community here at AB, do the threads we write/get involved/blog in belong to us once they have been published (?) on line?
or do the threads belong to AB?
and what of the participants contribution to the thread?

what are the copywrite laws on AB?

I have seen the answerbank translated into German for a German site and our questions also appear on other sites with our usernames still intact.

re: german translation, is it the whole of AB that is translated into German?

(we were not informed of that?, although is that covered by AB copywrite?)

No, its not like a german version of this, some site has poorly translated the questions and one of my answers if you translated it back into english would read "putrified small monkeys" Not something I have ever said on here, until now.

It would be covered by their terms of use ,even if they did allow it. They could turn your words on here into a book and you would have no rights over it.
