A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

tommyrot's makes me laugh.

Megan's my new best friend.

I'm with Brenda. Is there no love for "25 letters and a redneck"?

This is good too.

I thought you'd like that, Hec.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

Oddly, I have no love for that. And I'll also have no love for anyone that saddles me with a 10,000 post long earworm.

You're just a loveless woman today.

I actually have no preference, for a change.

Actually, that's not true. I like tommyrot's idea.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Do we have any language on this site that says that anything posted is the property of the person who posted it and if you quote me you damn well better cite me?

That sort of thing?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, we don't. Nothing more than

Individual posters are responsible for the content of their posts.

Do most sites say more?

The Well is explicit in not repeating posts outside of the Well without the user's consent. I think it's not really an enforceable thing, (Whedonesque) but that it's about publishing other's words.

Do you have to log into the Well to read their posts?

I don't know how much exiting copyright law applies to Internet sites, but in terms of academic do's and don'ts, we teach our students that if they quote anything they sure as hell better cite it. If they can't cite a full name of the author (such as on a site like this one), they must cite the poster's nickname and the full website address as well as date of post and date of download. They wouldn't need to seek permission, however--they just need to give credit.

I get the feeling from this and from your post in Natter that this has become an issue?

ETA: Never mind. None of my business.
