    Does reposting RSS feeds hurt site ranking?

    vBulletin provides the option for RSS Feed bots to automatically repost RSS feeds within a set forum. Does this hurt site ranking for the same reasons that duplicate content does?

    A small feed with news/etc that makes a few posts a day will not hurt.
    But, if 90% of your content is RSS feeds, your site will not rank well.
