: Here's the quick version - let's say that a website contains a message board. The website has a notice at the bottom of every page - Copyrighted blah blah. So the entire website is copyrighted. Agreed.

: If I make a post on the forum, do I maintain copyright over my post? What if I specifically type at the bottom "Copyrighted blah blah" ?

: I would expect that a typed post on someone else'e website cannot be copyrighted by this simple text. Can it?

Dear Randy,
Why pick nits? Start with what you want to acheive.
The copyright law protects what you create, if you understand what you are doing it can work for you.
