It has gone on long enough where our talented and selfless posters and mods have their content stolen and republished without proper attributation.

First, FTB was stolen and printed up by the University.
Second, Octagon of Doom had the same fate,
Third, the resurgence of EMAW was given credit to others than those who deserve it;
 and now, another black eye occured when Kellis Robinette plagarized _Fan's brilliant analysis.

I will let the individuals who are responsible for the content speak for themselves but, at the very least, if you come here looking for ideas to copy, please cite your sources.

We shouldn't have to rough ridin' remind you unethical assholes of this either, but we will.  Next time we will have lawyers involved.

I confess, I have used, without permission, the Freddie Prince avatar from goEMAW for my Freddie Prince Fanclub blog.

Guys, open source material seems to work pretty well for some other companies.

all that we ask is that you splash goEMAW.com across the header, mention it in the article, put it as one of the tags, tweet that you got it from goEMAW, and give us most of your money. it's not that rough ridin' difficult assholes.

Can you imagine how horribly boring sports coverage of KSU would be without it's collective muse?

Be careful with the threats.  Just don't know if that is a world I want to live in.

I'm all for sharing stuff for personal use.  I draw the line at material used for commercial gain.

Kellis' "defense" would have more credence if he didn't cover one of the exact same rough ridin' things that _FAN covered. I mean, jfc.
