further....
It would appear that this unregisterd user is in agreement with me.
Because Dien has not indicated in his terms and conditions for the forum that anything posted on the forum becomes copyright of the forum, or the forum and the poster, the copyright for the posting remains with the poster.
Many forums leave it this way so that they cannot be litigated against for postings that appear on the board....however a better way is to actually put in terms and conditions that posters acknowledge and agree to that any posting or comments are theirs and their resposibility, and theirs alone, and are not the position of the forum/board owner, and that the board/forum owner does not endorse any posting made to the forum/board unless so indicated by the forum/board owner.
Also, a factor that also has to be acknowledged is fair useage which comes into play when looking at copyright infringement.
