Lara you just don't get it yet. I am not searching for anyones posts nor if I saw anyones posts would I be putting urls to find them in here. I meant the url to find all of the posts would be there for you or anyone to search and find your own or if you come across one that says something to you in a meaningfull way you may want to put it in or not do do that is your choice.

It is not the big deal you are making it out to be folks.

One of the things you are not thinking of is that others in some of the forums such as Als can not do all of this for themselves so someone can do it for them. If they want it done.

In your own forums you can add yours or others that you find if they are not angry nor salacious nor disquieting to other members but are beneficial to the other members.

No problem.

Now as to overworking the moderators. there were more than we have now at the start and many more would volunteer if needed. There are 3 or 4 in some of the forums and only a few posts to monitor if any at this time.

So why should that be a problem?

You all seem to be thilnking of the worst scenarios and not the good ones that could come from this.

Surely there are more with opinions than this few and why don't we wait and see what the majority feel about it.

Who knows they may feel the same but I would like to hear from them at least.

And no I don't want to see all of anyones postings put on it would be just a relevant post here and there.

Cheesh you are making this far more than it is.

Let me add a clarification, because it seems that in this case, there are specific concerns regarding past actions and behaviors of some members, especially when it comes to other people's privacy and their personal information.

So let's err on the side of caution for the time being and say this... You can readily post anything *you've* written in the past on any site here, since you likely own your own copyright (by default, we all do).

But let's refrain for the time being from re-posting other people's posts on NeuroTalk until we see how it goes, okay? I know this is different than what I said earlier, but I honestly wasn't aware of the history here until I went and read some more background on this issue (specifically wrt to BT, not copyright law). I'd rather try our best to protect other people's privacy and personal information, especially when that is probably what most people want anyway (protection of one's own personal information).

So please, do not post other people's posts here, and definitely do not post other people's personal information here (like their email address) unless they've given you explicit permission to do otherwise. Thank you!

Thanks but can you make an exception if in the case of the Als forum that if requested to do so by a member you can.

I see from what I read here it was to adventurous an idea.

Thanks John

Well, would we have the original poster's expressed permission to do so?

I think if the original poster granted us permission, it might be okay... but it might also depend on the specific situation (since there's a lot more "history" here than I'm aware of).

Thanks John
