hi Tania,
the Wiki for the other site is publicly available, to read, however if you want to reuse content from there you have to be a member, and you cannot re-post it here. You would have to link to it here. At least, that is how I understand the rules.
That's what i wanted to do with that.. link it to some letter examples at the other site.
Someone from other site, did tell me she didnt mind me get some stuff out of her stuff thou and visa versa, her and i were discussing this recently.. i guess if that is going to be a rule breach.. i'll have to ask her to see if she minds helping me a little with the wiki at PR on a couple of little things if it comes to that (as far as i understand both her and i want to help the CFS community in general). Being her own stuff put together.. she would be able to post a little of what she's found elsewhere.
or is what is posted at the other site then OWNED by the other site?? and we then aint allowed to put the info we've done or our own posts elsewhere???
So are you saying that posting at the other site take away a persons owership of anything they post??? and they cant allow another to copy their stuff??
however if you want to reuse content from there you have to be a member, and you cannot re-post it here
ah so one can reuse it if one is a member but post it anywhere but HERE?????
i dont understand why the other site would not want to help all with CFS and actually make it harder for those with CFS to gain info.
Why are those who want no part of site wars.. being made to feel like they are being dragged into them....
**sorry im so touchy, ive had a bad week and was in hospital yesterday and highly stressed, i just feel like the sites should be working to help the whole CFS communities, not jsut thinking about themselves... we are all in this together and as far as i see have some overall goals and aims**
i spend every ounce of energy i have trying to help those with CFS/ME and on the CFS situation. It extremely frustrates me the walls put up even within our own communities which help stop people getting all the help they could get.
i dont understand why people have set up a site which is said to want to help the community.. yet on the other hand.. not want to.
(this is probably my Asperger's coming out.. i dont understand anything except when it's black and white.. and your own site rule now is confusing me esp since ive already talked to the one who's stuff i asked if i could copy and got permission to do so.. i thought it was created to help people and get something done about the ME stuff).
...........
I thought the idea of the other site was encouraging advocacy and other things.. how is it encouraging advocacy when there is a ban on sharing on info??? which even bars people from sharing their own info and creations!!
(i will try to get my head around this but im right now extremely frustrated and confused about the whole thing.. about a site saying they want to help those with CFS but then doing things which is against this principle and actually STOPPING info).
.....
sorry awol.. my post isnt directed at you. I hope those from the other site will help me understand why me and another cant share our info and work as we've spoken about... and of explain how (blocking info to those who have CFS/ME and make it harder to find) this is right.
.....
ive not a clue if my post is over the top or not.. if it is can someone please pm me so i can remove it and try posting it another way. Thanks.
