Ok, that's it.. get back in the box...

if you use that application, you are stealing content.

what a little prick Mr Popup is. Nice job on the ticker. As long as he's not going to start selling ads on it, it's a good thing for GFY. Hell, he should make a little deal with Gorny on it so it could have sponsor ads/links on it.

if lensman actually gets mad about it, how about adding code in the program to scroll ad's across the bottom in text form?

If I had a high trafficked site. and someone built an application meant to steal my traffic...id be pissed and i think you would be too.

Its right here....

http://www.educause.edu/issues/dmca.html

Read the DMCA...im not making this up children.

Yup...and once again Lensman loses control over his brand

http://www.educause.edu/issues/dmca.html

Read the DMCA

It is theft. Blame your Government.

suck. me. off.

this is dmca act is U.S. Law only, yes?

Last time I checked Detroit was in the USA. Unless the Gibraltar Trade Center was suddenly moved to Windsor or something....

Geez, excuse me for being familiar with the law in a country I do business with....

Show me your ite.....Come on...Let me take some of your content.

put your money where your mouth is.

Don't you have some conspiracy over in Lower Slobovia to dig up?

You know whats funny.. this whole thread just gave me an idea for a project (that whoever wants it can take it) that would be a little borderline scandalous... though I think if the forum admins were smart they would embrace it, since, ultimately it would mean more impressions.


But someone should make a ticker program like this and have it stream headlines for ALL of the active forums, ie GFY, Oprano, PornIsBad.. I'm sure there are more that are pretty active.

Then of course, you could run your little button banner at the top (AOL AIM client style) & generate a little money off selling the ads or something.


:1orglaugh... so who wants to bet on how many of these forum streamers will pop up now?

He's not even got the DMCA right. Several sites, Free Republic being the most notorious, have won or settled lawsuits allowing them to reproduce content under 'fair use' provisions.

In the case of FR, all of their content comes from articles reproduced.. without the ads.. from the big 3 news sites.

this isn't about detoit...i'm just asking you that if i were in say Afghanistan...and i quoted you, would i be stealing content then?

Whatever........ im sure the kid who designed the app and lensman have lots of time to settle it in court.

When you start talking about webmasters using this app to save time (meaning save money) it becomes clear that this application is commercial in nature regardless if it is sold or not.

Ya, me too. I believe that violates paypal's copyrights. But i'll defer to mrpopup on that one.

yeah

same here

Doesn't the beav have any in house guys you could hit up?

hah :1orglaugh

Why do people ALWAYS have to find something to bitch about. :321GFY

It's like a roomfull of old ladies sometimes.

I'm starting to smell DVD here.

You're right here...

yeap and this the cool part of it,only if it worked :/

we need a new version

My Turn.....


gornyhuy

Email at michael at adult.com we need to talk.....

Guess what?

You're now on my list with MonkeyMan and LucLonely. My standards are very, very low. Think limbo.

Wake up call; this is coming from a software engineer: You don't seem to have any comprehension of software, web services, syndication, desktop clients, or the DMCA.

Its called respect for Intellectual Property. Sorry you can't comprehend THAT but it happens to be the foundation of this business.

I'll listen to a lawyer before I'll listen to a guy with a CS degree. Aren't they giving those away now?

gornyhuy if you need legal advises, i can bring you in contact with LucLonely

<sigh>

Just a guess but I bet the people that use this actually see MORE ads. I know I only check the first page on GFY. If I see topics scrolling I am interested in I am more likely to end up here. :2 cents:

It isn't illegal to build such software. It's illegal not to take it down if Adult.com decide they don't like it. Since I don't see Lensman complaining, I think you can probably calm down.

That has to be the dumbest thing I have seen all day.

:1orglaugh

If you build something that saves someone time therefore saving them money you can give it away and it's still commercial..


Bwahaahahaha Too Fucking Funny. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Mr.Popup, why dont you just sue him??? your the only one who gives a rats ass! Otherwise, quit bitching.

Don't worry, he shot his load here...he's off chasing windmills in other threads.

:1orglaugh

:helpme any updates?

Mike:
You've got mail.

wow..something from GFY actually worked..very cool





now I can get some real work done!

Thanks TDF!
:thumbsup

gorny why am i only getting a share the love man msg...and it won't update the posts? is there a mandatory donation before it unlocks or something? :helpme

Ok,

I have spoken with Lens and gornyhuy.

gornyhuy is cleared to move forward with this project if he wants.

I requested a couple of minor changes but other than that
it is fine.

You and Lensman are decent people. :thumbsup

MrPopup Na Na Na Na Na Naaaa. :321GFY

i will sponsor it if it beeps to everyone whenever i post

:thumbsup

Geesss,

I just looked at my post count... only 329......

I must be a newbie eh?

LMAO....

Dam... I must have a bad install.. It's still not working :1orglaugh

me either...i reinstalled twice...still same share the love post

So let's see. According to MrPopup, everytime I post here, it becomes content on GFY and is therefore the intellectual property of GFY. I don't remember being presented Terms and Conditions at signup saying that by posting here, my thoughts/opinions/questions will no longer be my intellectual property.

Also, he proceeded to libel Ludedude as a theif, and threaten to steal content off of many of our sites.

At the same time, by posting an excerpt of the DMCA from someone else's site, he was therefore stealing intellectual property from that site, who was in turn stealing intellectual property from the writers of the DMCA.

I'm confused now.

I'm not so sure about that bro. We did agree to Terms and Conditions. God knows what could have been in there. But I do believe that by posting here we do give Adult.com some, if not all, rights to our words.

THis thing rocks! :thumbsup

Damned Windows-only software.

Already working on it, but making damn sure the sites get the traffic, ad views, etc. they deserve, which is why it's taking a while to do. Have to do it right. :)
