    Nope - posts are copyrighted material here. The person writing them has the copyright. The forum owner may also have some right to them - not sure.

    A few times I've received permission from the member to use a post - but with appropriate credit given to the author and a link to his site and this forum also included.

    Agreed Kay King on the copyright issue. The content do give idea on what is the problem faced by the member and the solution for the problem respectively. From the idea gathered above, try to write article yourself or get someone to write for you, you will have plenty idea and plenty to write about.
