Forum:Just curious: does tvtropes have a leg to stand on regarding "their" content?

The other half of the question is about being prepared. And on that, you can look around and see the amount of effort we put into this site every day. And the fact that we've been working on building this site for a 18 months now. We're not going away. And yes, I am the kind of person who would sink thousands of dollars of my own money into stupid litigation (even though I think we could get the EFF to help). Hope that answers your question.

 * Long story short: no leg, yes fight. The actual long story -- see my blog.  These issues involve a lot of arcana in copyright law, but I am almost certain that the claims of ownership, as they are currently stated, are in fact illegal.  For one, you usually don't enter into a contract without prior knowledge, lol.  IANAL, but the way that they handle copyright over there is so bad, that I could probably get summary judgement in our favor.


 * Ok, so the situation is pretty much what I expected. Good to know you've thought these issues through.  BTW, what's the correct way to make a response on this forum, with a timestamp and everything?
 * Add colons like I did here, and add  as an automatic signature. Vorticity (talk) 09:54, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Again, thanks. Any chance we might get a more standard forum in the future?  Topazan (talk) 11:06, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
