CastleWar Anti-Spam Policy
CastleWar prohibits its Governors from using spam and other forms of Internet abuse to gain citizens or other forms of power. The definition of spam includes, but is not limited to, the following:
- Electronic mail messages addressed to a recipient with whom the initiator does not have an existing business or personal relationship or is not sent at the request of, or with the express consent of, the recipient;
- Messages posted to Usenet and message boards that are off-topic (unrelated to the topic of discussion), cross-posted to unrelated newsgroups, or posted in excessive volume;
- Solicitations posted to chat rooms, or to groups or individuals via Internet Relay Chat or "Instant Messaging" system (such as ICQ);
- Certain off-line activities that, while not considered spam, are similar in nature, including distributing flyers or leaflets on private property or where prohibited by applicable rules, regulations, or laws.
CastleWar and its staff may, at its sole discretion and with or without prior notice, undertake the following enforcement actions:
Account Suspension: Upon the receipt of a credible complaint, CastleWar may immediately, if CastleWar deems necessary, immediately and with or without notification, suspend the membership of the individual implicated in the abuse complaint. Account suspension is intended to prevent the abuser from benefiting from their abusive activities by prohibiting the offender from playing CastleWar. After a thorough investigation, if the spamming incident is verified but does not (in the descertion of CastleWar) rise to the level of a terminable offense, CastleWar may (but is not obligated to) lift the suspension.
Account Termination: Upon the receipt of a credible complaint, CastleWar may immediately terminate the membership of the individual implicated in the abuse complaint. Terminatinon results in the immediate closure of the account, and a prohibition against any future membership.
