Concerning Intellectual property

[angelic.zest]

Im not site admin nor do i think i could really do the job, but i really dont see the big deal in posting something and it becoming property of wherever you post it. ok you worked hard, you've slaved, sweat and dealt with brain farts, while writing your post.

But isnt that the whole idea of writing? posting where ppl can read it, discuss it and just Post it in general. i'm not choosing any sides but i dont see the big deal. i read the rules and i wouldnt post anything i felt that i couldnt deal with if it came back to bite me.
like i wouldnt post pictures online because ive snatched so many(thats just me, i loveeee viewing everyones photo but i couldnt do it) and its easy and i woudnt want anyone snatching mine (who would want to tho lol? but hey there are some who would like to lol)

maybe im getting off topic lol. i dont know. so please someone put me on the right track lol.. i wouldnt post anything i didnt feel comfy with being shared with the whole interent world :/

Angelic, dear one,

the idea is that the story is YOURS, and should not be held hostage (so to speak) by anyone. Should I turn a short story into a novel and wish to sell it through one of the on-line adult book distributors, that publisher would not wish big pieces of the story out there available somewhere for free, obviously; people would not buy it.

Formerly, such stories would be happily removed by the group owner, with comments on the forum celebrating said author's success. Since the buyout about 4 years ago, the policy is different. Many authors who used to contribute here... and damn good ones... will no longer do so. Sad, IMHO.
