I have received the following email from tpaine, who has offered to take over financial responsibility for LP but is not interested in moderating the site. Be aware that moderation implies control over content and a moderator may also be the target of litigation. (Lawyers tend to latch onto anyone even remotely involved in a situation to see what will stick.) Feel free to discuss this and at the end we would need to take a vote of active posters in good standing. If the site ownership is turned over to tpaine I would end my moderation of the site and cancel the plans to move it to my own server. Message follows: "At this time I would like to make a formal offer to pay the bill for hosting and domain registration, and to assume the liability for lawsuits, -- As 'the owner'. --- However, I have no interest in moderating the site and would hope that someone who could get the approval of at least 75% of the currently active members would take on that job. I would also hope that the site could retain the services of someone like Neil McIver to deal with tech issues. Please post this on the site, seeing that you refuse to allow me to post comments."
Poster Comment: I'll bet this will wipe that smug look off Gatlins face....LOL

#102. To: tpaine (#101)
So sysadmin's information and the "Gatlin group bull" is incorrect, but to the best of your knowledge (a knowledge that has not been refreshed for quite some time) they are wrong. Got it. You do sound like the know it all wind bag many posters described you as being.
And you sound like one of the wind bag gatlin groupies.. Get lost.
We can add paranoia to the list.
Take your pick either one is appropriate with incest the way it is nowadays. Didn't mean to forget to mention SOD so I'll now make up for that omission. “Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rapidly promoted by mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.”
Thanks. I assume that is a fair representation LOL! It will be interesting to see how LP ends up, with Gatlin, Palmjob, SOD, and the rest of the klan gone. Although, I suspect they will come back under new names. Should be Moe, Larry, Curley, lol.
It appears that tpaine's attempt to keep elPee alive won't fly. I salute his willingness to make his stand, even though he's been silenced over there. RIP elPee...
I believe all content on WAPO falls under the WAPO policy. That now includes the Volokh Conspiracy blog content. The Fair Use exception generally does not include full articles. See the FR litigation which resulted in a $1M judgment in favor of the LA Times and Washington Post. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ask-the-post/reprints-and-permissions/ Go to http://www.washingtonpostreprints.com/ and complete the relevant forms. You may also e-mail wppermissions@parsintl.com or call 212.221.9595, ext. 210. Please include details about the content you are requesting (headline or url, date of publication) and how you intend to use that content, as well as your contact information. You generally do not need permission to post a link to content on washingtonpost.com or to embed videos using Post-provided embed codes.
It appears that tpaine's attempt to keep elPee alive won't fly. I salute his willingness to make his stand, even though he's been silenced over there Yep, it's all over but the shouting. -- I thought moderation by consent was worth a try, and am surprised how many supported that concept and voted for me. It's nice to know, and I appreciate it. Probably, my silencing had a big influence on my support. Sort of a Catch 22 effect.
Whats up? Is the voting over, and tallied?
They will wait one week for straggler posters to vote. I see options 1,2 or 3 votes want elPee to stay alive, and that should be the way it goes IMO.
See my post #71... It's all over, from my POV.
I read a court ruling a while back. They said if you are not for profit you can post the entire article. I don't remember how high of a court ruled that.
Thanks for the reply. I will wait until it is official. I have to say that I am rather surprised that after your initial offer that Gatlin / Palmjob / SOD and the rest of the klan did not make an offer. Really surprised. Anyway, I still hope you get it!
I read a court ruling a while back. They said if you are not for profit you can post the entire article. I don't remember how high of a court ruled that. --- A K A Stone That's probably the court opinion I read too.. As I said, this issue is far from settled, and IMO, the sysadmin at LP just used it as an excuse to ban me.
Just for my own memory's sake, didn't you post at FR way back when? I joined that place in Oct 1998 or close to that date.
Call me cynical, but they may have already 'made an offer'. Time will tell who the sysadmin really is, and who he backs.
I joined that place in Oct 1998 or close to that date. I think I joined in Dec '98, -- or was it 97? Senility may be setting in.
