• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

This may have already been done or suggested but:

What about setting an option to check/list all your past posts by thread and/or topic?
I thought this would be a great idea, usually it takes me about an hour just to locate and reply to past threads/topics.
Is this just my selfish thought or are there others who like the idea?

Kind Regards,
 
Search->Advanced search
Type in your username on the right
On the left, under Search options, change "Find posts from" to "a week ago" or whatever you want.
 
Anthony2 - an alternative is to click on your own name, either in a thread you contributed to (such as this one) or on the index page at the bottom where all active members are listed (your name should be the first one). Then select the appropriate item: "Find more posts by Anthony2" - or - "Find all posts by Anthony2".

This will give you a complete list of your posts up to the limit allowed by the search engine (currently 400). In order to see more or to refine the list, you need to use Search with its various filters as tyme described. The 400 limit is still in effect, but by using the time filters, you might be able to find older threads.
