promotion of or engaging in certain illegal activities, For example: drugs, drug paraphernalia, rape or solicitation of a minor, computer hacking, and copyright violation


That’s it right there, I always found it amusing that copyright violation is last.  It is established that linking to a site that engages in Copyright violation falls under this umbrella. 

I have no interest in arguing with you on the topic.  I told you because you can now correct it yourself. If a WizO catches it you will probably get a warning.

Also threatening me over PM is not a great way to handle this either.

My PM to you was not even remotely threatening, Stembolt.


You’re right it wasn’t.  But now you should know why I dislike PMs so much.

I have no interest in shutting down your website.  Just severing an illegal website from the boards.  Again I brought it up to you so you wouldn’t have to get warned.

Alright, cool it everybody.

I'll review the website in question (actually, I'll kick it upstairs for the boss to review as I'm not comfortable with my grasp of copyright law & how it interacts with the Code of Conduct), and get back to you.

IINM, the problem here is the use of art and other elements from the "Across Eberron" preview pamphlet.

Thanks.

EDIT: According to The Powers That Be, the link is fine.

Carry on.

Back on topic...
Perhaps you should add a section about a there being no poster map, with a link to some of the fan made ones.
The Dragon Above - Eberron news and new content for both 3E and 4E. Home of the Eberron Bestiary.

I just want to be clear that it is now OK to link to the tons of other sites that violate the OGL?
 

The fact is, stembolt, I disagree with your assessment that the Eberron Journal's use of WotC's product identity constitutes copyright infringement.


I don’t in fact think you violate product identity at all.  You violate the OGL.  Ironically you would be fine to remove the OGL and SRD based info and everything would pretty much fit under fair use (pretty much). 

Here is the breakdown:
If you use the OGL you can use the SRD and everything under it. 
If you use the SRD you cannot use non SRD material including sourcebooks, FR, Eberron and so forth.

If anyone has any problems with the facts as I presented them let me know.

Sorry if I got carried away in my responses. I'm going to remove all my off-topic posts in this thread.

That's a great idea! I'll definitely do that.
