• 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.

I think it would be nice if somebody would Post something on the General Discussion Forum about checking out some of the other Forums especially the Lock and Load Forum. I placed a post about a Pennsylvania get together and it got locked out and moved to Lock and Load where it should have been in the first place but hardly anyone responded once it left the General Discussion forum. I know there are more folks here that are from my Area but they don't see the Post that "ArmySon" and I put up. It would be nice if more people would have get togethers from the TFL besides Utah Ohio and PA. I'm noticing in the Pa an Ohio Posts we were disappointed by the lack of response. I think we are the only ones that know that Forum is there. Somebody Spread the word around on the General Discussion forum every once in awhile about other Forums OK ????

I'm surprised nobody at TFL is responding to this I think its valid issue here. It would be nice if more TFLer's knew about get togethers in there own states.
 
I understand your concern... You would think these would be more popular. We've been working at the Utah TFL Gatherings for some time. We have had 2 successful ones in the past and that has caused them some growth - but its still not that busy. Feel free to post a flag in General about the Gathering of your choice and invite some eyeballs to go look. Lock and Load is an Under Used forum - I guess because people like to talk smack instead of throwing down.
You know how it is - Braggards and Big Mouths but when it comes time to lay it on the line - Always an Excuse...
