And this is why I have a website to post the information to so that these banter section don't bloat the purpose of the thread. This will be the last post I will make on your comments. If you wish to continue this feel free to PM and we can chat there. If you wish to keep posting I will just thank you for the thread bumps.
To your topics
Wasn't that hard to find the original post
http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f113/south-lake-run-24496/ and again no where did I see on this forum you give credit to anyone.
1) Thanks for the link. I was not given the thread above in the email I received. I have made the changes to the site to note the map maker and the original thread. You could have PMed me this as well and I would have made the changes.
2) How credit is give is YOUR opinion not a rule in stone. I give credit to the people for there time in a manner that seems appropriate for what the goal of the project is. And lets not forget there are raptor owners outside this forum who might want these. I know all raptor owners should be here but only a small portion are. The website also allows for more information to be shared than what can be posted to the forum.
Yes you shared links on your web site that I'm sure that ether now or later you will try to make some sort of money on say any names of who you got to files from.
Sense you brought the website up I am happy to answer. Though if I was a paranoid person I would think you brought this up because of some back room politics but I will assume you are just curious. I, or anyone that has a website would love to monetize it in some way. However in over a decade of building the website I yet to have a sponsor contact me. Unless you are offering as you brought it up then lets chat. The site started as a hobby site and still is. I use it to share drives, post images, and summaries of past outings. I find it easier to use the website as it keeps information for drives clean and organized and allows more information to be shared for the database side of things. Oh and I pay for the site myself, did I mention that.
Also to your comment of future monetize. BMW and Jeep who I think we can agree are more well known than any of us has tried to do the same thing for a database and have had very little participation. Their websites are free as well. The issues is the same as this thread, you are in one of two camps. Share the trails or hell no I spent time making these and you can do it yourself.
Again don't get me wrong I love having access to trails like this but I do like to thank the person who did the hard work.
You obviously have some issue as you vehemently keep posting about one trail that credit was given just not in the manner you think it should be done. As noted this is meant to be a group project and I have made the change to the site once someone gave me the information.
