Borrowing posts
Are we allowed to copy and paste parts of posts on 2+2 to other sites if we give credit to the author?

Re: Borrowing posts
Copyrights to all posts on the 2+2 website are owned by the authors of the posts, and not by 2+2 or ConJelCo. If you want to reproduce a 2+2 website post in a publication or on another web site, please get permission from the author of the post.
from here: http://www.twoplustwo.com/terms.html however, note that this is a request in the terms that you get permission from the author. i don't think it is a problem reproducing unless the author has copyrighted his own material. you do not need to credit 2+2 tho. |

All material is copyrighted the instant it is produced.

Re: Borrowing posts
If you give proper citation then you can cite pretty much anything. Just b/c something is copyrighted doesn't mean you can't quote it or cite it as a resource. Otherwise any article your read that quotes another article, encyclopedia, report, or other would be a violation of copyright. Generally you are only going to violate copyright if you try to take credit for something that someone else created and is copyrighted. Once a person has put a document in the public you can genearlly quote or cite from it as long as you give the author credit for the work.
That being said I would think you could quote what someone said on 2+2 as long as you give credit to the author. You can quote me on anything I say, unless it is wrong of couse and then I'll say you made that stuff up and sue you for defamation! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: Borrowing posts
Ok, enough with the PMs already. I know you want to put my material on your blogs, but I wrote it for 2+2 and it will stay here. <font color="white">Unless the price is right. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] </font>
