• 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.

How 'bout a forum for the endless glock/1911 and 9mm/45 dabates?

So that I don't have to see them.

Dean,
Help me out here.
There's an easy way for folks to get around irritating threads. Ignore them. Or, scan them and THEN ignore them. ;)

Only the staff is required to read all the posts on all the threads. Other folks could skip what bothers them - but so many seem intent on reading what makes them angry and then griping all over the people involved.

My problem is, how do we tell people to "skip what upsets you" without sounding nasty or overbearing?

I haven't had much success in that area! :D
Any ideas???
 
We're REQUIRED to read all threads?

Oops!


;)
Kidding! I read everything... almost...

Well I was mostly joking. I do pretty much ignore them.

Oh, and by the way, I prefer the .45 ACP over the 9mm, for obvious reasons.
 
Dean,

But of course you prefer the .45, as all of us "real" shooters do. That cute little 9mm round is only for play, practice, competition, little girls, tupperware parties, etc.

(INCOMING!!!)
