Greetings all members (and all new visitors that wish to become members)!
After a serious spat of rouge accounts being setup to redirect people to various 'porn' personal websites made primarily by people that just want to up the number of links to their home page, I've upgraded both the User Agreement, and a number of pages on the website.
First and foremost, this will not affect 99.9% of you! But just in case, I’m posting a copy of the new User Agreement below:
The new lines are the “Because of recent security violations, your IP Address will now be tracked…” and a change in the last paragraph to include “or Any User Account”.
As many of you know the MRC takes SPAM seriously, and we seriously hate it. As some of you can remember, unauthorized advertisements are immediately taken down, and usually the person making them are made fun of. The $250.00 spam clean-up charge has been in our Acceptable Use Policy, and Terms of Service for as long as I can remember, and while I have yet to enforce that, in the case of our little Porn Spam pirate, if I figure out who they are, they will sent an invoice, and turned over to collections when they don’t pay.
For the record, please don’t click the links of suspicious new accounts, as we are working to clean them up, but must first gather evidence in order to bill the individual doing this correctly.
Also, for those of you worrying about your IP Address that information is locked an only available to Administrative users, which include myself and Araruin at this time.
