• 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.

Refreshing the browser for TFL

Well guys, I don't know what the problem was I was having with refreshing the pages for TFL, but the problem has fixed itself.

I didn't change one thing on my browser settings. It just starting mysteriously working again.

After voting in a poll, it automatically takes you to the results like it did before and the new posts to a topic automatically are bumped to the top of the "View New Posts" page as before.

???????:rolleyes:
 
Perhaps the software upgrade from last week?

I'm really not certain of anything but this: In the race to provide new technologies, simply because they exist, we've encountered the Law of Unintended Consequences. Who can honestly say (except for shopping) that the Internet, laptops, desktops, modem cards, USB's, PCMCIA's, palmtops, handhelds, drivers, firmware, browsers, email, viruses and the like has actually made their life easier?

For me, I have less time than I ever did.....mainly because of the time involved in maintaining and understanding all the new hardware and software that becomes a must have and keeping up with the information overload that's pushed at me from every direction.

And so it is with our discussion software: Cutting edge stuff.....PM's, Polls, Thread Merge, Thread Move, Thread Split, avatars, vBCode, CSS Styles, Subscribe to this Thread, Customize Profile, Who's Online......it's all great stuff. But it demands that everyone "step up" their software.

So who's life is really getting easier with these "advances"...mine or the Microsoft Development Team?
