* Bob's Bored General Policies and Rules as of June 1991
+ May be revised at any time.
. The following items are GUIDELINES, not laws, but should be followed.
If rules are broken, I usually give you another chance, but if it gets
to be a problem, I will have to take disciplinary action.
. Users who don't call in 30 days will be deleted.
. NO user on this BBS shall allow any person other than themselves to use
their logon. Such third-party logons are usually treated with a warning,
followed by deletion if the action continues. A good way to avoid this
is a) don't tell anyone your password and b) change it if you think that
someone knows your password.
. Piracy and trading of commercial programs is not endorsed by this BBS
or the Niagara Area Sysops Association. If it seems to good to be free,
it probably is. If you're not sure if a piece of software you want to
upload is commercial, don't bother uploading it.
. Membership details, such as time limits, download limits, and certain
other privileges may be changed or revoked at any time.
. Participation is required! Users are required, by morals and BBS standards,
to participate in message base conversation, and to upload once in a while.
. Please don't hog the BBS. Please limit your peak-hour logons. Remember
how it feels to sit and auto-dial forever. Consider how easy it would be
if everyone helped.
. Don't drop carrier. It's not difficult to log off! Simply hanging up
on the BBS or while in a door or file transfer can do harm to the system,
and may get you in trouble.
. It's a good idea to only page the sysop when it's REALLY important,
otherwise, write a message.
. Sysop and Co-Sysop reserve the right to read, reply and/or delete any
message or messages on the system, for any reason.
. Sysop shall not be responsible for hardware/software compatibility problems.
You use this system under the knowledge that in computers, things don't
always work. Line noise, software compatibility, et cetera, is up to you.
. BBS ads are to go ONLY in the BBS Ads (aka BBS News, DATCOM) conference.
All other BBS ads not in this area will be DELETED, unless you got previous
permission to misplace your ad.
. Uploads: Hard drive space is at a premium, so if you've seen it on another
area board, don't bother uploading it. SoundBlaster/AdLib related files
are ALWAYS welcome!. Please NO GIF Files, as they consume so much hard
drive space and when you think about it, they are really useless.
