On posting news which is posted elsewhere....
I was recently asked about the posting of previously posted news articles and I thought I'd address that here as well.
Feel free to post any reptile related news article you find that is not already posted in this forum.
Even if one article is posted here already, many times another article is found with significant additional information. Add that to the existing post.
You may find news articles posted on other herp sites. By all means, post them here as well. Many people, myself included, don't spend a lot of time on various forums and we won't see the post there.
Even if an article is posted somewhere else on this site I think it would be appropriate to cross post it here in this forum. For news articles of particular interest to a specific forum, the article should still be posted here and a link to it posted in the specific interest forum to alert the members there. This avoids the problem of more than one discussion going on at the same time.
Not everyone visits every forum on this site either, and this particular forum is solely for news and the discussion of those events. Posting news articles here makes it easier for someone to catch up on all the reptile news with one forum stop.
