[QUOTE="Todd Z, post: 958316, member: 58941"] Steve, Part of the reason we warn members in our site guidelines about posting copyrighted materials and things like that. I don't know if simply stating where you got it from helps or not. It's probably worse as they can search the net for the articles content and publisher. I also don't see how legally he can simply just slap a law suit with out first contacting you to remove the content. Don't know the law that good.... Honestly it doesn't matter, a $1,500+ lawsuit would shut the website down..... for good... There is no income to support that and I certainly will not go down with the ship if we get sued because of something a member stole and posted.... George and myself spent our personal money to purchase the site... The sponsors generate just enough $$ to maintain and run the site... we don't grow a profit on the site... PERIOD ! And I feel once the sponsors go away George and I will be maintaining and paying for the site completely out of pocket..... Thus why we urge people to support the sponsors in any way they can.... but you know how it goes..... Some times it feels like a slap in the face, don't know if people just don't care..... Don't know at all.. But thats why George and I get upset at all the fighting and bickering..... It hurts to see OUR forum Crapped on...... Glad you asked ??? Todd Z [/QUOTE]
