Locked Threads on Lancashire Lookup Offers
« on: Monday 27 October 08 20:06 GMT (UK) »
Please could someone explain why nearly every thread on the Lancashire Lookup Offers board has been locked, surely we all didn't infringe the copyright laws  ??? ??? ???

Hi Simon

Its the same on most county boards, its so people start a new thread for the lookups that they want. If they didnt do that people would be posting lookups for different people on the same thread ;)

I don't quite understand  ???

You go to the Lancashire Lookup Offers board, see a message that meets your requirements and ask a question  ???

My PNE Player Career Info thread has been locked, that information isn't copyrighted  ???

Ricky is quite right - threads get somewhat muddled if you have some old requests on there, some new and we prefer it if people's offers are locked and a new thread started for each request ( on the Request Board, naturally).

It's nothing to do with copyright on this occasion.

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

That was not what the PM I recieved earlier said..........

Hi Duck
As per my previous PM, I'm afraid that I have had to remove your Lancs offer because of the complaints from CD suppliers.

You're welcome Simon.

I don't know about the PM earlier, so I can't speculate.  I don't think anything I have told you is inaccurate though.  PM me if you want to discuss further.

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Oh you've edited in a PM (naughty actually as PMs aren't supposed to be posted on the boards)  which must be from a Copyright Ed about offering information from a copyrighted source.

That's a different matter & you must talk to the C Eds about that.

I meant that the red bit wasn't there when I replied initially.

Never mind - it seems to be outwith my expertise!
