Your bigger error is posting this stuff without Party Poker’s explicit permission.
“I actually copied these poker terms from Party Poker’s poker terms page. Hope they don’t mind” is a good way to get your affiliate account closed. They may have no problem with you reprinting their content on your own site, but doing it without permission is crazy.

Relax…,It’s all common poker terms and you will finde all off this
poker terms if you do a simple search on google.
http://www.partypokerfaq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2“It’s all common poker terms and you will finde all off this

Just because something is all over the net doesn’t make it okay to steal it. If this is orginally from Party Poker, ask permission.
It is one thing for any old site to steal content. It is different for a site called partypokerfaq.com to have stolen content on it.
Having that “official” sounding name is an added responsibility.
If there is no problem, then “relax” and ask permission. You will be better off.

Now I starting to get pissed at you. My site is a pokersite and
using well known common poker terms. Do you want me to make
up new words for All-In, Bet, Bluff , Cash Out, House, Raise…???My site is for players that whant to play at Party Poker and they need to know what I’m talking about.
:angry:You are started to get pissed at me because I tried to help you?
Besides being sleazy, stealing content is a bad idea. If you didn’t write something yourself, you have no right to use it without permission.

Start your own threads, and don’t piss in mine!
Your acting like you talking to someone that copy a story from
The TIMES.WE ARE TALKING ABOUT COMMON POKER TERMS
And guess what you don’t need to replay!
Now, now, simmer down everyone.
No we are talking about you using definitions without permission. I know you are a newbie, so I’ll try once more to help you out.
Using something someone else wrote without permission, even definitions of common poker terms, is stealing. If the owner of those definitions complained sites you have affiliate relationships with, they likely would close your account.
In your case, you are calling your site a FAQ for Party Poker, so you better not embarrass them or they won’t like it.
If you think it is no big deal, then asking permission is no big deal. But if you don’t ask permission, then you think you need to steal the content.
Don’t say “hope they don’t mind”, make sure they don’t mind. Otherwise you could just be wasting all your time because you might not get paid anything.
Now calm down and take the thirty seconds it takes to send Party an email asking permission.

Ok you guys, you both have a point.
Tobad, it’s just plain easier, safer and more curteous to ask. Always stay on the safe side, all you will do in the process is make a friend out of party poker, which will help you. As a matter of fact, if I was to develop a party poker website I would be talking to them a lot because they would probably be extremely eager to help you make it perfect. They stand to benefit.
Classics, it is true that these terms are public domain. People have been using them forever, they are generic poker terms and no one owns them. I don’t know if they are presented in a specific format that makes it possible to copyright, but the terms themselves are definitely public domain.
Now make up and let’s move on. Classics didn’t mean to hurt you, Tobad. Everything is fine.
“it is true that these terms are public domain”
Huh? That is just nonsense. This isn’t about the poker terms for pete’s sake. LOL.
The page in question uses definitions of the terms. That is in no way public domain. The idea is ridiculous. It’s like suggesting some poker rules I might write are public domain, or a biography of a person.
So can we stop with this silliness about the terms please.
Now if we can focus on what is really the point, the point is not to illegally copy stuff from other sites without their permission, especially if you are going to have an affiliate deal with them.

The terms are still public domain – the presentation may not be – also as I said above.
Sometimes you just argue to argue. You have a lot of aggression – it may be a good idea to get some of that out of your system in some other way.
I’m not arguing to argue. Please don’t troll again.
And for hopefully the last time, stop talking about the stupid terms. This isn’t about the terms, or the presentation of the terms. That is just nonsense talk, so please don’t mention that again.
“Fold” is a term. Terms are obviously not the issue.
Fold: the act of surrendering your hand, and giving up all rights to a pot.
The second is a definition, written just now by me. Stealing a list of such definitions off someone else’s site is theft.
You are arguing with yourself.
You are repeating what I said, trying hard to put different aspects of it into different words. And you are extremely agressive and impolite.
I’m not saying what you said. What you wrote was obviously false. The content in question is plainly not public domain, even if it has been stolen many times.
And then you flamed, again, for no apparent reason. Either focus on the issue, or don’t, but stop flaming.
I’ve bent over backwards to be polite, despite your rude reply. The novice’s rude replies can be expected because he doesn’t know any better. But you need to stop this flaming way.
If you didn’t understand the issue, fine, say that. But obviously what you wrote is completely false. Stealing someone’s definitions is theft. The terms have nothing to do with anything here. It’s like talking about the font of the text.
