OK, Kevin, I'll stick around for a while... but I know that you realize that most of the people with any integrity left this thread long ago. It simply wasn't worth putting up with all of the abuse... particularly when you aren't getting paid for it :)
Without pointing any fingers, and for the record, here are SI's terms of use, for the benefit of all. Maybe we could all be a little (a lot) more civil to each other in the future:
Summary of Terms of Use Silicon Investor is largely a self-policing discussion site, which means that our site administrators will respond and react to e-mails received from members regarding violations of the Terms of Use. Upon receipt of such e-mails, the SI Administrators can and will take appropriate action (at their sole discretion), including, but not limited to the removal of post(s) and the suspension or termination of account(s). That's right, they can terminate your membership without refund.
Chances are - if you're honest, sincere and civil with your posts - you will never have to worry about the SI Administrators. In fact, the SI Administrators are really great people and they perform an invaluable service in maintaining the sanctity of Silicon Investor.
However, you subject yourself to possible suspension and/or termination if you do any of the following:
* Provide untrue or incorrect information about yourself during the Silicon Investor Registration Process.
* Use Silicon Investor for illegal purposes or for the transmission of material that is unlawful, harassing, libelous, invasive of another's privacy, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene, tortuous, improper or otherwise objectionable.
* Use Silicon Investor in any way that infringes or may infringe the intellectual property rights, copyrights or other rights of another. For example, you may not copy and paste a press release into a post on Silicon Investor.
* Use Silicon Investor for the transmission of junk mail, spam, chain letters, advertising or unsolicited mass distribution of e-mail.
The SI Administrators may remove post(s) or terminate your account for these or any other violations of the Terms of Use, so make sure you read the whole thing.
As you utilize Silicon Investor, if you notice other members violating the Terms of Use, please notify us via e-mail at: webmistress@siliconinvestor.com. |
