• 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.

Disappearing posts

Give us a hint, do you recall the topic of a post that was deleted?

You posted in the "New to me USP" thread a few minutes ago and your post is alive and well. Is there another one?

Are you refreshing the page after you have posted?
 
Hi Mal and thanks for your reply. Yes the post in the "New to me USP" thread is still there, not sure what I did different. Posts in the "IWB carry issues, what do you use" on 6-8-09, "XD concealed carry holsters what's your favorite" 5-31-09, 2 attempts in the "I think I've found my ccw (Kahr CW9)" 5-29-09 and one in the "Kel-Tec .380" 5-20-09 still seem to be missing. I'm not the most computer savy guy in the world so I'm probably doing something wrong, I just have no Idea what! As you can see I've posted a bunch of times with no problems so I'm not sure what changed. What did you mean by refreshing the page after posting? Thanks for trying to help.
 
Ok after I posted my last reply it didn't show so I figured out how to refresh the page and boom there it was. Strange, never had to do that before. Anyway it looks like the problem may be solved thanks.
