I'm not saying you are or are not allowed to do this, but if you do, make sure you put the full link the story somewhere visible.

Having look at the site its going to go on:

www.nintenreport.com

Please re-word any news that you get from N-Europe. Simply copying and pasting news from our site is basically unacceptable. You're not a blog, its a 'news' site. Sourcing isn't enough.

Canand I don't want you doing a straight copy and paste of our news. Like Jordan said, sourcing us but writing your own story is fine, but it's unprofessional to copy and paste news from another site.

Its a topic in some forum on the other side of the internet, do you guys rephrase everything you post on topics? Of course, source is the basic etiquette in copy pasta.

I suppose that would be a different case. Assuming you mean a blog like Go Nintendo, it would be fine as long as you sourced us. :)
