Terms Of Use
PlayByWeb is a free site for the purpose of playing role-playing games in a
play-by-post format.
I. By using this site, you accept these terms of
use. We reserve the right, without prior notification, to modify, add, or remove
portions of these terms at any time. Please check these terms periodically for
changes. Your continued use of the site following the posting of changes to
these terms indicates acceptance of those changes.
II. Each and every
message posted must be relevant to the game/forum or message you are replying to
or conform to the stated purposes (e.g. only ads for games played on PBW are to
be posted in the Classifieds).
a. Games on PBW should be bona fide games
or discussions. Boards established for the purpose of ridiculing recognizable
individuals or the promotion of off-site games and/or contests are not
allowed.
b. If you find content which violates copyright law or any point
within these terms of use, please do not attempt to police the situation
yourself, but rather bring the matter to the attention of the directors of PBW,
Inc. [abuse@playbyweb.com]. Be sure to
include sufficient information for the directors to find the problem.
III. Although most games are run by adults
for adult players, PlayByWeb is a family board with members of all ages. We ask
that you consider that some of our younger members may read your posts, and to
use appropriate language in all publicly viewable posts. While some rough
language and/or mild sexual content may be appropriate to the game, we ask that
regular use of such language and/or more explicit sexual content be restricted
to private threads, and furthermore, if a primary purpose of the game in
question, that the game be relocated to the Adult section.
a. We
recognize that some of our members wish to play games with mature themes, and we
provide the Adult section for this purpose, where all moves are closed to
lurkers. Game admins are responsible for ensuring that individual members are of
appropriate age to participate.
b. Games with adult material found in the
general boards *will* be moved to the adult section by the site admins. This
will be at our discretion, and not open to discussion.
IV. Messages
violating the rules may be deleted without apology. Participants consistently
violating the rules may be banned without apology.
