I think the whole posting of entire articles has really gotten out of hand recently. I think our mods should delete those posts, if not because of copyright issues because they are cluttering the boards... I don't want to read every dead link people copy and paste in. In fact, if I want to read the article I'll click on the link people include.
Think this can be taken care of? |

I second your proposal INWB. I mean, it is one thing to pull some excerpted quotes to firm up your points but entire pages of verbatim texts is a bit extreme and I don't think anyone appreciates it.
Drat, and my plagiaristic publishing finger rests anxiously (twitching ever so slightly) to press the button which will force copious amounts of knowledge upon the ignorant masses, awaiting the outcome of this great debate-to-be, I can be the great teacher, lo my encyclopedia Brittanica and 1886 Oxford Collegiate dictionary awaits thee. Muuuaahhhaaaa uuuuuuhhaaaa  |

I have sent PM's to a couple of folks, sort of a "cease and desist" message. Existing posts have not been deleted pending a discussion with Benjamin. |

I think there should be a humor section, but I don't think enough people would post to make it worth the work to set up, lol. |

| No I mean it's own section instead of measily little thread. It's a nice idea but I don't think enough peeps will post there to justify Ben adding a new forum section. |
