Hi Jetboy,

I am not sure what your reason is for starting a new discussion on this issue; for that question has already been answered quite well in another discussion. However, to defuse any situation this might create; please allow me to explain once again.

I did post a Peanuts comic strip a few days ago -- and I admit that until you complained to EH and she PMed me, I had not noticed that it had a copyright statement on the bottom. I captured that image from the internet quite a while ago -- when Charles Schultz did his last comic strip before retiring -- and I have it in my archives.

The post this past week was the first time it seemed appropriate -- so I used it. Once again, I goofed because I did not notice the copyright statement. However, you and I both know that the typical copyright means that no one can use that material for commercial purposes -- which was never my intention. And, it was published on the internet public domain -- which is where I captured it.

But, nevertheless, it was wrong for me to post it under the circumstances and under the guidelines of the TimesDaily.

EH sent me a PM after you complained to her. As soon as I saw the problem, I apologized to EH and all is well.

I have only one question. What purpose did you have in making the complaint? What was you motive? If I had written something which was insulting to you or to someone else -- or had defamed someone's race, culture, ethnicity, etc., -- then I could see your motive for sending a complaint. But, since this was just a comic strip copyright issue -- what was your real motive?

Regardless, I hold no hard feeling toward you for doing this. So, why don't we let it be like the old soldier -- and just fade away. Let's just put this behind us and be Friends.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill

you are a liar Bill. You keep saying that I reported you the EH@timesdaily. That is why I posted this thread, hoping EH will tell why it was removed.

Does your God allow you to lie so freely?

I agree it did kind of make you look like a fool, you trying to be a smartass with the book of snoopy while at the same time you were stealing protected material.

To Jetboy and others:

Most copyrighted material may be reproduced in brief quantity unless it is for monetary gain. The owner of the copyright must also be given credit. I did not see the original "offense," but I'm sure the next poster will make sure the artist's name is prominent in the posting.

Also, those artists not wishing their work to be reproduced may use a simple and inexpensive program to block any reproduction. I would venture to say 99% of those artists who feel that way use such software.

If Bill had used Snoopy to advertise for his new minimart or whatever, yes, that would have been stealing. I see absolutely no evidence that Bill has pulled a "Yogi" here.

Hi Jetboy,

It is possible that you are not the one who complained to EH. However, you are the only one who made an issue of the comic strip copyright. As a matter of fact, from what I have seen, you are the only one who even noticed it. I have had the comic strip in my image archive for a long time, and I posted the comic strip -- and I never noticed it. And EH stated in a PM that it was not her who noticed it. As she said, we are a self-policing Forum -- which means that she was not looking for a problem. However when it was pointed out to her by someone complaining -- she had to do something; so she deleted the post and sent me a PM.

When I got her initial PM about copyrighted material, I was confused and thought she was talking about the excerpt from the abortion web page I had put in my post. I asked why that was wrong; and this is when she mentioned the comic strip and implied that it was brought to her attention. Since you are the only person who seemed to notice the copyright faux pas -- I assumed it had to be you who complained.

If I was wrong in that assumption; then, I do apologize. If I am right in that assumption -- let's just put it behind us and go on with more meaningful dialogues.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill

jetboy, perhaps if you worded your response a little differently - instead of "You are a liar, Bill" you could say "you are mistaken, Bill" But then, that would not be as demeaning, would it? I admit that Bill can be a pain in the posterior portion of the human anatomy but even he does not deserve to be demeaned, attacked or abused....and that seems to be your mode of "operandi", jetboy....abuse. That is what got you kicked off last time. But some people never learn. It is sad to see a soul so tortured and miserable within themselves that they feel compelled to try and "hurt" others. Why don't you contact Riverbend? I hear they have some very good therapists there.
I said you were a liar when you made these statements.

"EH sent me a PM after you complained to her."

"and I admit that until you complained to EH and she PMed me,"


Prove me wrong Bill, how do you as fact that I did that?


Now Bill writes


"It is possible that you are not the one who complained to EH."


And I didn't, the reason I said you were lying.

From now on Bill, if you don't know something as fact, then don't state it as fact.

I don't regret one bit saying that you were lying, because you were!

Why do you not use your 'real' identity here? Roll Eyes

Anyway, maybe you hide your true feelings about things and sugarcoat your words when talking to people. I tell it like it is. If you feel Bill wasn't lying when he stated that I reported him ti the mods, then feel free to explain.

You should be made aware, I don't sugarcoat, I tell it like it is Big Grin You may not like what I have to say sometimes, but if I ever lie, or be dis-honest please tell me. I am a grown man, I can take the truth Eeker
I don't use my real name for the same reason you don't use yours, jetboy.

And I don't "sugarcoat" anything either. I do, however, try to respect the fact that human beings have personal rights (including the right to be wrong) and when I disagree with them, I try to stick to the "behavior" and not attack them personally. I don't call names or belittle. If you see me doing that, you have my permission to call me on it....and I WILL apologize and reword my statements because it is never my intention to do that. Not even with you. So, show me where I attacked you "personally" rather than your attitudes and behavior.

Are you saying that if someone tells a lie about me that I don't have any right to say they are lying?

I suppose that would depend on whether or not you are actually guilty of whatever you are being accused of. Most people respond more aggresively when they are actually guilty than they do if it truly is a false accusation. A less aggresive response might be "you are mistaken" or "that's just not true" or "no I did not"....but to respond with an attack like "you're a liar" just makes you look guilty.

Oh I see, antone that says someone else is a liar is automatically guilty themselves. Really a very stupid remark. Roll Eyes

While I don't think it should be an infringement unless monetary gain is involved, it can be. Disney once forced a grade school to paint over images of Mickey and friends. Walter Lanz then stepped in and had his workers paint Woody Woodpecker and related characters on the walls of all the classrooms. That was a class act, every pun intended.

Oh we are here alright...waiting for you to get booted again. In the meantime, perhaps TT and mean just prefer to ignore the ignorance you post. But me? Hey! I don't mind telling you how ignorant you sound when you take things and twist them around to try and start an argument. And I don't mind telling you how that behavior reflects on your character. The things you write show a severe lack of comprehension of what you read and your responses are hostil and aggressive ... usually insulting .... and downright pitiful.

See? No sugar coating here. And I addressed your behavior, did not call you names, and was not abusive.
