Changes to the terms of service

Friday, July 10, 2009
By Billy Dennis

The difference is mostly clerical. The maximum upload space allowed any member blogger is 300 MB, and it’s been like that for some time. I changed the TOS, which previously set it at 25 MB. I added a line saying that the space can be increased for a fee. I haven’t determined that fee yet.

For those who have not read the TOS:

The Blog Peoria Project is a free service provided to residents of the greater Peoria, IL, area. By agreeing to the Terms of Service, you agree that:

You live in Peoria, IL., Peoria County of surrounding counties in Illinois.
You intend to use the site to operate a blog (an online journal or diary) or as a citizen journalism site.
You are a real human being, are not a ‘bot.
You are not a splogger.
You are not a Nazi, white supremacist or an agent of any Communist government or group.
You will not scrape other sites’ content.
You treat other members with simple courtesy, both on your site and theirs.
You will not demand that other bloggers change their content in any way to make it more to your liking.
You will cease leaving comments on other member bloggers’ sites immediately upon request.
You accept full responsibility for the content of your blog. You are the owner of the posts and are the editor.

In return, the owner and operator of this site agrees:

To let you blog about whatever you want.
To let you upload files no larger than 100,000 MB.
To give you 300 MB of upload space.
To give you MORE upload space for a fee.
To let you sell ads on your own site.
To not ban your visitors, unless a determination is made that it is necessary to prevent them from commenting on a blog they have been asked to to not comment at.
To let any member take their content, including uploaded posts and images, and move them to another hosting service.
To do my utmost to keep this site running properly.

You also agree that the owner and administrator on this blog can and just might change the terms of service as he sees fit.

Some rules:
  • Please try to stay on topic. I am not strict about this, but I will enforce it if the thread turns into an argument.
  • Please do not libel anyone. This is not the place to play out personal disputes.
  • Attack the position, not the person taking the position.
  • Try to use a "smiley" when joking, because irony doesn't come across well in print.
  • Comments about commenting policy are best made via email: peoriapundit AT gmail DOT com or via the Contact Page
  • IMPORTANT: Do NOT attempt to post if you have been banned from posting comments. If you successfully post a comment after you have been banned, I WILL notify your ISP that you have violated my terms of service, which probably violate the ISP's terms of service.
  • GET A GRAVATAR! Just go here, sign up with the email address you use when you make a comment, and upload a image. Need an image? Look here.
