• 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.

Is it possible to set up a search for members in a location. ie: Members that show they are located in Ohio. Or have Ohio in their profile?
 
Sorry, not possible. The member's state is not one of the search fields as you probably know. However, even if it was it is not required that a member enter a location to be a member. So the search would be an incomplete listing anyway.
 
Joe,

Email me. I've been noting the names of members who live in Ohio as I wander the forums. I've got a list of about 30, most of whom are fairly active on TFL.

I'll send you a note.. Hope you already have the list in a format that you can send.. Would hate to take all your time away from the boards typeing it out! Something might happen if your away too long! LOL Just thought it would be nice to be able to do a bulk PM for gatherings and such.. Doesn't seem like alot watch the Live fire forum... PS When can we upgrade to so we can use aviators??? got one that I fell in lone with... The wife is even jealous! LOL

Currently you can't send a PM to more than five members at a time. I'm not sure if that limitation can be altered or if it is built into the software. It sure would be nice to be able to PM all 30 (or more) Ohio members at once. We could have a list for each state, and use it to invite everyone to a local TFL get-together.

P.S. You've got mail!
