IE, two identical comments, each on a separate forum. Technically, wouldn't the latter infringe on the copyright of the former?

Even if you do infringe, chances are the only action taken will be a request to the site moderators to remove the comment.
Depends on who the copyright holder is, apparently.

You or me and it probably wouldn't even be taken seriously. Somebody with enough clout, and the FBI will start taking down the site.
