hi.
while i totally agree that its likely that many people wouldnt be so happy if their articles/tips were copy pasted in other places/forums, i still think that his coppied pasted articles are better than 90% of the RECENT posts in here. they are interesting and poker related. period.
its like coatching in any other sports.
to see what i mean: say there is a basketball coach who coatched many years in a certain team. without getting into details/reasons- that coach finds hisself unemployed, and after a while is picked up by other team, to sign a new contract with them. its pretty obvious that some of the tricks he coatched his previous team with - will be "copied/pasted" for his new teams strategy. even if he was an assistant coatch "there" and signs as a "head coatch" here. its not that he is "stealing" facts or reinventing the game

....
we are human after all and we play the same game of poker/football/basketball you name it.
the information/tactics/tips are basically the same in every aspect of sports.
the REAL DIFFERENCE, make only the people them selves, who apply these same game methods - differently. it is NOT "same shirt, different day"

.
after all, you have the same 52 cards at every nlhe table. the question was and still is: what do you have to do to ouplay differently at the same game!
therefore the original poster/copy-paster is just CONSENTRAITING the main strategy for us which is beeing used again and again for centuries, and he isnt reinventing the wheel and he deffinately isnt "stealing" anything from no body. he is just copy- pasting someones tip concentration.
scrawnybob, at this point i'd like to ask you, with all the respect, to take a moment and re-think of this situation, bacause i've read that you wanted to delete his (in my opinion one of the best "strategy concentration") posts, and i think that it wouldnt be wrong to keep them as they are with a future promise from this guy- to edit some of his feauture post in a way they will not offend its creator.
because, with all the respect your forum is a poker forum in which im in love- and it hurts me to see, that it turned to "x posts to win a prize" or a children playground if you like, than its - yours original creation - a FRIENDLY "POKER" FORUM.
