Purpose

The IndianaMarching.com Discussion Forums area exists to serve as a forum for rational and intellectual discussion regarding the Indiana Marching Band Activity and other related mediums.

Conduct

You agree, through your use of the IM.com Community and Discussion Forums, that you will not post any material which is false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise in violation of ANY law. You also agree not to post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or you have consent from the owner of the copyrighted material. This also includes discussion in regards to selling, purchasing, trading, or any other method of obtaining such copyrighted materials illegally including, but not limited to: MP3's, CD's, Videos, DVD's, Bootleg Audio Recordings, etc. Additionally, any spam, flooding, advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, or solicitations are also inappropriate to the IM.com Community. Trolling is also strictly prohibited. An internet "troll" is a person who posts outrageous and generally negative messages as bait with the sole purpose of luring people into responding. Trolls are known for creating discord on internet forums, and inspiring flaming rhetoric and provoking conversation. Registering multiple accounts is also prohibited within the IM.com Community.

Please remember that while we do attempt to monitor the posted messages as closely as possible through the efforts of our staff, it is impossible to monitor content on an up-to-the-minute basis with such a large community. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any information presented, and we will attempt to filter any information deemed to be posted deliberately to mislead any group or individual. Additionally, the messages express the views of the author, not necessarily the views of the IM.com Staff or Moderators. Anyone who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to notify a moderator of this forum immediately. We have the rights to remove objectionable content if we determine that removal is necessary. This is a manual process, however, so please realize that we may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately. This policy goes for member profile information as well.

You remain solely responsible for the content of your messages at all times, and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless this forum, and any related websites to this forum. We at the IM.com Discussion Forums also reserve the right to reveal your identity (or any information we have about you) in the event of a complaint or legal action arising from any information posted by you.

Registration

You have the ability, as you register, to choose your username. We advise that you keep the name appropriate. With your user account, you agree to never give your password out to another member, for your protection and for validity reasons. You also agree to NEVER use another member's account to post messages or browse this forum, and to edit your profile after registration is completed and specify your FULL NAME and other required fields. Failure to do so may result in immediate termination of your account. Any information we deem inaccurate or vulgar within these detailed fields will also be promptly removed.

Communication

You acknowledge that IndianaMarching.com may send periodic e-mails to all of our users notifying them of current or important upcoming events or site updates, advertisement messages generated from our sponsors or those who advertise with them, as well as merchandise specials being run within the IndianaMarching.com website and/or IME Network. Content is not limited to the above mentioned. Additionally, we will NEVER sell your e-mail address or personal information to ANY third party company or companies outside of our sponsorship scope. Your security is always our number one priority.

Please note that with each post, your IP address is recorded in the event that you need to be banned from the IM.com Community or your ISP contacted. This will only happen in the event of a major and severe violation of this agreement.

Privilege

Before participating, it is important to keep in mind that the use of the IndianaMarching.com Community is a privilege, not a right. As a privately owned entity, the moderation team at IndianaMarching.com reserves the right to revoke that privilege at his or her discretion from any individual at any time without notice. Please remember that we can not have a rule for everything, and because of unique situations or a few people who may abuse our forums or cause other problems (even if it is such a situation not listed in the rules), the IndianaMarching.com moderation team reserves the right to react to these issues in any way necessary to remedy the issue and to minimize any negative impact within our Community.

Conclusion

The bottom line is this: the IndianaMarching.com Community exists to provide a fun, friendly, and intelligent atmosphere for all ages. With a little maturity and respect for others and their organizations and/or affiliations, this Community will be an enjoyable environment for everyone. Happy posting!
