I just donated $10 to the EFF, who are aiding the small mom & pops who are being persecuted. One of the lawsuit recipients has started to fight back, hopefully more will step up and stop this...

All good points, and thanks for letting us know. I think the main reason big chunks of text were being copied is because many workplaces block gaming sites, so those perusing the GL on the clock...
While I understand and agree with why Slickdeals is doing this, I think it's bullshit.

They're basically arguing that quoting the entire article goes beyond fair use. Quoting small sections, on the other hand, is fine.

That makes sense! But you never make sense! Something doesn't make sense... im kidding you might accidentally make sense sometimes here and there haha

There's a "charter" now? What is this, the League of Nations? Or the fcuking Avengers? BTW doesn't this joker look EXACTLY like the kind of douchebagg who would be proud of making money by...

I am glad you this rule is instituted. Less spamming of gamers lounge by people who want to repost anything they see on kotaku and the likes.

Makes sense to me...sites make money on hits...if you are taking away hits by posting the whole article here...then why should they even take the time to write articles??? Personally...I think we...

completely agree, but the guy still looks like a douche disappointing, because i can't see most gaming sites at work

Not sure what school you went to that taught you that quoting an entire article was considered kosher so long as you simply cited the source. You can't. It isn't an issue of plagiarism, it is an...

Not exactly since a ROM isn't publicly free & legal anywhere whereas some articles are.

:lmao: thats exactly what i was thinking. i must have entered the twilight zone because for the first time ever, Cutie's entire post was intelligent, made sense, and he had a good point. ...
I'll wait for his proper use of punctuation next time. Baby steps! :)

this is a funny thread to follow...thanks for the suttle humor! J

the problem is that there doesn't seem to be a list. another problem would be that he could go after you in the future. he may not currently be hired by GamingRagWeekly right now, but who knows...

Nope. Neither of those applies in any way :) As nice as that aspect is, it's not worth the risk of lawsuit :)
Post #31871041 added 08-17-2010 8:50 PM by ssjmichael in Gamer's Lounge
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this dipshit of a lawyer have to be hired by the media outlets in order to do his copyright trolling? If that's the case I believe most of the sources we get our...

The EFF just filed a counterclaim. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/sep/28/r-j-owner-faces-counterclaim-copyright-lawsuit-cam/
Per thelnel52's post in the Podium and Lounge Forums: Dear Gamer's Loungers, Thanks to copyright trolls like this guy, we're going to have to change the way that you guys share news...

Yeah this thing is stupid, the guy will most likely lose the majority of their lawsuits but they just want to scare smaller blog sites like this one into settlement. Most of these are user's posted...

How what pans out? He lost and has been ordered to pay the defendant's legal fees. They are going after his assets now. :lmao:
Post #44391560 added 11-04-2011 6:15 AM by KTrain in Gamer's Lounge
ya, ok. If it makes you feel better thinking that some idiot can't make something up and sue. :comfort: :)
Post #44366036 added 11-03-2011 9:50 AM by KTrain in Gamer's Lounge
Now that inernet trolls have been defeated in these lawsuits where judges ruled they were fair use since the poster wasn't profiting, maybe we can get rid of this ridiculous rule? The main troll...
Post #44367106 added 11-03-2011 10:22 AM by cgrady in Gamer's Lounge
Should probably wait a little to see how it pans out still; for now, the rule stands :)
Post #65825096 added 02-02-2014 6:12 PM by KTrain in Gamer's Lounge
:iagree: It's been long enough and the idiot suing people lost. There's nothing else to wait for.

This is the only thread we actually wanted gone, and it is still here... and it even has this "If you still feel it is necessary to make a new reply you may do so. I am aware that this Thread...

Not sure what the devs have to do with this thread :confused: have you been licking the poisoned frogs again? I told you to be careful when going to those outta the way lilypads dude.

Yeah, I generally don't feel like the devs here give much priority to requests from the users...

Yea, maybe you should read my statement again there.
Post #32499315 added 09-13-2010 4:59 PM by travathian in Gamer's Lounge
Wrong. An article made available for free on my website does not relinquish my rights as the author. Now if I post the article and provide a release of my rights to the article (think copyleft), then...

He doesn't read, u should know that by now
Post #32023219 added 08-24-2010 4:03 PM by dzap in Gamer's Lounge
I normally will quote paragraphs or entire articles..depending on the situation..but I always link the source and also put the site name in the quote= portion. I seriously can't believe this crap....
Post #31931701 added 08-20-2010 4:25 AM by Parafly in Gamer's Lounge
That sucks. It's very useful especially when we are unable to visit the site because of corporate IT policies at work or something.
Post #31875281 added 08-18-2010 12:23 AM by cgrady in Gamer's Lounge
This policy covers all sites. You can not pick and choose which ones to follow the rule for.
