I’ve posted mag review scores, rumours etc myself but include scans of the mag, this is really just a forum post.

Paul: I'll look into that one.  Forum posts are only acceptable when they contain screens or are from an industry insider/pro.

Charlie2688: got it.

Not huge, but: http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-151640.aspx did not use the title from the article
 
Edit: @ Cat, I know, I had to look twice.

I'm gonna let it go since the original story no longer links to the scans (scans look like they were pulled).

Hey can a mod look into this please.
It's not news, it's very mis-leading and it really isn't funny even for the joke it's meant to be....well the last part may be my own opinion but the first two points are valid.

Ok, I think this http://www.n4g.com/industrynews/News-151861.aspx is a dub of this http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-151699.aspx
 
Also this should not have been aproved http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/NewsPendingCom-151906.aspx?CT=1
 
It is also exactly the same as a previous submission which failed http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/NewsPendingCom-151805.aspx?CT=1

While other major websites don't use this guys information as a confirmation.

I’ve an issue with this one: http://www.n4g.com/ps3/NewsCom-152063.aspx?CT=1
 
 
Submitting something from ‘Play it Review it’, is basically the same as submitting a blog or user review, from the N4G sections, to go on the front page, as anyone can write them.

hmm, since he includes the site in the title I'm still not seeing the problem.  Slow Monday for me, maybe??

Hi I know this is correct but it's being reported.

http://n4g.com/ps3/NewsPending-152815.aspx
This article is the official review from the website hence it's the original source.

http://n4g.com/NewsCom-151661.aspx
This was the first submission to break the score with scans.
However now the link is dead and only an alternate source of a page filled with images remains.

My story, the first one, is the original source and thus should be treated with greater priority over  the 2nd which displays the score, but doesn't contain any further information.

-EDIT-

How did it fail?!
How can the source of the information fail?

-EDIT 2-

"Posting Duplicated Stories (Rules & Guidelines)

However if the story posted on N4G is not the original source of the story it is ok to make a new post but only if it links to the original source of the story. If your story is not the original source you must post it as an alternative source."

Probably failed automatically due to so many dupe reports.  I'll contact you via PM.
