To post messages to this message board you must register as a member. This registration is free of charge. By registering, you agree to abide by the following terms & conditions (house rules):
1. When you register, you must choose a unique user name and you must provide a unique, valid e-mail address. Choose your user name carefully, you may not use names that are offensive or suggest illegal activities. The use of any such names will be blocked from posting on the message board. Duplicate user names and e-mail addresses are not allowed, so if the name or address you enter is already in use, you will be prompted to choose another one. [Note that we may choose to use the member’s real name rather than user names to identify them as the posters of messages within the message board.]
2. To prevent any member from using another user's user name, each member’s account is password protected with e-mail verification. When you register, a randomly generated password will be sent to the e-mail address you provide. Once you have received your password, you may edit your profile to change it to one of your choice. You may also change the e-mail address in your profile. HOWEVER, if you do, a new, randomly generated password will be sent to that address. Entering an invalid e-mail address will cause your user name to become unusable by anyone, INCLUDING YOURSELF, until the information in your account is manually corrected by a moderator or administrator.
3. NTU, at its own discretion, may bar registration from any specific e-mail service, ISP or IP Address.
4. Any message posted on our message board expresses only the views of the author of the message and does not necessarily reflect the views of NTU or any other person or entity. NTU uses moderators and administrators to monitor the content and appearance of messages posted on our board. However, considering the real-time nature of this bulletin board, it is impossible for us to monitor or review every message. Therefore, you agree that neither NTU, nor any person or entity associated with them, will be held responsible for the contents, accuracy, completeness or validity of any information posted on the board.
5. You agree that you will not use our message board to post any material, or links to any material, which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, encourages illegal activity or otherwise in violation of any law.
6. You agree that you will not post any copyrighted material without the express permission of the copyright holder, unless such copyright is owned by you. Advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, and solicitations are also inappropriate on this message board.
7) You must respect the privacy of individuals. There must be no posting of telephone numbers, addresses or any other personal information.
8) Spamming is not permitted. You must keep all your messages as constructive as possible and on topic. You may post pictures but they must not be explicit, offensive or copyrighted.
7. We have the ability to edit and/or remove objectionable messages. Any user who believes that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to contact us immediately by e-mail at messageboards@ntu.ac.uk. Upon receipt of such notification, we will make every effort to take such action as we deem necessary within a reasonable period of time. Since this is a manual process, you are advised that we may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately.
8. NTU reserves the right to edit or delete any message for any reason whatsoever, at our sole discretion. You agree that you are solely responsible for the content of your messages, and that you will indemnify and hold harmless NTU and their agents and employees with respect to any claim based upon the appearance and/or transmission of your message(s).
9. In the event of any complaint or legal action arising from any message posted by you, NTU reserves the right to reveal your identity and any other information we may know about you.
