Ahh... not real easy to back out of that one. Hope you at least let the offending person know you didn't appreciate that and ask them to remove it.


No. Not the kind of person I want to talk to...

I'm not new to the internet, or forums. I was a mod on Fritchy back in the day. It is bad taste to re-post pics someone posted somewhere else on the same forum...
Wow, that was not quite what i was expecting when I found you there. Do you know all of them or just helping jump start modeling career's?

I'm not sure you can assume things about a person's character on a board like this based on your expectatons of behavior on the kind of board you gave as an example.

That site's sole purpose appears to be pictures, in which case I'd agree that stealing a photo is taboo, but in a general topic forum, snagging pics and meme's is fairly common unless they know it is a family photo and there something private that you have shared (even if the act of sharing makes it no longer private anywhere in the world anymore)

He's home and I got it out of him. GRNYSFT stands for Granny Shift. I think it's some kind of mechanic joke but I don't know.

From Google - Granny Shift
  1. It's to slowly shift between gears, and to not rev fully through the gears. Basically, to drive like an old woman.
He's being sarcastic, but it will be missed by schmoos like me!

On any board it is pretty lame to re-post what someone just posted. I understand that concept is not understood here... Even at ECF one wouldn't just re-post someone's pics...

I do that ALL THE TIME in my Camaro. It helps save gas for when I want to "play"

So, IMHO, it's a good thing.

:D

Having dug into your other board, I understand that the pictures you posted were likely original works, but I doubt that he thought that and he gave pretty clear info on where he got the picutre and used it as an example of they should try to get your attention to start posting in that thread.
In this particular instance, I think you may be overreacting.

i am not offended cause i don't get it. :p

The question would be....

Do you know how to drive a manual transmission car?

Many people don't, so that is actually the point of the picture....

It's hard to steal a car if you can't drive it!

;)

On a related note, I am of the opinion that knowing how to drive a manual transmission car should be a prerequisite for obtaining a license. But I am in the minority in that....

;)

My work here is done. :p
Feeling better yet?
Sort of. It went from my nose to my throat to my lungs and now it's in my stomach. Hopefully I'll crap it out tomorrow, whatever it is.

Let's think about this for a moment ... this is a public forum
If this is in reference to the posted pixes, a personal pix when posted to the net regardless
of where remains the author's possession and to re-post w/o permission is a violation of copyright law.
The author need not state © when pix or written work is posted, it is automatically assumed.
