Although we do our best to keep all systems working properly at
Hotboards.Com, we do not guarantee that the message board service
will always be "up" or that it will always function properly.
We do not guarantee that the message board service will be available
forever.
It may be
discontinued at any time. We reserve the right to delete any message
forum for any reason, including but not limited to forums containing
or linking to the following types of content:
1. Content

You understand
that the free message forum service is paid for by revenues resulting
from the sale, by Cyber Concepts Inc. of advertising space on
individual message forums and other pages in the Hotboards.Com
site.
You, the message
forum creator/administrator, may not sell advertising space on
your message board.
You agree
not to "spam" or attempt to broadcast in any
way to the message forums. This system is not designed to function
with large scale, mass postings. Such "spamming",
or attempts to "spam", will constitue an
abuse/attack of our systems and reason for legal action against
you.
We cannot
be held responsible for stopping any particular individual from
posting messages to your forum, nor can we stop or "filter
out" any specific types of materials from being submitted
to your forum, including
image links or URL's.
If you are
receiving undesired postings to your board, your best defense
is to set a posting password and
delete any undesired submissions so that they will not be displayed
on your forum.
The message
forum service is to be used according to the instructions provided
in the setup and administration portions of the system. Examples
of uses that are NOT permitted include but are not limited to:
1. Use of
the message board in a frame unless the following criteria are
met:
A. The banner
advertisement at the top of the message board must be completely
visible without having to scroll when the board loads on a 640x480
pixel screen.
B. The other
frames must not contain advertisements of any kind.
Permissible
customization of free message forums is limited to the options
expressly made available in the board setup/administration areas.
You will not attempt to hold us liable for any damages resulting
from the use or malfunction of the message forum service.
These policies
may change at any time without notice but will always be found
published within this website for the life of this service.
