1. Advertising of any kind is not permitted at this site unless you are a sponsor. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, click here. This includes mentioning manufacturers, dealers, etc
in the forums or through LawnSite.com e-mail or private messaging. You are also not permitted to include phone numbers addresses, fax numbers, e-mail addresses, or web addresses or links in your posts, e-mail, private messages or signature lines.
OK now this would apply to all the websites some members have on their signature. This also applies to when someone asks where to buy mail order parts and goods. Any mention outside the list of sponsors. Looking for an Exmark? can't list a dealer, for that would be advertising for the dealer not Exmark.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13. You are not permitted to use LawnSite.com to spam members for any reasons. This includes advertising products or services, promotion of a web site or another Green Industry Forum. LawnSite.com will exercise its rights under the law to pursue legal action in regard to this matter
Part of this rule is already inclusive with rule #1. And it lacks adequate explanation of "Spamming" of which is intermingled in rule #1 Basicaly this rule is repititous

LOL
So it's OK for me to mention say Gemplers to order work gloves
Meanwhile in rule #1 it clearly states
"This includes mentioning manufacturers, dealers, etc in the forums or through LawnSite.com e-mail or private messaging."
Further more. How can you possibly restrict a private email or message? It is private. You censor a mode of communication that is deemed "private" it is against the law regardless if you are providing the ways and means. You include the term "Private" it is then clearly that "Private"
And 4 and 6 can be included to one rule.

4 - 6 - 10 and 11
Can be grouped into one rule
There is no desperate need to seperate them. Each of those rules pertain to posting. But that is the first in more than 15 years have seen a site mention exploitation of minors, an ISP yes. How it pertains to LS I'm not sure. Or even why?
Oh and uh....................this is not baiting, nothing I have done in this thread can be catagorized as such.
Thanks for the loaner shoes, but I won't be needing them......

I hear ya Sean
But it does go by the word.
"Private" is just that.
Now if was worded "email through this site or direct messaging is subject to the same rules". Then you have a legal right to monitor and censor as you would the forums.
Where the rules say that the mode of communication is "Private" there is no interperatation. It does have a bearing in the courts. Thus rules do not apply.
For if someone reports it. And if action is taken to revoke ones membership based on that, then it is no longer "private" as stated in your TOS. Justified legal action can be taken against the party enforcing the revokation
Provide the ability to report messages that violate ROC, the termininology "private" does not exist and should not based on the definition of the word. There is not or any implyed interperatation of the word.

Yes that is true
This is not a public site. It is a private enterprise. And that holds more weight being that membership is free.
A paid membership a course of actions needs to be taken and notice given. No different than a country club and it's bylaws.
The paid is irrelevent, worthy of mentioning though.
