• 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.

Lock and Load / Range reports

Have the folks in charge considered eliminating the Lock and Load forum and allowing the Handgun, Shotgun, and Rifle forums to be where range reports are posted? It would just seem easier to research brand X pistol if you could just search 1 forum to see what people said about it and how it performed at the range. The Lock and Load forum has far fewer posts than the shotgun, rifle and pistol forums, so couldn't they absorb the traffic well? Thanks for listening.
 
Actually, LocknLoad is fairly busy. Unfortunately, I deleted all the posts prior to April of this year by mistake. :o so it appears to be slower.

Additionally, we will be moving to the new software in a matter of days. The search feature there is *very* fast and allows a search of all forums. Check it out at http://www.thefiringline.com:8080
