OOC: lol, I was just tellin them

(OOC:Your right... Your post is dead.

The thread on the other hand is not. And as such, we are now tying up the loose ends of your sudden departure, which left Hapes in an awkward position.

Thus, your MIAness is being construed as you being arrested for a number of crimes including dereliction of duty.

If post your arrest you wish to return to TRF, you will be freed, and all charges cleared thus enabling you to continue Akinyelles life.)

Be careful, man. I got fined once for useing someone elses work.... She does have a right to say weither or not you can use those threads she wrote, and you can get a hefty fine for useing them if she wants to be a @#%$ about it. I've included a link to an official/legally licensed law firm that offers copyright infringement rights, and if I'm correct, specificly literary.

I always cover my ass when it comes to Internet Copyright @#%$.

I just read over some stuff, and in this case, since you're useing it knowing that it's hers, you'd get the most harsh, and severe punishments.

OOC: Since her character(akinyelle dalla) left this Community I have to somehow make an exit for her character, plus I have to wrap up this takeover.

(OOC:Yeah, thanks for sharing, but seeing as you don't understand the situation, i can see where your coming from.)

I believe what she is trying to say is that you can't use her words for the take over.

Erm, I talked to Selesa Today.... She said... "Tell them I said they can use it. I don't even care anymore. Also, Tell Liz I said Hello."

Seeing as she was a member of the group when it was written and she wrote it for the group, her leaving doesn't mean you can't use it. She did it to help you; she's trying to spite you by saying you can't use it. But like I said, since it was done while she was with the group... anyway, it doesn't matter anymore.

Besides which, they aren't claiming it as theres and even submit that it is her's (i.e. no plagerism) and that they're not even copy/pasting it or anything like that. Their simply using something was written for them and was taken away in spite.

She already said they could use it, unless she came on and said they couldn't again.

Isstaal, did you read those links I put up? Did you see how I bolded the wording? That pertains to this. I'd hate to see you try and use someone's work, being as uneducated about copyright as you are. Read the material before declareing that "They Can Use It" because it was written here.

Ok, now that this is all cleared up, lets keep the OOC chatter to a minimum shall we?
