RealityNET Charter
Common Goal - To allow the users of RealityNET a forum in which they are free
to express their views without censorship, or suppression by the Network. To
provide a place for intelligent discussion and/or debate on a wide variety of
topics.
Article I - Admission of Nodes
Section 1. In order to be allowed access as a functioning member of
RealityNET, a system should have been active for the previous 90 days
prior to admission. Active is defined as operating at a near constant
rate for 20 hours daily 7 days a week.
Section 2. The Sysop must agree to host 2 subs from his board on
RealityNET. The Sysop may elect to start a new sub or donate a local
sub to the Network. While gating of these subs is allowable, it is not
preferable to an exclusive RealityNET sub.
Section 3. The Sysop must agree to carry no less than 5 RealityNET
subs on his board. Of the 5, two must be the Sysop's Info Sub, and
the User Feedback Sub.
Section 4. The Sysop recognizes that while his board will maintain
sovereignty, Network subs are controlled by the Network and therefore
all NET rules apply to those subs.
Section 5. The Sysop guarantees a non-purgable, non-deletable
account to to the NC for the duration of their involvement with
RealityNET. This account should allow the NC access to UEDIT functions
for the purpose of Network business only.
Section 6. The Sysop should give the NC not less than 7 days notice
before leaving RealityNET.
Article II - Removal Of Nodes

call for an informative vote. However, only the NC can call for an
official vote. All members of the body must vote and have 2 days after
a vote is called for to do so. Repeated failure to vote is reason for
removal of voting power.
Section 5. The Sysops of RealityNET hold no voting power, however they
do hold the right to inform and help other Sysops as well as the
Officers. The Sysops hold the right to keep their respective boards
entirely sovreign and free from Network intervention.
The sysops may hold informal votes in order to show the Network officers
how they feel as well as to ensure that their views are adequately
represented by the administration.
Section 6. The host of each particular sub is in charge of topic,
discipline of users, and conversation flow on his sub. He must agree
to follow all Network rules, but other than that he is free to run his
sub as he sees fit.
Article IV - Rules and Regulations
Section 1. Warring or personal attacks will not be allowed on any sub
in RealityNET. Warring is defined as an attack on a person, rather than
an opinion. Should a sysop find a post in which warring occurs it should
be deleted immediately and the Sysop of the board from which it eminated
should warn the user and send mail to the AC, GC, or NC stating that the
user has been warned. Repeat offenders will have their access to the
Network removed.
Section 2. Censorship of ideas and thoughts is prohibited on RealityNET
subs. No post is to be deleted or edited because of an objectionable
idea or thought.
Section 3. No user has the implicit right to RealityNET. Access can be
taken away from all users.
Section 4. No sub is to be gated to or from RealityNET without the
