That's nice, but it's not what you've written in the TOS:
So I can steal all of Flax's album scans, steal all of "Stephane's information", host all of the bootlegs downloaded from Drifter's site and go start a website with a less tacky name & design while passing off all the work as my own and because they are "anonymous", you find no flaw or indecency in that?
I didn't say anyone has to do anything, I think in general people should be credited fairly. What in that part of the TOS suggests otherwise?
The problem with written communication is that tone doesn't really come through. So either I'm missing your sarcasm or you're missing that things posted by the handle !Viva Hate! are still posted anonymously.
You can credit the source '!Viva Hate! at morrissey-solo.com', that's what I would do if I took something someone had written.
I definitely fail to accept your assertion that !Viva Hate! is nothing but a faceless username.
And yet, that's what handles are. They give you the ability to create a persona unique to your actions at any given site. That persona can reflect anything you like it to in one place and something completely different in another. However, it is still anonymous. True, we're in the middle here, not at either end. These aren't posts by "Anonymous" but we're not on Facebook with our real names either. What folks seem to fail to realize with handles (rank generalization I know, but grant me a bit of leeway) is that behind each of those anonymous handles is a real person. I find that real and important and would enjoy web interactions more if others did as well. I also won't be holding my breath waiting for change.
I definitely don't use my real name on Facebook...
Don't flatter yourself too much. Each description was put together with 10-20 different sources: reviews posted on websites such as moz-solo, contributions sent to me by people who attended, audio bootlegs, youtube footage, etc. I spent 2-4 hours on each description to patch it all up together. Significant contributors were credited.
You cannot steal information that has been made public. I never got offended to see my descriptions copy-pasted all over the internet.
It's people like you who turned me off the world of Morrissey. I have to say my life has only been better since I started spending less time hanging around these parts.
Stephane
does anyone else get the impression that Stephane and the mods are a bunch of condescending, pompous asses?
Like "Oh hey, I maintained a Smiths/Morrissey site since 1996, you aint got shit on me!"
Can't Stephane just dump the whole site into a .txt file and let us sort through it? It's like all that knowledge has just gone down the drain.
I'm absolutely heartbroken that PJLM is gone. To me it's like the Library of Alexandria burning down.
Soon.
It would be great if someone was that keen ...
