credible sources - "citing your sources" means nothing. |
Yeah, I guess I haven't thought about that.
if VGChartz were to make a banlist on sources, then I'm sure it'd only bring trouble.
I'm not sure if doing something about this or just leaving it is smarter.
