Membership Agreement
By becoming a member of Seacouver Playground I, [John Rizo] promise to abide by and uphold the regulations and guidelines in this membership agreement and of the community.
By becoming a member of this community:
•I, [John Rizo] realize that I must sign this membership agreement within one week (7 days) of joining Seacouver Playground . If I do not sign the agreement within the seven (7) day time frame, my membership is subject to termination unless I give a valid reason (tragedy, emergency, computer availability issue, etc.). However, if I am able to send my full profile in, I realize that I am able to sign this agreement, and should do so before completing any other task.
By signing this agreement I am stating that I will familiarize myself with past Chronicles (and thereby familiarizing myself with the game's history) and the current characters in play and that I am agreeing to the following terms:
•I agree to complete the Profile template for my character and submit it and any required pictures for approval within seven (7) days of joining Seacouver Playground. If I cannot submit a Profile within the seven (7) day period I must contact the Moderators to request an extension.
•I agree that once my character's profile has been posted I will be given the link to the chat room (“key to the Sandbox”) and that I am not to give that link out to anyone.
•I agree that once my character's profile has been accepted it is my responsibility to create a story line to introduce my character (unless one the Moderators tell me otherwise)
•I realize that what I have contributed (character information, pictures, quotes and messages) belongs to me, and I [John Rizo] realize that I may request for these to be taken down upon my willing departure.
•I realize that if I am no longer interested in being a part of the community, that I am free to leave at any point with MOST (history, family arrangement, pictures and quotes) of the information that I have contributed.
•I realize that anything that the Moderator has created (anything marked with a copyright symbol including profile outlines, character descriptions and outlines, rules, dictionaries, quotes, character profiles and so on), belongs solely to them, and that I am not to remove it from this community.
•I realize that if I claim a cannon character that has been previously in play that I must abide by the character's history and relationships established by the previous player.
•I am to respect the rights, feelings, and wishes of others in the community.
•I realize that even though this is a game, there are real people behind the characters and screen who have feelings, that I must respect, and take into consideration at all times.
•I realize that if I do decide to invite a friend (as much as the Moderator is against this...) I am responsible for their actions, and I am not to complain if their membership is terminated, however; I have the right to discuss the situation with the Moderator. If I give the Moderator a hard time about the decision, I am also subject to membership termination.
•I realize that the Moderator has the right to change this agreement when she so chooses, and that I am to fill out the most recent copy of this membership agreement.
•I realize that though the Moderator reserves the right to change this agreement at anytime, I am allowed at least twenty four hours notice to read over the agreement before I sign.
•I realize that the rules will most likely not be changed, and that I am to abide by new and old rules for the duration of my stay on the community.
•I realize that if I need time away from the group and the game, and I am ABLE (barring injury, tragedy, travel without computer access, family change/emergency), I will let the Moderator know that I will not be present for a certain amount of time. I also realize that during this absence, my profile, pictures, quotes, and other things that I have contributed will remain safe unless I:
•Do not give notice that I am leaving. If this is the case, my material will be deleted in sixty (60) days. However; I am entitled to a week's notice before this occurs.
•Let the Moderator know that I would like the items that I have contributed to be taken down until my return.
•Am banned from the community. In the event that this happens, my material will NOT be returned to me.
•I realize that if I am banned, the ban is life long, and I will not be let back into the community under any circumstances.
I have agreed to these terms on [January 1, 2008] at [11:43], and will abide by, and uphold them for the duration of my stay on the community.
[John Rizo], e-signature.
