============================================================================= 
 
                      Terms of Agreement for Membership 
 
Network Validation is supported and encouraged by the NC of VQNet. Sysops 
Wishing to add A particular Echo that they feel will bring in more traffic  
may do so by sending coordinator a email or netmail with the following  
information 
 
Name of echo, echo tag  qwk confnumber if qwk, any restrictions.  
 
The use of ANSI or high ascii codes, or any profanity/vulgar language in 
message taglines is STRICTLY PROHIBITED. Some users systems will crash 
if these extra codes are in the message...plus users of all ages may be 
accessing the echoes within VQNet. 
 
At times, it may become necessary for me, the NC, to ask a sysop to turn on 
network validation, restict a certain user from access to posting on 
VQNet Network, or other unforseen events.  VQNet Sysops must be willing to 
agree by my requests in the event that this becomes necessary.  
 
VQNet Sysops should NOT participate in the spreading of viruses, ansi 
bombs, or any destructive programs, and should NOT make these programs 
available for download, even if designated as such. Virus scanning of 
uploads is encouraged. 
 
VQNet Sysops should respect the privacy of their users, and should 
especially not use the priviledged information of user passwords to 
attempt to log onto other boards using a users account.  Sharing of user 
information, such as real names, address and phone numbers is allowed in 
the event of a problem user, but only with other VQNet net sysops. 
 
However, passwords should NOT be shared even with other sysops. The sharing 
of ANY information about users should NEVER be given out to anyone, except 
in the aforementioned situation of sharing bad user info with other 
VQNet sysops in order to prevent problems with VQNet or VQNet 
BBS's. This also applies to law enforcement subpeona of the user data. 
 
Flaming is not acceptable on VQNet, no matter what the echo subject is. 
No one is "holding a gun to your head" to force you to read and participate 
in the various areas. 
 
If you can't say something nice about a user in an echo, you should either 
not say anything at all...or take your "flame" to email or netmail. 
VQNet Sysops will be responsible for their users flaming, and will need 
to discipline them as they see fit. 
 
Repeated violations of the above agreement may result in termination of 
a BBS's status in VQNet without warning.
