VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Forum Rules

Rules Overview:

#1 Don't Use Hash Links Illegally
#2 No Monkey-Wrenching
#3 Don't "Talk Smack" to the Forum Participants

Miscellaneous Rules:

No kicking, scratching, or biting. No peeing in the water. Don't talk when someone else is talking. No sex in the champagne room.

Rule Details

I allow pretty much anything.
Why? Because it's not of my concern; I don't take responsibility for what others say for merely having a forum that doesn't pre-restrict explicit material. It's quite impossible for me to be held liable for any such post that somehow may contain illegal information, since I don't have enough time in my day to constantly be on guard for such an occurance. Not very many people post on this forum anyway.

The main rule stands:
Don't use the hash links for movies that you do not own (this is illegal). However, since I am not an expert on the matter, it may still be illegal to download a backup copy of a movie that you already own. Not that I care whether or not you do these illegal things, I just don't want to get sued for posting these links. After all, I'm not doing the illegal downloading--I merely host easier access to the addresses of the files transferred using the FastTrack-enabled networks (which also are not responsible for illegal actions, you RIAA butt-****ing ch*** ***ists).
Note: Last I checked, the movie industry wasn't planning on suing anyone (although I heard talk of a possible five-year jail sentence if caught).

Another rule I have is "No Monkey-Wrenching."
This term applies to the absent-minded pounding on one's keyboard that results in a post that deliberately makes no sense or takes up space. Continuous misuse in this fashion will result in the banning of the user's IP adress (assuming I have this authority). If I don't have this priviledge, I intend to report the obsessivly annoying forum abuser for their monkey-wrenching tendencies.

I'd also like you to know that I'd hope you to be respectful to this forum and its posters.
I do not tolerate the *****ing-out of any forum participant (unless I agree with the *****ing), and any such post with hurtful comments will be deleted without notice (again, unless I feel the hurtful comment was awesome). I do, however, tolerate the hurtful participant, and that participant should have no fear of being banned. (And yes, I have the authority to ban IP addresses.)

P.S. -- I sincerely apologize for the rude comment directed toward the RIAA. My intent was not to offend any of those stupid ***holes or their mother-****ing supporters (or even their children that they ****).
