Sourcing it is fine. The rule indicates that the user in question is passing it off as their own. Citing a source ≠ plagiarism (unless there's improper citing).

33. This includes both copying parts or the entirety of other users' posts or threads and copying content from external sources (e.g. other websites) and passing it as your own.


I just wanted to ask because I recently saw a fellow member in this forum who mostly posts copy pasted contents from some popular websites but he always put the source at the bottom. The question is it okay to reply a topic with copy pasted content from the internet and just put some source at the bottom?
