• 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.

Just a side note to what Zach just posted:

By far, the most common complaint recieved on the various boards I have run is that "My password isn't working!!!!"

Typically, the solution to this situation forms around one of two main user errors:

<ol>[*]Typing a Capital O instead of a zero (0). It's easy to confuse these two, which is why I recommend that when you get your password, you copy and paste it into the required box until you change it.</li>
[*]Not copying the password exactly as it is shown. The UBB software is case sensitive when it comes to names and passwords. So when it runs it's checks, Spark is not the same as spark or SPARK. So, make sure that you type in your name and password exactly as it appears.

Like I said, by far these are the two most common problems I encounter, so good luck, and remember: attention to detail.

copy and past was the only way I could get my password to work. "Control C" copies and "Control V" pastes it using WIN95... I tried typing it in using both ways...oO0 etc... none worked... I still don't know what was going on with it.

Members should note: When you change you E-mail address - your automatically given a new password emailed to the address you entered. Hopefully you didn't have a Type-O there or your out of luck...
