Your fine...

Just to be fair, I don't know how much the mods get too much in a tizzy about posted items around here. I'm pretty sure almost EVERY single member here at some point has posted something that we didn't own or have "exclusive rights" to, when we've posted an article from another publication, picture from another book, map from someone else's paper, etc. To my knowledge, as long as the source is given and, in particular, the individual/group posting the item isn't doing so for profit (this is where the PERMISSION part comes into play of course), nobody need worry themselves too much in the way of lawsuits. The mods here on Tnet seem to be more concerned with posts of a threatening, insulting, or preaching nature (and, sometimes, for good reason!).

Either way, back to the TREASURE!!
Who's got a story we haven't heard yet?? Oro? Don Jose? Gollum? Where's Lilorphanannie been lately?

Thank you in advance!
All the best-
-Justin

Will you appear in court Justin for a copyright infringement case? I don't know what to post here any more and have no intention of donating full publishing rights for every thing posted. I would suggest to read that part again. It is pretty clear, Treasurenet is getting all publishing rights for everything posted. If that is fine with you, great. It is not fine with me.

Hi Oro, I don't rally know but according to the information that I have read you acquire opyrights as soon as you finish the article, formerly you had to show a copyright mark, it s stil recomended ©

( Up until twenty years ago, the symbol © did have a legal meaning. People are still accustomed to seeing it, but since 1989, copyright is automatic and no symbols are required legally. See also wikipedia info below

Senor Don Jose Amigo,

Would that be even more good reason to go on ahead an' 'git er done',
than all of your friends gentle nagging , and sincere encouragement?

I too, am concerned about my small snippets.
So thus; my W.C. Fields signoff, has changed.

cwp's video erased everything for me. What is Tayopa all about, and who is this Don Jose?

My apologies, Homar....if people had warning labels, mine would say...

" Never leave unattended when lit "



Please do continue, El Jefe....

I believe the main purpose of the rule is to keep members from demanding we delete all their posts when they get mad and want to leave. Imagine trying to delete 5000 posts as well as deleting the posts puts holes in threads the posts were in....

Sounds to me like there may be a problem with the intent of the rules and the letter of the rules. The intent may be to not have to delete the posts, but the letter of the rules says something completely different.....Not a problem unless someone decides to enforce the exact letter of the rules.

This is the very reason I deleted all my treasure hunting stories on here last year. I intend to incorporate most, if not all, in my book, if I ever finish it. Good Luck. rockhound

Señor Don Jose,

I have seen that circled c brand on the back side of a bull, and have seen his material posted here before.....hummmm, hope I don't get chased by the toro. Ole!

[Crosse De Sign]

...Yes I deleted most of my Treasure Stories also,
But then again, unless something is changed within
the Main Computer Frame memory, it is still in there...

So I just keep that in mind, if I decide to tell a story,
I don't tell everything... Its like the songwriting business,
there are a lot of people that make their living with it. Sigh...

The best you can do in that case, is to get your due cut,
and royalties, which can be pretty good, if a song does well...
15% change in a song, and someone can steal it from you, and sure,
it certainly has been done. Lots of people around that business, big money...

I need to put a sign on my head that says ,

SHAKE WELL BEFORE USING.

And while I'm at it, I should paste my report card from kindergarten, to the top of my guitar, that has a note saying,

DOES NOT PLAY WELL WITH OTHERS.

Very good humor Amigo,

I should have a sign, but can't decide which one would fit best...

On a serious note; the wording of that rule should be changed.
It opposes the very fabric of the forum, and will ultimately press the
SELF DESTRUCT BUTTON
Where by; we will ultimately stop sharing the very truth that we have come together, to share.

Oro my man, I can't tell if you were upset at me with what you wrote in your post above but I truly hope I didn't offend or insult you with anything I said. It wasn't actually directed at anybody in particular and certainly WASN'T meant to upset anyone, especially a guy who I would now consider a friend!! It was more just a random thought that I threw out there, rather than an intentional response to contradict anyone's previous statements. My deepest apologies if it bothered you in the slightest.

Truth be told, if I'd have thought about it more clearly (and not been posting on the Internet when I should've been sleeping in bed!), I should've realized the absolute frustration, if not downright resentment, that one could feel when it comes to the rules regarding things like copyright infringement here on Tnet.

Again, my sincerest apologies Roy if I somehow said anything that was upsetting. Absolutely NOT my intentions!

All the best-
Justin

NO buddy I am not and was not upset with you personally at all. Perhaps I should have phrased that differently. I meant to point out that quite a few members here are in fact working on writing books, and have been sharing their own stories freely, perhaps not understanding that the corporation is getting full publishing rights. I would not want to be hauled into court for having encouraged someone to post something that then led to a copyright infringement case.

At the other end of the scale I do understand why we see this:

Copyright © 2016 vBulletin Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved

at the bottom of each page, the corporation has to protect itself from lawsuits over copyright infringement. It is practically a certainty that someone would raise a fuss with them at some point, probably has already, when they get mad over an argument online and then can't remove all their posts or something like that, so then want to sue Treasurenet for publishing their posts "without permission".

However this situation is something that any one writing a book needs to be fully aware of. Treasurenet is claiming full publishing rights for everything you post. They can put it in a book and sell it, without your permission, because by posting it you are granting them full publishing rights.

Bottom line - to everyone, if you do not wish to grant full publishing rights to Treasurenet (vBulletin Solutions, Inc.) then don't post it. Legally you should not remove your posts later either, because you already granted full publishing rights when you posted it.

My apologies Justin for the impression you got from that post, I should have re-read it and re-written it before I posted it. I intended to highlight the risks involved to encourage others to post, not that I was upset at you.

So to everyone just think before you post. I have no issue with anyone wishing to share a story or what ever, however be aware that you are granting all publishing rights when you do.

aside from pubishing rights, last night was a nostalgic one. I woke up about 2 am and found myself back in WW II, I was back on that transport in 42 heading to an unknown destination -- which later turnd out to be Guadalcanal The Japanese had been winning hands down everywhere.

I had just turned 18 and with the usual thoughts of glory (?) . I still hadn't figured out the difference between boys and girls fully yet, oher than they should be put on a pedestile, sigh.. still consider CWDame in that catagory, I thank Emily Post for that impression. I was being groomed and had to take the full course.

Any way the ship was headed into the waves and of course was bobbing up and down, the men covered the decks everywhere except for a smalll area reserved for the Ships orchestra which were playing "harbor lights" and "I'm in the mood for Love" which since have become my mile stone of memories.
