Torry,
</p>
<p>
I'm not saying you were involved. If you were, I'd have a private
discussion about it with you.
</p>
<p>
Citation does NOT matter when someone co-ops (nice way of saying
stealing) someone else's intellectual property. Copyright laws are
quite clear and the creator of the content owns the rights unless they
have been specifically assigned to someone else.
</p>
<p>
In the case of preserving my content, it's something I would certainly
consider on a case by case basis. Whatever reasons I may have for
sharing or not sharing content are mine alone, and yes, subject to
whim. My whim. I'll be honest, if I found my IP presented on someone's
site that didn't ask me first, they likely would receive a letter from
a lawyer, and since that costs money, I'd be demanding money. Hard
core? Perhaps. But publishing on the web does NOT constitute public
domain.

<span>I still don't know what NICO took from either the forums or
se-r.net without at least citing it.  Not saying it didn't happen, I
just wasn't involved with it or know what content it was that either
of you are referring to.  As far as I know, we always leave the
contributing author listed on the article so it's no secret who
wrote it.  As far as citing SE-R.net specifically, maybe it's just
me, but I think it would be pointless if the site goes away to
reference it.  Keeping the author on there on the other hand is
completely reasonable and respectful.</span>

And Geo, as far as you having no relationship with NICO, I
understand your point.  However, I'm just trying to make the
valuable information contributed by you (as well as many others)
live on in a site that is still very active.  I know you wrote it
*for* se-r.net, but the site is essentially dead, so why not share
the info somewhere that it will actually get read?  Just food for
thought.
