First of all, since you have posting right here in Lugnet, you already
declared that you agreed on this TOS before, and of course you supposed
to read it before accepting. If this is not the case, its certainly your
own problem.

I assume that the owners of this forum, web site, and everything related
to it, Todd and Suzanne namely, are living in Boston/Massachusetts and
they must respect the laws of Massachusetts, and they are responsible
from anything going on in Lugnet (of which they have the OWNERSHIP)
being appropriate from the laws of Massachusetts point of view. I live
in Turkey, but I *can't* do anything which is legal in Turkey but not in
Massachusetts in Lugnet. Being physically inside the borders or using
facilities/services from abroad which are inside the borders are not
quite different things for me.

Do you think it is wise to control my e-mail to you or your e-mail to me
or our e-mail to some other one? Or do you think it is possible to check
everyone's personal messages for profanity? And what's the purpose of
it? Personal e-mail are what they are called: *PERSONAL*. Rules of
Lugnet is valid inside the Lugnet only, and whether I would give a heck
to them in my personal life or not is completely my choice. What's next?
banning from Lugnet since I used profanity while personally talking to
my friends here in my office?

Jesse, all I can advice to you is stop posting for a while. And lurk
around for a duration. Learn the ways, be familiar for the people
around. Then come back, (not as a misfit) after all the hassle is quite
forgotten.
