2. The mods and most freepers seems utterly clueless on the proper attribution of vidoes.

The mods have been working their butts off to see that videos are properly attributed but we don't read every thread. Instead, we rely on posters for a heads up.

*One* lemon?!?

Lemons are so two years ago. ;-)

We're on to things like papaya, watermelons, honeydew melons, jugs of Jell-O and ice chests we just don't need anymore.

Don’t waste our time yacking about how much of an article should be excerpted.

Google 'Righthaven' and get back to us, you ignorant slut.

You are doing a great job. It really is almost a miracle how freerepublic has endured through the years.

I think part of the reason is good moderation. The spirit of Jefferson mixed with the spirit of Burke.

When it comes to this issue who was the source for the vid. Some were arguing this one blog over the other. Finally some mod made a decision and put it down to some “blog”.

Though, of course, the source was no blog at all. It was Austrian TV... Probably recorded by the ORF.

What IS the proper policy when posting vidoes like this.....

We have people like Stadler, Farrage, Wilders, Palin....

Personally I choose to use their names in the “author” field.

Is that the right way to go about it?

Thanks for the excellent work done. And I really really mean it.

Fred.

My best friend did his oil engineering degree down there, so I was down there a few times.

Better Mexican food than Norway :-)

Anyhow I think I agree with the anti blogpimp brigade.

If you have to excerpt. You do include the “meat” Which definitely includes the link to the video in the case of the Austrian speech.

Take care.

America is still an inspiration to freedom loving Eurotwits.

We’re just getting a bit worried is all :-)

Cheers.

What does Righthaven have to do with whining about bloggers not excerpting, you vacuous whore monger?

Obviously you are not, since you are engaging on this thread. That whole statement was based on the discussion on the proper attribution of an Austrian government public session of parliament... Sort of like a session of Congress on CSPAN.

It seemed like people were fighting which blog were the first to report the speech?

I don’t know. I think you generally are doing a great job, and compared to large forums in nations like Sweden and the UK, the level of freedom here is immense. Which fits well into the ideal of why I love America - Freedom - It’s a beautiful thing.

Cheers,

Fred.

I'm an "utterly clueless" mod.

That's why you've got freelance vigilantes like the Pimpbusters™ at your side, and at your back.

Besides, we run out of stuff to blow up in the yard, we have to go after somebody.

I think the "Author" field is where you attribute the individual. The "Source" field is generally the name of the website where you find it.

This is not FR policy, just a rule-of-thumb. The whole blogpimp thing has messed things up a bit.

I Love blog pimps.

I never read most of them.

Blog pimps just need a little more attention that most FRepers.

Some of them , well maybe a few have something to to say.

But they must be a fairly good speller. We at least better than me.

Why don't you love blog pimps?

I have only one blog I like to read.

Michael Yon

Are all blogger blog pimps?

I don't think I'll wright a blog.

You Kneed too check spelling even when the words or spelled rite.

I hate it when I want to have a Bloody Mary and I go to the crisper for celery and it's all limp. A bunch of freakin' limp celery stalks.

I mean, that kind of sucks.
