| | | My concern is how SI Admins interpret their own, recently revised, TOU.
Some have been banished for no apparent reason because the TOU certainly were not violated.
Now we have the issue of someone invading this and other threads to further her own agenda yet the TOU are unenforced even with numerous blatant violations. Exception to the rule? Why?
I don't think there are many who would object to GregS making his own exception to the rule here on his thread.

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 ("tortious" or whatever -- you know what we mean), 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. If you believe your copyright or intellectual property rights have been infringed, please refer to our Copyright and Intellectual Property Agent for Notice page. * Use Silicon Investor for the transmission of junk mail, spam, chain letters, advertising or unsolicited mass distribution of e-mail. * Post messages that are egregiously off-topic, repetitive, or significantly disruptive to the dialog. (Note: cross-posting of the same or similar message is limited to two boards, inclusive.)
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.

Edit: Sorry, copy/paste makes it harder to read but I'm not going to take the time to reformat the TOU as they originally appeared. |
