Personal Message System - Usage Policy

TreeBay

The PM Policy

bonsaiTALK Community incorporates a Personal Messaging (PM) system to provide Community members with the facility to communicate informally outside the scope of a typical forum / thread interaction. This policy defines acceptable use of the system.

A. ELIGIBILITY & FEATURES

1. As a member of our Community you may use the PM system to communicate text messages to designated individuals. The use of attachments (photos, etc) is not currently supported by PM.
2. Each member who chooses to use PM privileges will have a "mailbox" of fixed size that can be used to store read and unread messages and arrange them into folders.
3. For more details about the use and functions of the PM system, see the FAQ link at the top of this page.

B. AMUSEMENT ONLY - NO WARRANTY OR REMEDY

1. bonsaiTALK makes no warranty concerning the functionality of this service, the loss or interruption of communications, or offers any remedy.
2. Users are advised not to use the system for important or sensitive, private communications.
3. bonsaiTALK makes no promise that personal messages will reach their intended recipient, nor guarantees they will arrive in a timely fashion.
4. bonsaiTALK reserves the right to discontinue use of the service to any user, at any time, for any reason, and without warning.

C. Unacceptable Uses of the Personal Messaging System**

The following are considered abuse of the PM system

1. Criminal activities of any kind;
2. Harassment; including threats or abuse of any kind.
3. Gambling, chain letters or pyramid schemes;
4. Spam; unwanted advertising of goods, services or sites.
5. Any broadcast communications of any kind; for example, while it is fine to share a link with a friend or to request help from a user, it is not acceptable to use the PM system to solicit donations, memberships or favors from multiple individuals in a similar manner.

**bonsaiTALK will cooperate with law enforcement authorities in the investigation of criminal activity and may investigate and pursue disciplinary measures, including account suspension or termination, for breaches of this PM policy.

If you have any questions about this PM policy or wish to report a violation, please forward relevant comments to a moderator.

It has come to my attention that we may have a Personal Message SPAMmer in our ranks. Please contact me or another Mod if you have received unsolicited PMs. HINT: you can simply forward any unsolicited messages straight to the Mods by hitting the 'Forward' button, and typing "TreeBay; Joanie; Ian_Homer; FlyBri; Pootsie" into the recipient box.

Thanks.

Fly.
