• 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.

Every time I post a thread it disappears. I can find it by doing a search, but it doesn't show up in any of the forums. What gives?
 
Please supply a link to a thread of yours that you can find, but doesn't appear in a forum.

In general, if you can find a thread in a search then you can find it in a forum. Are you sure you're going back far enough in the forum, datewise, to find the thread?
 
Sorry I don't know how to post a link. The thread I posted this morning was titled "Value of a smith 1006" and should be in the semi auto forum.
Same thing with this thread, should be in Tech support forum, but I don't see it.
 
Well, both threads are exactly where they are supposed to be, and perfectly visible to the rest of the world. That's a new one, and I have no clue what might be causing it.

Can I assume you see other threads in the forums? Which browser/version are you using?

You didn't put yourself on your own ignore list, did you? ;)
