Please read this Agreement carefully. This is a legal document, and failure to abide by it may result in cancellation of your Multicom-4 account. Multicom-4 Data Services, Inc. Membership Agreement May 1995 In consideration for the use of the Multicom-4 BBS Network (the "System"), and the efforts of Multicom-4 Data Services, Inc. ("Multicom-4") and its Board of Directors (the "Board") to develop and maintain the System, I understand and agree to the following: 1. That the use of the System is a privilege which may be revoked by the Board of Directors of the System at any time for abusive conduct or fraudulent use. Such conduct would include, but not be limited to, the placing of unlawful information on the system, the use of obscene, abusive or otherwise objectionable language in either public or private messages, or violation of this Agreement. The Board of Multicom-4 Data Services, Inc. will be the sole arbiter of what constitutes obscene, abusive, or objectionable language. 2. That Multicom-4 reserves the right to review any material stored in files or programs to which other Members have access and will edit or remove any material which the Board, in its sole discretion, believes may be unlawful, obscene, abusive, or otherwise objectionable. 3. That all information services and features contained on the System are intended for the private use of its patrons, and any commercial or unauthorized use or publication of those materials, in any form, is expressly forbidden. 4. That all information contained on the System is placed there for general informational and entertainment purposes and is, in no way, intended to refer or be applicable to any specific person, case, or situation. 5. That Multicom-4 and its Board does NOT warrant that the functions of this system will meet any specific requirements I may have; nor that it will be error free or uninterrupted; nor shall it be liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages (including lost data, information or profits) sustained or incurred in connection with the use of, operation of, or inability to use the system. 6. To abide by such rules and regulations of system usage as may be set down from time to time by the Board of Multicom-4. 7. In consideration for the privilege of using the System and in consideration for having access to the information contained on it, I hereby release Multicom-4, its Board of Directors and operators, and any institutions with which they are affiliated, for any and all claims of any nature arising from my use, or inability to use, Multicom-4. 8. To indemnify Multicom-4 and its Board for any loss suffered to them by reason of my improper use of the System, and to compensate anyone harmed by my abusive use of the system. 9. That the information provided on the System is offered as a community service and is not a substitute for individual professional consultation. Adequate professional guidance for making important personal decisions cannot be provided through an electronic format of this type. Advice on individual problems should be obtained personally from a professional. I agree: (1) that I understand this Agreement; (2) that by using the System, I am not seeking to establish a doctor/patient, lawyer/client, or similar relationship with any of the Information Providers or other Members; and (3) that the Information Providers and Multicom-4 can rely on my promises in this paragraph (and elsewhere on this form) as an inducement to provide information on the System. 10. That I will not allow another person to use my Member ID and Password; nor will I attempt to obtain or use more than one Member ID, except as authorized in special circumstances by Multicom-4. 11. All registered Members of Multicom-4 must provide accurate information on their application forms. Failure to provide accurate information may result in denial of system access. Willful misrepresentation or deliberate attempts to conceal or forge information may result in legal action against you. Multicom-4 is supported by your donations: Multicom-4 is a community-based communication and information system. Although it is a free system to use, it is not free to run. Please give generously to keep this service free and accessible to everyone in our community. Multicom-4 is a non-profit corporation and any donation that you make will be used to improve the quality of our service. No donation is too small, or too large... we suggest $25 as a good place to start.
