Sushi has just done what I was going to suggest.
I'm not sure that we would ever be able to herd the cats on this forum into a single agreed position. None of seem to disagree with the idea that folks who want to protect their content, should be able to do so but we don't seem to be convinced that this is best achieved by having a site policy.
So is it not better to do as Sushi North has just done - to include in your footer the terms and conditions by which you agree that your contribution can be reproduced?

So get on with it. Put a proposal forward, show an example, and await the verdict. We'll do the old Democratic thing. It usually works very well.jdaw1 wrote:Just like a moving avatar: a distraction from the thread of conversation.
