So basically you use loop holes (I mean come on now, posting someones e-mail address on another messageboard to handle a complaint?) in your own system to be a *******.
That is just how I see it anyways.
I'm not a lawyer so I can't tell you if its a loop hole or not. I'm just reading what the policy states.
I read it as if there is a complaint about a poster, we are perfectly within our aforementioned rights to not only ban them, but also sign them up to the Marky Mark appreciation society.
Now the posting of an existing forum members email address over there, or anywhere in those circumstances I would think would come under the following section (under Terms of Use, again at the bottom of your page).
The User warrants that in its use of the Web Site it shall:
- not engage in any conduct which is unlawful, or which
may harass or cause distress or inconvenience to any person.
and
Non Compliance with Terms and Conditions
Effect of Failure to comply
Failure to comply with any Terms and Conditions may find the User being subject to, but not limited to:
- a formal warning.
- temporary or permanent banning from all MotherShip servers
Any decision made by BeyondUnreal administrators with regards a User's failure to comply will be final and all cases will be considered individually upon their merits.
and if you disagree with it
Acceptance of Terms
In using any BeyondUnreal service, whether anonymously or following registration for membership, the user agrees to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. Failure to accept these Terms and Conditions means Users do not have permission to access the Contents of the Web Site and associated services and they should cease their use of these immediately.
Not quite an MS EULA yet though..........
