Title: OFFER TO (PARTLY) TAKE OVER LP RECEIVED

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."

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.

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.

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.

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/

How can I get professional reprints of, or permission to use, individual articles or videos?

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.

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.

And I believe that that policy issue is still being challenged, both in the courts, and at sites like Volokh Conspiracy.

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.

I see options 1,2 or 3 votes want elPee to stay alive, and that should be the way it goes IMO.

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!

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.

Call me cynical, but they may have already 'made an offer'. Time will tell who the sysadmin really is, and who he backs.

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.

Emphasis mine....

#317. To: TooConservative, sysadmin, All (#315)

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.

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.
