Why is it then people on these boards get bent out of shape when you post point values on army lists? It's kind of the same thing isn't it? except that perhaps in this form a person is presenting the material to the general public.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/848237.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/848237.page GMT Army Builder - how do they get around IP laws.

OP for posting point values but I've seen it, probably in about 1 out of every 10 army lists I see posted.

When it comes to these forums, it is indeed a good reason. Matter of fact, it is the only reason that matters. Posting on these forums is a privilege, not a right. If Yakface doesn't want us posting copyrighted material or pics of the test Dark Eldar models by Juan Diaz then that is his perogative and he doesn't need a reason why.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/848889.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/848889.page GMT Army Builder - how do they get around IP laws.
Now, in terms of the answer to my question, "becuase I said so" is not a very good answer any way you look at it. It does not in any way explain why points aren't allowed (not like anyone really abides by that rule) on army lists.

However, thanks to wonderful, intelligent and meaningful posters like shellfishguy who can actually answer a question with an answer instead of a statement, my question has been answered. Therefore, This thread is done. Thank you for your time Ghaz, now you can go get a life.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849072.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849072.page GMT Army Builder - how do they get around IP laws. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849095.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849095.page GMT Army Builder - how do they get around IP laws.
As for comparing forum rules to war - you have completley missed the point. It's accepting "becuase I said so" as a valid answer which I take issue with, becuase that same blind passive following is the same mentality which sparked Iraq and, even worse, the holocaust.

To say one has nothing to do with the other is ignorance.

GW get there knickers in a twist and sue people over stupid gak, then you cant post point cost, look on most forums and there be the same rules.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849136.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849136.page GMT Re:Army Builder - how do they get around IP laws.
Because it's the forum rules, that's why. Go give them a read and you will see it.


That's what Ghaz said... if that's considered arrogant and unhelpful then you've got REALLY thin skin...

Linky to the rules in case you need them... which I'm sure you don't... but I'm being helpful! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849143.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248799/849143.page GMT Army Builder - how do they get around IP laws.
There has been enough information presented in this thread to answer the OP's question.

Everything other than that is just a flame war...
