Guys, we like to have threads started based on credible media links not Twitter, facebook, some rumour you heard, blogs or clickbait sites designed to make the owners a sackful of cash by posting drivel based on nothing. Some of the sites we allow are still rediculous in origin and content but because its a grey area we'd spend an inordinate amount of time sifting through them all but Blogs? Easy, just don't post them. If they contain anything credible there will be a link on a proper media site so you can post that instead.
'credible'……Yeah I know, I know but nevertheless……..
If you've had to work hard to find it and the source is a vague, out of the way source in Armenia then it's not for us. The same with overseas sites.
I guess that means UK mainstream media outlets, newspapers, TV stations etc etc. You all know the difference, so lets see if we can cut down on the ka-ka………
So basically, if there's not a link, on a credible UK mainstream news site, there's not a thread.
Oh and absolutely NO TWITTER. EVER. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
NO MORE LINKS FROM HITC OR CLICKBAIT, BLOG 'SITES. YOU CAN SPOT THESE (OFTEN TIMES) BY THE SHEDLOAD OF ADS AND POPUPS YOU SEE.
UPDATE: NO LINKS FROM THE DAILY STAR ANY MORE. THEY HAVE TAKEN TO USING SHITHOUSE WEBSITES AS 'SOURCES'
