• 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.

OK, I'm slow, but where...

...is DC? I noticed a little while ago that she isnt moderating the Legal board. I usually just check out the reloading forum, so I guess thats why it took so long to see this change. Just curious...
 
DC is now a roving Administrator. She stops by several times a week, lurking mostly. When she posts, it's with her customary refreshing insight. Unfortunately, she simply does not have the time to devote that she once did.

If TFL were a ship, there's be a bust of her on the bowsprit! We miss her.

Here I be. As Rich noted, I don't have the time I used to have...work and now my son is almost 3...can't just give him a toy or chunk of meat and expect him to stay occupied ;)

Thanks
