I wrote this for EA but can't/won't post it at EA anymore due to the required licensing as of today. First paragraph:
Attitudes enabling ignoring “small” errors makes it significantly harder for critics to get attention and make progress. Even if they point out an error, and they are correct that it’s an error, and people agree with them … that often isn’t good enough. That makes the job of the critic very hard.
I don't think quoting from another site could license the quoted texted, so that's OK right? But then what if I posted my entire article block quoted, then could I post the full text here while avoiding the license problem...?
Yes the current default (US) copyright/IP system is far from perfect.
I'm not aware of setting a setting and both voting things are showing up for me on my own post just like on yours (including with a private browsing window).
