I generally only bring up copyright in threads where the poster is asking for random third parties to update an existing addon and publish a "fan update", or where the poster is talking about modifying an existing addon (perhaps to add a feature the author declined to add, or to remove the options GUI because the poster thinks that a few KB of static memory usage actually matters) and publishing that modification.

However, without knowing what thread(s) you're talking about specifically, I can't really tell you why I (or someone else) posted what I (or someone) posted in that thread.
