Do you think Common Ground should have a TOS?

Based on the idiotic TOS we've been discussing, how about one for the "discriminating" Common Grounder?

Winner gets to use one of the "Crank's best of the worst" Avatars...

Yes, and what about my chocolate, Parker? I see no mention of it in your TOS.

LOVE IT, COASTAL!!

That's the way, uh-huh uh-huh, I like it! Uh-huh!

I vote that these should be our TOS with one addition: We retain the right to change, alter, add, remove and generally trash these TOS at any point without notice to our membership. That's what I want added and Coastal can make it sound really legal.

uh-huh

Overriding Policy

The single overriding policy of Common Ground and this Terms of Use Agreement is to let you know that Francine is the Queen, Robb is the one true Duck, and Crank can be bought. Cheap!

Members of the MIB and other roving human trash who harass, defame, attack, and seek to damage others will keep in mind that the truth can set you free.

It could be the TOS of the Outback. Hell, if we really wanted to make an ant-farm like them, we could have TOS written for every single board.

Oops, I think I just gave Et. Al. another idea. I can smell the rubber burning stench of the wheels from up above as they think it over from here.
