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.

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.

yeppers. it's pay to play, and they call you to verify that it was you that opened the account.

They have leverage. We don't. It'd just be empty words -- I think those that'd cite will cite without having to be told.

For natter, I really like the Removal of the President one....just because "Shave and a Haircut" would give me unending earworm. Quarter Life crisis is kinda cool too.
