Off-Route is one thing, but the other forums - there might be stuff & info the member owns.
With the right to delete or not. Copyright, to put it simple.
If this goes through, I want all my posts deleted first.
Your threat is disgusting. It's childish manipulative behavior.
Both the ignorance of your first post and the faulty logic of the second is evident. Nothing new under the sun though.
You're claiming that news would not be copyrighted...
...and it's not a threat.
To be a threat it would mean that it would be a loss if they disappeared. It's not.
It's a consequence. If A, so B.
If the contractual base which we now participate under on this forum changes in a way that I strongly disagree with, I choose the only remaining option.
The consequence of your reasoning becomes that you advocate that members have no right to exercise their free will. Once a member, always a member, however the rules change.
(Not saying one cannot being a member without participating in the forums.)
