• 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.

Everything is always new???

Hello,

I have switched browsers to IE instead of netscape.
I also am on a cable modem now with a firewall.
Lately I discover I cannot seem to get the forums software to save what has new threads or not. So when I reenter the forums everything always appears new.

Is this because my firewall is preventing cookies being written to my hard drive? If so is there a port number the firing line uses that I can allow through the firewall?

Thanks in advance for any help.
Mike
 
I believe the new topics are shown based on your login. That allows you to keep updated from both work and home. Do you log on and off when you come here?
 
me too,...sorta....

I try to stay logged on. That is, I never logout.
Have been on cable modem for a couple of years; firewall for several months.
Lately (last 5-6 wks), I seem to have been logged out.
Have to re-register or log-on even just a few hours since my last visit. Happens intermittently; no rhyme or reason. What gives?:confused:
