• 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.

Re two "Lowes" posts in GD

KEWL-

Gotta call you QIK-Rich now.

Thanks - your speed is unprecedented even in the cyber age.

FWIW, I ran into your "change in motion" - got a "If you have a headache, talk to the Webmaster." msg - you were no doubt in mid-stream. I, also in midstream, was trying to save my brainstorm (reply to Mike). By time I cut and pasted the text and added the front and back end, you'd hit your stride and (using your fancy-dancy software) migrated the replies. Of course, I then edited out the (again) dupe language, since I'd already hit the button.

Good gosh, Rich - I think we just set some sort of a record for fixing a dupe... like well-meshed gears. Of course, I'd really like to know - which one of us had the fastest trigger finger? :D

Thank you sir. Heck of an exercise - and without the old "... this is not a drill."

Just don't think this means we're gonna be taking long moonlight strolls together.....though I might be talked into a quick Mambo (I lead, of course). :cool:
