Some applicable Z8Games Terms of Use explained

Before I start, as with all my seriously long threads, please don't waste my time and post useless messages such as "tl;dr" or "cool story bro" and other similar statements. It does nothing to contribute to the actual point of the thread and just shows that you can not comprehend an intelligent thread. Now that the bad part is over, without further a due:

I am going to go through and explain some relevant terms of use from Z8Games that apply directly to a lot of threads being made by users. Hopefully this will shed light on why Z8Games staff and the company in general do things the way they do them.

IMPORTANT - YOU MUST READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF USE AND ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT. BY CLICKING ON THE "I ACCEPT. REGISTER" BUTTON THAT APPEARS ON THE REGISTER PAGE, YOU INDICATE THAT YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE.

The opening statement found on the Terms of Use. Upon registering an account on this website, you have agreed to abide by these Terms of Use set forth. Whether you read them or not is your responsibility. If you get punished for violating them and claim ignorance, that's your fault.

[FONT=&quot]General Forum Policies[/FONT]

Z8Games does not monitor all submissions to the site, but reserves the right to do so and to remove or edit anything that is in violation of these terms of use or other policies of Z8Games.

This is for those of you that constantly complain about your threads being edited, moved, closed, and/or deleted. Z8Games staff has the right to do anything they deem necessary with a thread that is in violation of these terms of use or other policies of Z8Games, which includes the Z8Games forum rules. If you don't like it, I don't think that is their problem :cool:

[FONT=&quot]Termination of Usage[/FONT]

Z8Games may terminate or suspend your access to all or parts of the Service, without notice, for any conduct that Z8Games in its sole discretion, believes is in violation of this Agreement or applicable law, or is detrimental to the interests of another user or any third party.

Z8Games also reserves the right to alter or permanently ban any player's account with or without any notice at any time for any reason should the need arise.

If they feel the reason is adequate, then they have every right to suspend and/or deactivate your account. When someone gets banned, there was obviously a reason. As it states here, they have every right to do so without notice.

[FONT=&quot]Information Provide by You[/FONT]

If you submit information to our site, you agree not to (1) post or transmit anything that is defamatory, libelous, abusive, unlawful, obscene, threatening, fraudulent, ****ographic or harmful, or that could encourage criminal or unethical behavior; (2) post or transmit pyramid schemes, chain letters, or conduct gambling; (3) post or transmit anything that violates the copyright or intellectual property rights of any person or entity; (4) post or transmit a virus or any other harmful component; or (5) contact other site users through unsolicited e-mail, telephone calls or any other method of communication.

Harassment is often an issue at any situation, which causes insecurity, lack of interest in the game environment and during some situations may pose a threat. Harassment may include calling inappropriate names, producing offensive or negative remarks which may be directed to a single player or a group of players, passing rumors or any message in the chat window that is considered offensive in accordance with the "Game Policy".

Thus, harassment of any kind regardless of the degree of harassment is not tolerated under any circumstances. These matters are compiled into a serious consideration since the security and the interest of other players are highly important to the nature of our business. Treat each and every player the way you would like to be treated.

I'm pretty sure that the public "hatred" towards a particular race of people, regardless of their actions, is considered defamatory, abusive, and encourages unethical behavior (more people acting in the same abusive and/or racist manner towards a particular race). It could also fall under the policies of harassment as stated above. This is not the only example, but the best one in recent days as I have noticed. Consider yourselves lucky that the Moderators and GM's are being lenient with such rules.

[FONT=&quot]In Closing[/FONT]

All rules and regulations that govern the entire game policy are set by Z8Games and must be followed without any violation. Z8Games reserves the right to change or add other rules should the need arise.

Each player, by engaging his/her self in the game play agree to follow all the above rules which are set forth.

Call me a wannabe-Moderator or whatever names you use for these kind of posts. I am only stating what information is already there and should be payed attention to. Some of the threads being made in recent days are just about in direct violation of some of these Terms of Use and users should consider themselves lucky that the Z8Games staff is being lenient towards your actions.

Be a little less ignorant and make it easier on everyone. Be a little more mature and maybe now you will take your actions into consideration first before posting. A simple "I hate Brazilians" thread could potentially lead to you losing your account. Not to mention, it does absolutely no good and gets nothing accomplished. End of seriously long thread.

Until next time...

NOTE: I am not Brazilian Just pointing out the obvious.
