was reading a couple of older posts (because Im really busy at work today, unfortunately I cant get out of being here to go climbing) and it came to my attention that over the last few months there have been a couple of instances of journos trawling here trying to find a story. This got me thinking about how we can stop this sort of thing happening, and in particular having things we post here taken from here and quoted (usually out of context) in other media.
I was wondering about the merits of a copyright banner at the top each page. Something that states that posts are the property of the individual that posted them and the chockstone forum as a whole, and that nothing may be used (outside of the forum) without the express written permission of the person who put it there.

Anyone have any thoughts?
