I've been collecting old commercials from the 80's (and occasionally the 70's), and dumping them to DVD. Along the way, I've managed to get a hold of lots of toy commercials - transformers, GI Joe and so on - and Star Wars ads. While I have a quite a few, I was wondering how many there were.

So I turn to the sea of geeks. On the internet, where all minutia of Star Wars is cataloged and inventoried, surely someone must know. Has there ever been a list of all the action figure and toy commercials?

Well, we did used to have a thread for commercials, but now Malkie doesn't allow any copyrighted material on this board at all. No pictures, no video, nothing. Kind of strange considering the very banner on this forum is made up from copyrighted pictures.

Great observation Guff! It is humorous and a bit hypocritical to ban user copyright infringement...yet nearly every banner in these forums are ripe with it!

Keep up with the double standard MODS! Surely Cartoon Network would find objection to the blatant rip off at the top of the screen there. shame_on_you

Reproduction of images is considered fair use, whereas reproduction of video footage is not. I have never removed any copyrighted images, nor locked a thread specifically because it had images in it.

I have locked threads requesting copyrighted material as that against the rules. If you want to post an image that's ok.

It's not *our* rules, it the rules of LFL. They kinda dictate to us what they allow us to use, and what we have to remove. We've received plenty of correspondence from LFL over the years regarding them wanting us to remove certain things - mostly video files from posts on the JC.

Any requests for copyrighted material will result in a ban.

Strange, I've never been banned for posting inthis thread. And at 11 pages long, it doesn't seem like anyone else has either. The whole purpose of that thread is to request images.

Is requesting images against the rules of the entirety of the JC, or is it just one of "your rules"?

The specific thread I locked was one requesting high-res images from CW DVDs - I was not willing to let the thread exist. We're lucky that LFL allows us to use the images for banners and icons etc without trouble.

The bizareness continues. Is Dustin a regular poster here? Shouldn't he be getting an official warning? Or maybe a 24 hour ban?

I don't think that link should be allowed.

But it is worth remembering that the JC and TFn are different thing.
I'm only following the rules set by LFL.

This incident has been reported

edit

I just had a quick chat in the MS, and it's been confirmed to me to remove links to copyrighted material, and to remind you that the JC and TFn are separate entities.
