It seems to me also a lot of work for nothing.

As a user, would you seriously go into each of those multitudes of POST DELETED threads and read some random PDF file hoping it contains some relevant info?

I don't see a way of cataloging the saved posts in a legible format that would make it worthwhile to read them.
Post upon post upon post in a pdf does not make good reading.

It is messy but I thought it was important to append the PDF's to the end of the original threads first. I am considering creating a "master list" later on that will be clearly labeled and all in one thread. It's nowhere close to the original threads but it's the best I can do with what I am working with.

Since they're your threads, can't you edit the subject line?

but for the time being, let me ask you this: Who owns information, once it is published on the Internet, the poster or the world?

Jay

Copyright - the poster owns her material, always.

Now if you mean in a practical sense, that's what we're dealing with right here...

I know you feel very strongly about this and you have posted on this topic before. I don't think anyone is saying that Aric doesn't own the copyright to his work--clearly he does. However, it is a mistake to interpret copyright protection as being absolute--because it simply isn't. The Fair Use doctrine and other exceptions apply.

Another measure might be "reasonable expectation." Only an idiot would post something on the web and assume he/she can maintain absolute control over that content. Whether this is right or wrong is, in my opinion, a separate issue. I should be able to leave my car in my driveway (or anywhere for that matter) with the keys in the ignition and nobody should steal it--it's my car and nobody else has any right to it. But, I don't do that because there is a reasonable expectation that doing so will result in my car being stolen.

The definition of malice is something that is done with intent to harm.

He has certainly deprived Adatesman control over his own content. This person is a site user, not management. This is equivalent to me saying you can't drive away in your car, because its parked in a public parking lot.

DMT

I might also add that his block quoting of this thread is in direct violation of the license under which I submitted the material. Thanks to SittingDuck for the suggestion to license it; I never thought it ever be an issue that could possibly come up.

You either haven't read that license or you don't understand it. The license explicitly states that have entirely relinquished copyright of the material in perpetuity, and that anyone can do anything with it in whole or in part.

Edit: In another post Aric claims that it was a different license. However, he deleted the post containing the license, so there is no obvious way to verify his claim.

As I told Curt, Jay, I don't need your opinion on whether my understanding of the license is correct. It is, and you can take a hike since it doesn't seem to matter to you whether I'm right or wrong; only that you get a chance to say I'm wrong.

You know, there's a certain irony in you asking another user here to "take a hike" after you have said (multiple times) that you are leaving. How's that coming along, anyway? Did you have to give a 30 day notice?

Speaking only for myself, I sent you $50 to buy some Aliens for testing. This was based on your request for help on this site. I would like to see those results remain. You are welcome to remove the work you did and send me a $50 bill as well.

On the other hand though. Maybe the lab will become a better place.

This might be the dawn of the Stephen Hawking of rockclimbing to show his face.
