Sure - you can do this. :)

Is okay with most forums, however, some don't allow it.

I have actually done this with a question I had because I wanted different feedback from a variety of people. I just mentioned within that post that I will be submitting it to other forums just so I didn't confuse people if they saw that same post in a different forum.

some would allow it. but would not especially forum with huge members :p. with that kind of forum you may not want to do that because i have test it and got banned from that :D

I guess I should have gone into this a bit further. Yes, you can, but you should always check the terms of service. What would you really want to duplicate anyway? If it is an informational post, there shouldn't be a problem, it all depends on what it is and how many places you are posting it.

If you are going to submit to other post the same information for more input of answers, try to change your wording just like what you do with articles. That way it is not duplicated.

Also as Mod 1 mentioned, all forums are different in what they allow and dont allow. Read before posting. One thing to also remember is to only post your question once in the forum. If moderators keep up on the forums they frown on duplicate posts and will send out a warning or ban that person.:)
