If I visit your blog (of war), like what I see, and decide to share it on TMP or similar sites, what is the minimum you would require from me in exchange:

A) don't use my stuff
B) state clearly who created the work, or piece of information
C) as B, and include the LINK
D) do what you want, I'm not bothered
E) something else

There is so much great stuff out there!

C is my first choice, but B would suffice.

Silent Pool29 Mar 2017 5:06 a.m. PST

I see …Cs. I even see 'em on the High Seas

What if you don't get that sort of recognition. Do you complain to the poster or seeth inwardly?

I always try to attribute when I repost someone's glorious work and was chuffed once when the original blogger/poster reported a significant increase in his visitor totals for the month.

It doesn't take much to treat people respectfully.

C.

B at minimum.

Not too hard, right? Common courtesy.

Stryderg29 Mar 2017 5:40 a.m. PST

It's the internet, you can't really "require" anything, unless you want to get lawyers involved. And for a blog, it's probably not worth the pound of flesh they charge.

But my answer is still C, just because it's the right thing to do.

It's the internet, you can't really "require" anything,

If someone posts my stuff with no attribution, I reserve the right to break into their apartment and drink all of their beer plus any snacks needed to aid said action.

C – But please if you do a whole bunch in one day consolidate them to a single post.

yarkshire gamer29 Mar 2017 7:29 a.m. PST

C but large wads of cash are equally acceptable.

B as a minimum
C out of respect.

I've had material from my blog published elsewhere, and erroneously captioned as something that the photo did not show.

Similarly, some material a friend and I posted of one of our gams, was posted without attribution.

C, this has happened to me twice i think, and both times they did a C.
And I was honoured by it.

C is nice, but I am not going to get too worked up over it.

I would say B or C…I try as much as possible to give credit when I'm referencing a google pic or another persons work…

A

I had someone take pictures from one of my games and posted it on his blog and took all the credit for it.

RogerC31 Mar 2017 9:12 a.m. PST

C ideally. But I wont get upset if you don't, well not much anyway. That said would be upset if I saw what happened to Rallynow happen to me.

Only share a portion of what is in the post so people still have a reason to visit the site and provide a link.

von Schwartz27 Aug 2020 6:21 p.m. PST

Just a nice Laurel, and hearty handshake.

Mad Guru29 Aug 2020 1:45 p.m. PST
