Um so we can talk about anything we learned but does it have to be computer related because it seems to be in the technology and internet forums space. Or can it be like the fact that I learned yesterday that the United States is one of very few Capitolistic countries and stuff like that?

QUOTE(Tyssen @ Jul 3 2005, 10:31 PM) You want to unlearn that one - it's simply not true. I think I might have had a post removed. The topic was about defining courtroom tv. I thought I had followed all the guidelines, but maybe I missed something? It was a bit long and researched, but I thought it would be of interest to everyone. So many peole think that stuff is real. Anyway, I respect your rules and the decision of the moderator that pulled it, but I would like an explanation so that I don't accidently waste my time writing another detailed post that gets deleted again. I hope it wasn't considered as the dreaded SPAM.  Thanks for your help! |

areawe,
I decided to move that to General Talk section. As a moderator pointed out, you copied the majority of your information from some place else. If you understood the drama set and the complicated written script that was involved in making a Courtroom TV, why didn't you just write what you have learned in your own words instead of copying and pasting? When a majority of your post (I consider 51% to be majority) consists of quotes, it may be considered as spam. |

I did copy the words from somewhere else, but please don't jump to conclusions. It was completely written by myself and not stolen from somewhere... I would never do that. I wrote this in Microsoft Word because it's much easier for me to see the words, check for spelling, punctuation, etc when writing a long post - my grammar and spelling seem to go down hill when I get outside of word processors!  Thanks for your help!

Areawe, please note that even if you've written it, and took it off someone else on your site/computer or whatever! It MUST be in quotes. I didn't move the topic I just put the thing in quotes. I'm sorry if you did write it yourself but under your post it says "Source", meaning you didn't write it.
