It's possible, but I don't remember having to take down anything you've posted.
We do need to respect copyrights on the forum to keep from being sued, but if it was posted a long time ago it's more likely that the original post was lost when the first owner of this forum vandalized the site upon his leaving. After he turned over the site to HC, the original owner tried to rip off forum members by running a Ponzi scheme here on the site. When HC and elbow shut down his scam, he threw a tantrum and deleted a massive quantity of the older posts and images from the site. Elbow was able to salvage much of it and keep the forum alive. Luckily much of what was lost was fluff but a small amount of the good content was lost.
Thanks for posting the link to the pdf and checking the status of the copyright.
