Mark, you've been very stupid indeed. Sorry for the lack of subtlety here but come on, MANY of us have what I'd basically call careers in belles lettres and would have felt massively compromised in intent if this went ahead. Also bear in mind that many writers are very much control freaks about how their work appears; if they hit 'submit' they agree to their work appearing *here* and that's fine. We take great pains to delist threads from Google and through the use of handles to also obscure certain identity issues to minimise any potential aggro we might get off perfectly allowable references to what we post in the media wherein 'poster x on internet messageboard talking about online craze y'-type quotes are used in news features.
Also the last time I appeared in a chapbook, I was like FIVE. What may be good enough for you...

And maybe Suzy's right: maybe it's just a writerly habit to be very concerned about copyright, well before it officially "matters."
Just for the official record, here’s how I’d personally want the ILX copyright issue to be explained and observed. ILX is a collective publication with many contributors --- not unlike a fiction anthology or a magical magazine that lets its writers maintain ownership of their copy. By posting to this collective publication, we give permission to the entity as a whole to publish our posts here and here only, in perpetuity. It’d also be nice if we could agree to something like this: we give ILX, this "collective publication," the authority to take action on any infringement of the rights to large chunks of its material --- meaning that if someone swipes whole threads, and posters object, Andrew or any other representative of the group could demand action on their behalf.

Also, I love the idea that the random googlers who come on here ("Kanye I LUV YU I know you been thru hardtimes, me too I would do anything 4 u sexually or even as a frend") hold a copyright on their messages.
Also, I must confess that my first thought when I saw the thread originally was "Man, I hope I posted some funny shit in those threads!"
