In addition to reading this document it would be beneficial to read the Netiquette Core Rules.

 

This document is in addition to the registration agreement to which every user agreed to when signing up to use this forum. The agreement is copied in full, below.

Although the moderators and administrator of this forum try their best to keep this forum free of any offensive content, there may be small, isolated incidents in which it is posted, and you as a user, accesses it. While we will try to remove such content before it is accessed by you or other users, it is impossible for us to keep track on each message posted on this forum at every moment of the day. If such content is posted, we will either edit or remove the post, and the appropriate action will be taken towards the user. You, therefore, acknowledge that all material posted on these forums express the views and opinions of the user which made the post and not the administrators, moderators, or system administrator (unless the posts are made by these people); therefore we cannot, and will not be held reliable for such content that is posted on these forums.

 

Upon registering, you agree to never use this forum for any vulgar, false, sexually oriented, threatening, obscene, abusive, hateful, slanderous, or anything that violates ANY acceptable laws; and you also agree to never hack, or attempt to hack into any area of this forum. You also agree never to post any copyrighted material, which you do not expressly own the copyright to, or that you do not have the authorization to use. Advertisements, spam (or useless information posted often), solicitation, and chain letters ARE NOT allowed on this forum. Failure to abide by these terms will subject your account to an immediate and permanent banning from our forum, and, depending on the severity of the incident, we may contact your internet service provider (ISP). For this reason, your IP address is logged each time you post a message, login or logout of the forum and each click is logged for a certain amount of time. This information will be expressly used to assist us if there are any attempts to hack into certain areas of this forum and may be used to contact your ISP upon breaking this agreement

 

We agree to never sell or disclose any private information that you submit to us. Once you have successfully registered, you will be given a public profile, which allows everyone to see the various information that you submit to us; however, you are not required to disclose any of this information. You will be allowed to privatize certain information (such as your e-mail address), and you are not obligated to provide us with any personal information, which includes but is not limited to your gender, birth date, and name. While we agree never to sell any information, you provide to us, we will not be held responsible for any information that may be compromised by someone whom may hack into your account. It is highly recommended you use a password that is longer than six (6) characters and is a combination of letters and numbers. If your account has been hacked into, notify the system administrator immediately and we will look further into the matter, and adequate punishment will be given.

 

This forum system uses two methods of logging in, cookies and session identification (SID). If you use cookies to login, the forum will save your username, encrypted password, and board passwords to your computer in the form of a "Cookie". The other method, session identification, will store your current session on this server using your IP address, username, encrypted password, and any board passwords you may use while using your session. If you use session identification, you will be logged out after three (3) hours of inactivity.

 

By clicking register below, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions as long as you hold this username and failure to do so may result in severe consequences.
