Is This Going To Hurt My Forums

[tunescool]

i know you have to have original content. but i had to start new forums, my forum that took up all my time everyday is gone. ones a general forum and the other ones an entertainment forum, but they have some forums that are the same

i didnt think about this but i started putting the same threads on those forums. i dont think the thread titles are gonna be a big deal with google. thread titles across every forum on the internet can totally be similiar everyday

i ilke to take the title and copy and paste it in capital letters and bold it for the start of the post. i have maybe 50 threads that are the same on both forums. most of them just have the title for a question in the post and thats all. you think thats a big deal for seo

then i have a movie, tv, music, forum on both of them. i started making these big posts for like whats your favorite comedies and some others

i just have the titles of the movies and some cast followed by a description copied from imdb or wikipedia or somewhere. im a horribe writer and i think its nice to have a long description there if peope want to see it. then a youtube trailor

then i just copied them to my other forum, my stuff didnt think about it. some threads have like 3 or 4 of those decriptions with trailors

is it really gonna be that bad for my new forums. the copying just a description from imdb or wikipedia, it aint the whole page

I can't really see it being a big deal, however I wouldn't advise doing it any longer as it could start to harm your SEO.

This is good only for short-run. After sometime, you will regret doing it. I have written an article, this article consists of some rules: http://www.clanica.biz/2014/02/25-kille ... ed-google/

I feel that the content you're putting on your forum isn't the type of content that will spark interesting, unique discussions. I don't quite understand why you're taking content from other sites to post on your own.

Regardless of whether it'll specifically harm your site, it won't help you rank higher at all because it's not unique content. I don't get what the end goal is here.

It's probably not going to cause that much of an issue, but it won't help much either. Basically, Google would just ignore it because the original source is already indexed with the exact same content.

Might not really be a big deal.
