The issue of copyright is up in the air as to who is owner of the content, the poster, or the forum. The issue tilts to the person who made the post. Hopefully you all will understand why we agreed to his requests. It is not something we wanted to do, but we also don’t want to take the risk that he will redirect all of the urls of his pics tosomething inappropriate (which can easily be done), or take the risk that we will be taken to court to fight over such childish nonsense.

Actually it’s not. The forum owns its database. I happen to operate another forum using VB software. It’s pretty easy to state in the registration document that C&C forum offers a three day ability to edit or delete posts to every member making said posts. After three days all posts, pictures or articles are considered to be a permanent part of the database and will be removed or not at the sole discretion of the C&C forum owners, not the member who made the post. All members who post here do so of their own free will and by posting accept the terms.

Pictures, articles, or posts will NEVER be used by C&C forum to sell or charge for in anyway and C&C forum claims no copyright ownership of any members posted materials BUT 3 days after posting they become part of C&C forum database, for permanent display on this website, in the manner
currently seen. There will NEVER be a “Best of C&C” coffee table book.

The problem with what you did is you could easily have deleted only Max if that was his request and your choice but you deleted me and everyone else also. Not much point in participating here.
