• 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.

Question about THR

I know several Mods are also Mods on THR; the last two days I am getting a "Host Error" message and not able to connect. Can anyone who is also a member there confirm it is not just me?
Thanks

It's not just you. There was a major outage yesterday, and Derek is working to get it back to proper working order. Outages may be spotty for awhile.

I'm guessing the THR server fried out and he had to load everything onto another server. I see the NTT forum is now gone and if you type in the address it re-routes you to THR.

Your guesses are pretty much spot on. NTT should start working again once the server issue is fixed since they are both on the same server.

Users may be getting a lot of "525 SSL handshake failed" errors. Retry in a few minutes and they often clear up.

Not really. It's been up more than down all day. It just depends on when you attempt to visit and how lucky you are today. ;)
