Messages 17 and 18 are lifted from an article by Charles Krauthammer. I noticed 18 first and judged it an error, as the first paragraph is the posters own. However, after I asked then to amend the post and they dithered, I then noticed 17 which contains no input whatsoever from the poster......As of the time of this complaint they have changed neither.

In fact I beleave that unless the poster includes the origonal authors name, it would indeed constitute "Theft of Intellectual Property". Now indeed while its true that almost everyone, especially those of us who play NFT "borrow" things from others. Most players, Myself Included, at least list their referances in our factbook if not in our actual posts, Myself Included. The only advice I can offer is for the poster to include his references in the future. That said I am not a mod and theirby I cannot do anything about the situation. I just figured I would post my thoughts on the situation.

I have edited the quotes to clarify the attribution and posted on the important issue (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13663843&postcount=35).
