Just to confirm, are you reporting the movie images?

Thanks,

yes, as you told in other message

Is it wrong?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

This is a very weird case. It's almost meta. It looks like he's making a movie review website, and taking screenshots of his movie reviews. There are different allowances (I believe) for using images on movie review sites, but this is simply an image of a movie review site and does not contain actually movie criticism. Still ...

This may be too complicated to call definitely from my chair.

Noone said it was going to be easy. Actually tough ones are exactly the ones where I don't say anything to the user. If it is a easy one I try it myself.

This one is one is a difficult one.

I like the article and the images are kinda needed for the explanation, but I think they are copyright of the arcade games company, and the 50 years are not over yet.

MAME alone is a tricky legal issue, I am not qualified to make an accurate final ruling, but as you say the article does not work without the images so we'll leave it for now.

Is there any other CP-Staff Member that is deeper in such thema?

Yes and no. So I took the cans of worms to our lawyers who gave us more cans and more worms and some thinking and discussing to do internally. So for now please sit tight. We will arrive at a conclusion in due course.

Meaning I should give you a brake? Or should I continue pointing out what I find?

You can still poke around but no actions will occur until our discussions and policies are in place.

Ok... I'll make a list.

Anyways I am going away for 5 weeks (working in another continent) so my availability will be quite reduced.

See you around

According to a message in the B&S Forum about copyright of images...

@Sean-ewington can you please check this[^]? Is such allowed? or better to contact the user?

It might be not the last one that I post.. how do you prefer o be done? Posting it here or something else?

If digital ocean and its services weren't mentioned so much and linked to, then maybe. Bower seems harmless. But unfortunately we've had too much abuse of community reviews and we've had to crack down on them. The article has been removed.

And the way of procedure?

Post here summoning you, so you can have a look?
or better in Abuse report forum and let the guys decide?

Hmmm. These are case by case. I usually need to take a look. So either here or fire me an email?

I'm getting the following HTML for each Formatted/C# section when I preview the article:

HTML

<font color="#0000ff" face="Consolas" size="2"><font color="#0000ff" face="Consolas" size="2"><font color="#0000ff" face="Consolas" size="2">using</font>

Any thoughts?

I'd be happy to help. Are you pasting from something?

Sure - can you see my article? I only have one in my account.

Sean Ewington26-Aug-15 10:01

26-Aug-15 10:01

Yup I can see it. I could certainly fix it, but I need to know how you created it to figure out how to avoid it happening again.

Or if it is just painful overall you could send the article to me and I could format it for you.

I'd like to know how to fix it for future articles.

I copied/pasted the code from Visual Studio 2013 Premium. Then I highlighted the code and changed it to Formatted/C#. When I previewed it I got the results in my initial post.

Paul Berglund27-Aug-15 4:56

Hi Sean,
I figured it out - apparently doing the copy/paste from Visual Studio was embedding formatting into the article. If I save the code in Notepad first and then copy/paste from there I can format the code with Formatted/C# in the wizard and it displays properly.

Thanks for your help!
Paul
