What Unmoderated means

[Administration]

In order to address some incidents within this area.

What Unmoderated means:

1) We allow great latitude in the rules of engagement between posters. 

What Unmoderated isn't:

1) It isn't a license for any and every thing.  Certain Zone standards still apply.

No libel, pornography, copyright violations, advertising, links to other forums etc..

As usual, the GMods and Admins make the calls and if you have any complaints, issues, or questions regarding the management/rules etc. of these forums remember they are to be addressed by PM or e-mail ( admin@dailynuisanceproductions.com ) in a civil manner with members of administration and not on the forums.  No exceptions.

As usual, if you have any personal complaints/issues regarding members posts/actions remember to use the Report to Moderator button.

Thank you,

Since there seems to be some ongoing concern regarding language, some sexual references, and anything else along those lines that are permitted in this area, we'd like to remind everyone that none are forced to participate in this unmoderated area.  There are plenty of areas here at the Zone where the "Be Nice!" rule applies. 

If you no longer wish to have access to this unmoderated area, please contact the administrators via private message, or send an email to admin@dailynuisanceproductions.com

In order to continue to attempt to help our new members work through some of the issues here in the unmoderated area, we'd like to point out the following from our original post in this thread:

What Unmoderated isn't:

1) It isn't a license for any and every thing.  Certain Zone standards still apply.

No libel, pornography, copyright violations, advertising, links to other forums etc..

Making posts that overtly accuse others of posting from work, and thus directly accusing them of stealing from their employers, is libelous and defamatory, and is a direct violation of the above.  Please be aware of the distinction between posts that are crude or insulting, and those that are clearly libelous.  Libel will never be permitted on any of the boards here at The Unknown Zone, whether they're moderated or not.

As we continue to grow and embrace new membership, it has not escaped our attention that some seem to be encountering a bit of a challenge in adhering to the TOS that apply to all areas.

The Unknown Zone exists as a place within which all adults can express themselves, exchange ideas, and discuss them at the whim of the membership, and the Unknown Zone Team is here to assure that the whole process remains within the confines of the TOS.

Yes, there are areas within which the expectations differ, but we feel it is important at this juncture to remind everyone that the TOS apply within all areas of the Unknown Zone.

Our goal is to provide each of our members with an experience that is enjoyable to them, and that is the reason for the various expectations in certain areas. At times there will be differing opinions on a given subject, as one would expect with a membership without boundaries, and our hope is that when these challenges arise and the corresponding emotions with them, that all members will exercise good judgment in their respective responses.

This is not to say that the UZT frowns on lively or emotional banter or discussions, in fact we encourage it. This message is meant to be a reminder to all that each of us should exercise good judgment in our replies and responses, and to try to be as accommodating as possible when engaging in an emotional exchange.

No one on the UZT wants to censor anyone or engage in restrictions of membership, and we will make every effort to provide more than reasonable opportunity for all members to correct their mistakes in judgment or decisions made in the heat of the moment. However, remember that the UZT is here and it is our call surrounding what constitutes a violation of TOS; and in those rare cases wherein we must take steps to enforce the TOS, we will do so with compassion and discretion at the forefront of our effort.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact a team member via PM, the report to moderator button, or via e-mail. 

Happy Posting!

Making accusations of child molestation against anyone, even public figures, is libel and libel is never tolerated anywhere on the Unknown Zone or any DNP site.
