As an addendum to my prior post, I have copied the relevant portions of the
LUGNET TERMS OF USE AGREEMENT
(Version 1.0.1, 7 Mar 2000) here. Remember, these are the rules and
standards that each and every individual posting to LUGNET agrees to abide
by when applying for full membership, or just to post messages here. Also,
regardless of member/non-member status, we are each expected to follow these
terms, even if we have not read them/read them in full. As most people know,
ignorance of the law is not an excuse to break it - the same can be applied
here. If you have not taken the time to read the LUGNET TERMS OF USE
AGREEMENT, please see: http://www.lugnet.com/admin/terms/agreement
- As a user of this site, you are expected to read, understand, and abide by
the Terms of Use as set forth herein. If a portion is unclear to you, you
should ask a parent or guardian to explain, or write to terms@lugnet.com for
clarification.
- Although we hope that everyone can play well together, we must reserve the
right to allow or to refuse access to this site to anyone, for any reason,
with or without prior warning or explanation.
- 6. You will not use this site for any illegal activities and you will not
attempt to gain unauthorized access to this site or to other sites or
systems through this site.
- 1. (do not) Restrict or inhibit any other user from using the discussion
groups.
- 2. (do not) Falsely present yourself as a representative, employee, or
official of a LEGO company or of LUGNET through the accidental or deliberate
use of trademarks or servicemarks in your identity or through misleading or
confusing statements in your postings.
- 3. (do not) Post anonymously or post any message in which the ‘From:’
header is not an e-mail address under your control. (Spamblocks are OK,
however, so long as it is possible for a reasonably intelligent human to
reconstruct your e-mail address using clearly documented instructions, which
you must include in each such message.)
- 4. (do not) Post using a pseudonym, alias, screen-name, handle, alter-ego,
meno, or any other type of name which is not your own or which hides your
true identity, unless your real name and identity is clearly understood,
accepted, and documented by the community as the true identity behind such
messages.
- 5. (do not) Post or transmit any unlawful, threatening, abusive, libelous,
defamatory, obscene, vulgar, pornographic, profane, or indecent information
of any kind, including without limitation any transmissions constituting or
encouraging conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to
civil liability, or otherwise violate any local, state, national, or
international law.
- 6. (do not) Post or transmit any information, software, or other material
which violates or infringes upon the rights of others, including material
which is an invasion of privacy or publicity rights or which is protected by
copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right, or derivative works with
respect thereto, without first obtaining permission from the owner or right
holder.
- 10. (do not) Post or re-post a message excessively, especially unsolicited
advertisements, even if they are directly or indirectly related to LEGO toys.
- LUGNET, its owners, and its operators have no obligation to monitor the
discussion groups. However, LUGNET and its owners and/or operators reserve
the right at all times to disclose any information as necessary to satisfy
any law, regulation, or governmental request, or to edit, refuse to post, or
to remove any information or materials, in whole or in part, that in the
sole discretion of LUGNET and its owners and/or operators are in violation
of these terms and conditions or of applicable law.
- This agreement is effective until terminated by LUGNET or its owners
and/or operators, at any time without notice. In the event of termination,
you are no longer authorized to access the discussion groups and the
restrictions imposed upon you with respect to material downloaded from the
discussion groups, the disclaimers, and limitations of liabilities set forth
in this agreement, shall survive.
I hope this clears up any confusion anyone may have.
Sincerely,
Matthew Gerber
