IMPORTANT:
We reserve the right to lock topics or remove and/or edit posts in the enforcement of the following policies and the rules and requirements of ProBoards, our host. Further, we reserve the right to ban anyone temporarily or permanently in enforcement of these policies.
Content judged to be in violation of national or local laws will be immediately removed without prior notice.
The purpose of the Memory Omicron board is to create a shared fictional continuity set within the Star Trek fictional universe.
Star Trek and related marks are trademarks of CBS Studios Inc. The content of this board is believed to be acceptable under the policies of CBS Studios Inc., and prior Paramount Pictures policies, toward fan-produced fiction, artwork, and photomanipulations set in the Star Trek universe. Material judged to be in violation of copyrights and/or trademarks held by CBS Studios Inc. will be immediately removed without prior notice.
Other materials posted on this board are believed to be permitted under copyright laws according to the doctrine of "Fair Use." If you object to any content on Memory Omicron, please contact: donaldmck@gmail.com
Materials believed to be in violation of existing copyrights, trademarks, servicemarks, or other intellectual property laws may be removed without prior notice.
Religion and politics are topics off limits in the 602 Club. Topics deemed to be religious and/or political in nature outside of the scope of the Star Trek fictional universe will be automatically removed without prior notice. The Port Master (Admin) is instituting this policy to avoid conflict between the religious and non-religious and the conservative and liberal members of this forum. Please go to another forum if you wish to discuss religion and/or politics outside of the Star Trek fictional universe.
Announcements of the death of a celebrity or public person are permitted in the 602 Club. However, messages praising, condemning, missing, or other expressions of judgment concerning the contributions or value of the deceased celebrity or public person are not permitted and will be automatically edited without prior notice. The Port Master is instituting this policy to avoid conflict between members who hold differing religious and/or political beliefs and opinions.
Adult images, stories, and humor are not permitted on this forum and are contrary to the rules of ProBoards hosting this board. Think of going no higher than PG-13 or TV-14 in the ratings for the sex, language, and/or violence content of your stories or photomanipulations. Remember that you are writing fan fiction and creating photomanipulations set in the Star Trek fictional universe. You should be respectful of the spirit of Star Trek in providing family-friendly entertainment. If you wish to write slash fiction, adult stories/erotica, or create topless or nude photomanipulations, you will have to find another board to post these materials. Posts containing material deemed to be adult or mature in nature will be automatically removed without prior notice to allow this board to continue to use the hosting services of ProBoards.
Insults, personal attacks, abuse, rudeness, or posts designed to anger and/or provoke will not be tolerated. Expect these topics to be locked to allow members a cooling-off period. Depending on the nature of the post, the Port Master or moderators may issue a written warning or a temporary or a permanent ban from this board.
Be respectful and polite toward other members. If you disagree with someone, do so gracefully. Being nasty, insulting, or intolerant toward someone will only result in a written warning or a temporary or a permanent ban from the board. Remember that the intention of this board is to have fun and create Star Trek fan fiction and photomanipulations. If someone posts something that upsets you, consider for a moment if you want your message to be seen by all members and all Internet users for years to come. Think before you post.
Spam, trolling, flaming, racial, religious, or ethnic slurs, and discussion of software, music, or other piracy are not tolerated and will be immediately removed without prior notice.
Please leave the moderating to the moderators. While a quick "I'm not a Mod, but maybe you should look at the rules." from a single person is okay, it is not acceptable for additional individuals to write posts in agreement or disagreement. If you see a post that you have issues with the content, the best way to handle it is to PM a Mod or Admin, or use the report post button. Please give the Mod or Admin sufficient time to respond. It is not your place to attack the poster for the content of his or her post or enforce board rules and/or policies.
No one has a right to the last word. If a Mod/Admin tells you to move along and you continue to post in the same manner, expect a three day ban, and to have your “last word” post deleted. If you have a problem with a post use the “report this post” button, or contact a Mod or Admin.
If a signature is inappropriate (violating any of the rules above), it may be removed by an admin without notice. If you continually have inappropriate signatures, expect to lose the privilege.
The Port Master and moderators will act as they see fit to preserve a friendly atmosphere on Memory Omicron. If you disagree with a moderator's call, contact them via PM. Do not start a debate about it in the forums. Doing so will result in a warning. Also, don't get into a long PM debate with a moderator. They will explain their call, but if that isn't enough for you, expect the moderator to forward further PMs to the Port Master.
If you have doubts that your post violates forum policies, don't post it. Instead PM a moderator.
It is the intention of the Port Master to institute a policy to handle creative disagreements among members that is fair and balanced. The Port Master also intends to work with the membership to create editorial and style standards for the content and quality of stories, artwork, and photomanipulations.
It is expected that all members will make a reasonable effort to ensure correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation of their posts. We reserve the right to modify posts to correct spelling, grammar, and/or punctuation errors. Members who do not make a reasonable effort in these areas in our judgment may be subject to temporary or permanent ban.
We reserve the right to edit and/or modify stories to adhere to style and content guidelines of Memory Omicron and to ensure continuity and consistency in this shared fictional universe.
We reserve the right to re-title topics, merge topics, and move posts within the board.
If you have any questions or issues with these policies, contact Triton by PM or at:
