Is this correct? - Page 2

I just recommend that it's perfectly fine to post a quote for discussion but when you do, please post the name of the book it's from or at least that it's actually from a book to avoid copyright issues.


It seems to be correct English, just the sentence structure is a bit awkward and out of the ordinary. Grammatically I don't see much wrong in it.

excuse me...aren't you being overly defensive over the whole issue?
i mean...I just thought that it is your originally created line and soo...well...I posted..I think you should have mentioned the book you were referring to....I just don't have any problem with you posting anything here...It's your forum...everybody's forum..C'mon..I am not the moderator to have any prob with you posting anything...And why would I?
And no need to bash Yash and Mahi....In case you haven't noticed dear..I wasn't being rude, If you are referring your post to me..And Mahi wasn't preaching...this is her job...To solve the disputes her...Incase, you want one public apology from me...Here it is...I am sorry..If you thought i was rude😊It's just i thought..And as forsuggesting you anything...I won't..now..I would take care of that...thankyou very much

No need to get defensive Now whatever made you infer that is beyond me... I dont need to get defensive for any sensless preaching...😕And only if u had noticed who started the thing and who was rude! I dont think I asked for your advice in anycase, so even if you are a DT, please offer advice only when it is asked for... I take offence to your statement - it is instigating and a pot shot at me...

And I dont know how a quote is disrupting copyright😆 You make me laugh, as if I am making money by a quote from Da Vinci Code..😆😆 Being a mod necessarily doesnt mean you need to preach each time, just as if one has a gun he doesnt need to keep firing...😛

And thanks for speakng on the actual topic finally...😊

From what I saw, Ananya wasn't being rude. Her tone was not harsh. And this post of yours is indeed in a harsh tone but I'm not taking any offense of it. I don't have any personal issue with you. In fact before this, I don't even think I've met you.

But what you're calling preaching is my job. I need to make sure that there aren't any fights here and any problems that break out are sorted out before it gets to a point when it becomes a full fledged fight.

Copyright issues don't only come in if you're making money off of something. It's an issue when the original writer/reader doesn't get the credit. The whole point is that whenever you take a direct quote out of a book you give it credit. That's the norm.

I'm sorry if something I've said made you make that comment. I didn't intend to target you. My first point wasn't only for you but for everyone so that the calm environment of this forum is not disrupted.

Thanks for apologizing, Ananya, and I admire your action to keep things calm in the section.

No one meant to be rude, and let's just clear this misunderstanding here and now so we don't hold any grudges for the future.

BT welcomes you all and if there's any discussion all of you should join as book lovers.

Thanks
