• 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.

I put up a suggestion y'day re the creation of maybe a Sticky showing Anti-2A vs Pro-2A companies. ..something maybe near the top of the forum Main Page where it would be hard to miss by anyone visiting the site. I rcvd a Response later that day but before I had a chance to study it & respond the entire OP appears to have been deleted in General Discussion. Anyway, maybe it was determined to be inappropriate for General Discussion. ..not sure as I haven't been contacted. Anyway, if someone could fill me in on what's going on with my OP that would be great. I could re-write my argument for having the Sticky I've suggested if need be or if someone at TFLF has that OP maybe I need not do so. Just let me know. Thanks.
 
The moderating staff discussed your suggestion and decided that it it's basically political activism, which is not allowed under the rules of The Firing Line.
