Question:
Would it be all right to repost story hours from ENworld? I have them saved to my hard drive because I thought they were so much fun to read, and I think it might help kick-start the story hour forum.
Full credit to original authors, of course.
We think that you should have the original author's express consent, because it is their story. We feel it would be even better if you could convince those authors to come and repost their stories here.
A reasonable ruling, Eshu, though I don't know if they're active on the boards much any more.
Specifically I had in mind Piratecat's story hour and Sepulcrave II's story hour. If someone could be a love and get me their email addresses from ENworld, I'll ask them for permission.
I can't access ENworld from work, which is one of the reasons I want to repost them here. If ENworld is blocked for me, who knows how many other people can't get at it from work, and might end up here?
I guess I can understand if they withhold their permission, too, if they see therpgsite as a competitor with ENworld and want to remain loyal to their roots. I personally think all RPG sites should work together, and spread the good stuff around as much as possible, but what do I know?

Damn dirty hippy with your RPG free love. :p
Theres fantasy and then theres reality. :D
Just get their emails for me and I'll ask them myself. Maybe they'll agree.

You are responsible for your posts. If you post someone else's work it is a violation of copyright law unless you secure their permission. If they pursue any legal action I'll be sending them your way.
From now on when I use this color and bold you can be certain I'm not doing my pooka lies schtick and that I'm speaking clearly.
