Friendly TOS reminder

Hey ladies... I was on the CL board and saw a post that reminded me of some things. I started looking over the iVillage TOS, and it seems we all need a quick reminder of what is appropriate and what isn't .


I would *highly* suggest that you remove any offensive words from your previous posts... even edited words that may contain symbols in place of letters are a violation of TOS. Any copyrighted pictures need to be removed (sorry Matthew). Also, the subject matter of posts need to be watched... since our board is not on the love and sex channel, we need to be careful what we say (I promise not to talk about asparagus anymore too ;o).


Sorry to be a stick in the mud y'all, but I don't want to get nor any of my dearest friends

I think its the picture of Matthew McConaghey (sp?) that we all drool over that she meant could be a copyright problem lol. I could be wrong though lol!

LOL no one that I know of... it was something I read on the team board... kinda through me for a loop since I've seen some things here on the board lately and I don't want anyone to get in trouble.

Matthew McConaghey or however you spell his name...

Oh, now I see....not my matthew..lol


You know I wouldn't worry much about this, the only one that could or should report anyone is a member of this board and I have never seen anyone go overboard except for once. I don't think the sex we talk about is at all inapproriate...not yet at least! lol

Really?? The CL's on my other board I post on use bleeps themselves all the time, to cover for a curse, they are not cursing at anyone just using it as an expression of their frustration ..etc.. I agree with Traci I think everyone here has been very tasteful not tacky in how they post to the SEX thing. It's not like anyone is graphic or crude. They would be opposed to something that is tastefully said about sex?? Really what are we coming to, no wonder people in other countries think we are to uptight about sex. What are we allowed to post then??

ok I have read and re-read the TOS about 12-15 times, and gone back over what was said on the team board... I think the person may have overstated things a little.
Seems like the words are an issue, but mainly if they aren't censored... I think it really depends on what is said and in what context. Sorry to freak everyone out!

Great reminder, however typically warnings are not issued unless several complaints have been made.

Whew (brushing hand across my forehead) I'm glad to hear that Desiree, I would hate to think we would need to change the tone on our board it is such a fun place and everyone here is fantastic!! I'm with Leslie if we changed what would we have to talk about??(wink)
