Dear Bruna,

This is the second time (correct me if there�s another one I haven�t noticed yet) you start a thread on the forum to ask basically the same question: http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=23487

I�ve learned the hard way we have two options:

1) To obey the owner�s rules; or

2) to start another site with our own rules.

We are 400,000 members here and even if you don�t agree with the rules stated by the owner, for the majority (including the owner) they seem to be OK till now.

Before you throw it on my face, I want to let you know that I didn�t forget I was the one who blatantly broadcasted my disagreement with the way the rules used to be. I risked my head and my reputation, also lost some friends (if we can call "friends" people who only are "friends" when we are receiving the lord�s blessings). I did it for something I believe in, but I�m not sure if I�d do it again.

We got the new rules after all. There weren�t gains for one side or another because - even in disagreement - our objective was the same: the site and the members� benefit. The price I�ve paid was very high (and I�m the only one able to judge it) although I consider it fair.

When I started that dispute I was completely aware how much I could lose and I was willing to, because it was for a fair cause. I�m still paying the price I have to, but I won�t complain about that because it was my personal decision.

About your response, a worksheet can be either a copy or repeated. If it�s repeated, the member uploaded it twice and it isn�t to be reported since it is an old worksheet, (according to Victor�s rules); if it is a copy, this thread is unnecessary, since you can easily report it, if it pleases you.

If you want to learn it the easy way, learn it from me; if you want to learn it the hard way (from your own mistakes and taking all the risks) as I did in the past, go ahead and "good luck, dude"!
