• 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.

Help!

I am having log in problems. I try to log in, and I am thanked for logging in, then the page returns to the log in page. I had trouble in the past, and it turned out to be a cookie block, but I have checked this repeatedly now, and can find no block of TFL in my settings. After trying about 12 times to log in unsuccesfully, I suddenly found that I WAS logged on! What?

I tried to send a mesage thru the "contact us" button, but the program is thru outlook express, and it wants server info that I dont know how to provide. Posting here is the only way I can figure out how to get help with this.

Thanks for any assistance, Malamute
 
Try logging out and then closing your browser (Internet program)

Come back to TFL and log in. If it takes you back to the log in page, hit the refresh/reload button. It is likely a browser setting on your computer that is doing it.