I did a quick search showing you were a FR member since Jan 20, 1998. www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1266734/posts If you mouse-over your screen name you'll see it.
I think I joined in Dec '98, -- or was it 97? Senility may be setting in. That's right, I got a webtv box for my birthday in Dec 97, lurked for awhile, then joined JR in his fight against the newspapers over posting articles in full. Here I am, still fighting that same good fight.
He addresses you as 'f**khead' and insults you on other websites. That's incorrect. Get it right, or STFU! It was not tpaine who said that. Booshbot666 posted on 2015-01-11 SOD is lying his azz off, slandering you.
Yeah, I called sysadmin a f**khead. I was singing praise for him earlier. Thanks for clarifying my potty mouth. That stupid old drunk... Think I should ask sysadmin to let me back in to elPee? My timing is impeccable.
#275. To: sysadmin (#272) People calling you names and taunting you for your work here is outrageous. You deserve respect and fair treatment. Many people here and who were here before being banned have no regard for rules, responsibility, or decency when addressing decent posters. It's appalling. SOD posted on 2015-01-11 19:57:29 ET
You sure know how to sweet talk 'em! Yes, it's the perfect moment to request reinstatement. /s Murron gave SOD&sysy hell too.
It seems tpaine's windbaggery got the best of him. What did he think would happen? His LP enemies would remain silent? What a brawl over there. Great entertainment.
I think he has the most votes thus far...from my calibrated-eyeball reading mind. Pericles/Destro/Godwinson is making green cashola his selling point. He must be a Pubbie.
sysadmin already told Pericles he isn't buying anything. Just running it and paying operating costs. Pericles is from another country (I think) and isn't quite grasping the nuance.
These folks like domer fear for their privacy in an elPee transfer. Haven't they heard of Edward Snowden? There is no privacy you meatheads! LOL
The funny part is they love NSA spying, drone bombing, police state big brother, and roadside proctology exams, but they're worried about a Christian Democrat, Destro getting their email address.
I think gomer the homer meant to use the word niggardly... What an idiot! Yes, it is quite entertaining.
You posted: --- Fred never posted that line, although you italicized it, as if he did. Most have (except for sod), - by scuttling away, whining about personal info being exposed. Weird reaction, seeing that no such info will be... We agree.
I find it bizarre than tooC would recommend that marguerite twat. She's nothing but a propagandist.
. Did you notice that Aaron showed up out of nowhere? He's hateful too.
Well, he makes me laugh.
. I liked sven golly's comment too, but i always liked a shit disturber
. Now 2kon is wondering whether tpaine's offer was serious. He's got to be kidding...a drama queen no doubt.
#317. To: TooConservative, sysadmin, All (#315) What I don't understand is why if tpaine dosen't get 75% of the vote the next highest vote getter will be declared the winner. Perhaps I did not read the "rules" of this vote correctly. It was my undrestanding that the winner had to have reached at least 75% of the vote. If that is not the case it is entirely possible that tpaine gets 74% of the vote and the next highest vote getter, the declared winner, only received less than 10% of the vote. That doesn't seem to be rational. domer posted on 2015-01-11 22:36:04 ET
It's Nancy Pelosi election rules.... You've got to vote for it, to see what's in it. The election rules were unclear. Folks might have voted differently, if they understood how the results were going to be tallied.
That fuckhead put his name on the ballot. Where did that come from? Edit: Oops, there I go again...
The best solution is probably for everyone to just come over here.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name (John 1:12)

I have been posting full articles from the Volokh Conspiracy site for years because they had a policy of fair use for the purposes of discussion. They continued that policy when they moved to the Washbag, to the best of my knowledge.
How can I get professional reprints of, or permission to use, individual articles or videos?

I believe all content on WAPO falls under the WAPO policy. That now includes the Volokh Conspiracy blog content.
And I believe that that policy issue is still being challenged, both in the courts, and at sites like Volokh Conspiracy. The Fair Use exception generally does not include full articles. See the FR litigation which resulted in a $1M judgment in favor of the LA Times and Washington Post.
The FR judgement was in part based upon the fact that FR is a commercial activity. JR was profiting from his policy. LP is not.

Emphasis mine....
OTOH, tpaine set a 75% approval for both becoming owner and for his moderator so, given how hard it is to get 50% of LP to agree that the sun rises in the east or any other topic, you have to wonder if his offer is serious.
