[solved - thread needs cleanup due to copyright issues] What has happened to the British Spanking Thread - Page 3

This is absolutely rubbish. Harrison Marks and the other old bastards who use copyright laws to get the forum crushed should be kissing the ground of those who own this website. Those publications are out of print and no one would even know who the hell they were or what they created if it wasn't for this forum. I'm 34 and hardly anyone I know has ever heard of Janus, Februs, Roue, Blushes, etc. Those publishers should be grateful this forum had kept their work alive. If not by now most of those aged fools will soon be 6 feet under and won't be able to gripe anymore about copyright infringement. And now I will pour myself a stiff drink and raise my glass in hoping they don't let the door hit them on the arse on the way out.

It seems to be part of a recent clampdown by all the British run spanking sites. Imagefap in November added almost all of the well known ones to their 'banned' list. The new videos are also appearing more infrequently on sharing forums and most the links are quickly removed.

Whilst I understand it on the video forums less so for the magazines many of which, as mentioned before, are out of print (plus the re-prints by Janus are often poor quality, the scans of originals posted here are better quality!).

It was because of this forum, I became a huge fan of Harrison Marks, having never seen much of his work before. I bought a couple of those Blue Vanities DVD's which had a lot of his clips on them (GHM most probably get royalties). Now it seems they've shot themselves in the foot over this, as any potential Marks fans joining the forum now will find it much harder to discover his work and they won't buy the official merchandise.

When the overworked, unpaid volunteer moderators have finished going thru all the tens of thousands of images in the how many hundreds of posts in the thread.

Steve.

I agree never thought much of Kane

Just a thought - I realise the folks at v-e-f don't have time to clean this thread up, but can we, the users?

Is there a way of dividing up the posts, emailing them out, and then us users delete offending content and then email our chunk of posts back? I'm thinking 50 posts divided by a dozen of us; something like that.

I'm no techie so this may just be impossible to do. It is just a thought.

thanks for trying to help, but it's not possible.

members just can edit their own posts and even if all members (having posted to that thread) would take a look and eventually remove the banned contents - this is not a reliable sharing of work to solve this problem properly.

you have to wait until the moderators are finished.

that's not true. but we aren't magicians, that thread is very big (>3100 posts). so be patient, please, it can take some weeks (cause the guys who do the cleaning don't work on it 24/7 - we have a life outside this forum, too).
