Copyrighted works

Does anyone here regularly "share" copyrighted material?

If so, this might be for you then:

Yeah! You gotta... [edit]
This is not the place to make such a statement.

<sarcasm>I think we should all thank the Ursula, the Censorship Nazi (tm), for violating our free speech rights (at least US citizens') by censoring *anything* that could possibly be regarded as inappropriate or offensive in the slightest. What would the posters and readers on this board ever do without you, Ursula? Thanks for all the good work! You make the world a better place for all of us.</sarcasm>

Glad you like it. Another satisfied customer.
btw - Your post would be much nicer if you new how to use your keyboard!

try <Alt> 0409

For those who like to waive around the "First Amendment":

"The First Amendment precludes government restraint of expression and it does not require individuals to turn over their homes, businesses or other property to those wishing to communicate about a particular topic."

I didn't want to bother to look up the code for the ™ symbol. And Alt+0409 doesn't work for me in Linux. The GNOME and KDE character map tools don't display that symbol either.

But you can use &#153; as well.

Thanks again to Ursula, the Censorship and Trademark Symbol Nazi™

I fear you do not get the point behind the need to edit your final comments in your post. Your right to freedom of expression will be curtailed anywhere that you choose to incite people to steal.
It is not necessary for any of us to ever explain why posts are moved, edited or deleted, but I wish to try to explain to you that the purposes of these Gnutella Forums do not include assisting people in the effort to infringe upon copyrighted material.
These editing actions are not part of something which is a particular 'hang-up' of mine or the other moderators.
They are the rules and the rules will be adhered to.

Hey, I don'k know what is it that ursula edited, but I believe she had a good reason. However, you did insult her, so if anybody's violating any rights, that's you. Those 'speech rights' finish where somebody else's rights start. Besides, do you know the juridic term 'apology of crime'??? I guess not.

You are a sweety, aren't you? You dear, you edited out the popular word for excrement all by yourself. See, you can be good.
Now, we must not make a habit of behaving this way around here by using offensive words or all of your play will become invisible.
I think we can say that the word nazi won't be making any further long appearances anywhere around here. Let's say that if the word appears in any future post the entire post will be deleted, not only the word. Fair enough rules for you?
Good.
