Yea, I'm really lost on this. Things are copied and pasted ALL THE TIME on this site. Like, all the time. Quotes etc from other sites onto this site. The NPR forum for sure!

Its because the language that was copied and pasted form the blog was offensive and hurtful to mike. Mr Wilson put the post back up. Thanks Mr. Wilson. Its post 395 if anyone wants to read it.

Mr Wilson has also made it clear you can't be a drama queen after he calls you out for breaking a rule.

I think the point is... if you read the rules, it doesn't say anything about copy/paste. So if it is a rule, I for one have no idea where it's posted and would love to read more about it.

oh ok. Well, yes, there is a rule about language and that is understood. I was confused.
 
Yes.

The link was ok. Her cut and paste wasn't.

Is this really that hard for all to understand?

No it is not and thank you.

The play is == create a blog, go off, post a polite response here with a reference to the blog (with link).

No harm, no foul... and well within the rules. :idea2:

Whoa! I just went into vertigo. You went from almost being banned to getting your post reinstated. How'd you do that???

I believe that the laws around copyright protection generally require that you acknowledge the source of the information so that you're not engaging in outright stealing or plagiarism.

In post #395, dorabelle did identify the source of where she copied her information from: "Taken form OMGWTF blog about TAR 31"
 
Man, people are working my nerves.

Cutting and pasting is not the problem.
Never was. Drop it.

The problem was the language and verbal abuse. This is, was and always will be against or rules.

this is why it was removed...and there is a glitch that allowed it back. It is being removed again.
 
That had to be one of the funniest pool-related articles I have EVER read!

I was actually laughing out loud. Brilliant stuff, filled with nuggets like this one:

"Dinner was good, when Mr. Dechaine was chewing."
 
HAHA my post gets removed because the parts of the blog that I copy/pasted contained too much foul language and verbal abuse towards a fellow azb member, but the source of it is allowed to stay.
 
Well then, it's a good thing Obama, Pelosi, McConnell, or Boehner don't post here, or play pool. We wouldn't have anything to talk about in NPR.

So you can't call names, or post (copy & paste) anyone else calling names if the names represent somebody that posts here ??? If my assumption is correct, I suppose we better check the User list before we all get banned.

Wait this is just in, I found out that Obama has been posting here all along under the name of kenyanmarxistrevolutionarythathatesamerica. So I fully expect from hence forth that anyone that calls the empty suit anything other than his Kenyan born name will be sent on an extended vaca from AZ forums.:grin:

On a serious note, however, it does seem pretty hard to determine why some comments (posts and posters) are allowed and others aren't. I guess we all need to brush up on our redacting skills.

In NPR, it really helps if your personal political opinion is aligned to the personal political opinion of the law.

That prejudice permeates.

It really bothers you THIS much???

I don't get that rule. Haven't I done that very thing about 25,000 times?

This might be the best place to re-explain it?

Cheffjeff, Mr Wilson is a busy guy so ill help him out by explaining it. Ok so there is a blog that OMGWTF wrote that contains foul language, verbal abuse, wanting to physically hit people, and insults toward a fellow AZB member. I copied and pasted those parts of her blog and my post was deleted because it contained the above offensiveness but her blog is still on here for everyone to cheer on. The things you copied and pasted didn't contain verbal abuse and insults to a fellow AZB member. Its not the act of copy and pasting, it was the content that was not allowed.

I was thinking about it this morning and if it was a guy who wrote the blog about a female, wanting to punch her in the face and laughing at her physical features, itd be different. People think its ok for women to be abusive to men. Its a bad double standard.

There is a BIG difference in Wanting to hit someone and Hitting someone.
