Well did ya?

There was only one little part that I wasn't thrilled with but you can't really blame larry for a little CYA.

You shall remain solely liable for the Content you upload or transmit to any Forum, message board, or any interactive areas on the Site. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless MacResource Forums and/or Price.com from any claim, action, demand, loss, expense or damages -including attorneys' fees- made or incurred by any third party arising out of or relating to your conduct, your violation of these terms and conditions, or your violation of any rights of a third party. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more users, you release MacResource Forums and/or Price.com -and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries and employees- from claims, demands and damages -actual and consequential- of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.



I'm not a lawer but if I'm reading this right it means that if somebody here goes "postal" and starts stalking you, harassing you, holds your family for ransom or whatever you can't blame Macresources and sue them.
Likewise if you misbehave here and somebody comes after you with an Attorney you can't come after Larry and the gang to pay your bills.


So behave yourself and everything will be fine!

Thats what Harry Whittington thought.

I didn't.

Yes.

If Larry wants my first-born, I'll help with one way transportation.

Yes, I read it.

The line that "Stuffed Shirt" used in advising me was curiously missing, and would really help establish a more civilized tone:

"State your opinions, and keep your comments about other members, or references TO them, OUT OF YOUR POSTS."

billb, that killed. Nice work.

Also looks like if you follow someone's (bad) advice on the forum, you can't sue Macresource.

legally, anything on line you sign and agree to, can't hold up in court.
think about it

If there are spelling issues, please pardon, Owen the cat is sitting on my keyboard.

I read it. But if I recall, it would serve as a legally binding contract right?

I'm not 18. I'm not bound to the TOS. Or at least under the current circumstances.

Just because it has two clutches, shifts faster, uses a torque converter or has near-infinite gear ratios, requires less driver intervention and is more efficient doesn't make it better in my opinion.

Did I actually read what?

Oh wait, I need to finish your subject line.

Don't ask who the bell's for, dude. It's you.

I skimmed it. Comprehended, but retained no memory of it.

rv, Stuffed Shirt's advice is great and it would be wonderful if everyone heeded it. And more power to you if you do so. However, being only advice, I guess it doesn't really fit in a TOS (unfortunately).

Why not just post it as a subhead under "Friendly Political Ranting?"

Just to be clear:

"You agree to indemnify" macresource forums means that if someone sues them over your conduct, that you will join in the lawsuit on behalf of the macresource forum, and defend them, including hiring an attorney for them. At least that is what "indemnify" usually means (and I am not an insurance company lawyer).

I only read as far as the part about the free 60 gb video iPod. I then checked that selection and clicked submit. Who else selected "free iPod" before clicking the submit button?

"In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion." (1987) -- Carl Sagan

as i understand it, as these TOS and the like go, it still doesn't protect a company from being sued if they are negligent. For example, if you go parasailing and crash, etc. due to the company's negligence...it doesn't matter what you signed..

at least, that's what I was told...

Yes, I read the thing.
