Sorry guys my main user just got this and there basically telling me to back off or be fucked, so im out :) ================================== Dear (XXXXXXXX), We have been notified that a user on your terminal has been breaking into the WebTV Daily Service, a special service offered to selected previewers. Please be aware that this type of behavior is in direct violation of the WebTV Terms of Service: "4.3 Inappropriate or Unauthorized Usage. You agree not to use the WebTV Network for any commercial or business purpose or in any manner that does or would have a tendency to injure or harm any individual or which disrupts the normal use of the WebTV Network or the Internet by other users. In the event WNI determines that you have engaged in any inappropriate or unauthorized usage, you may receive an e-mail warning or have your account temporarily suspended or, at WNI's sole discretion, terminated. Be advised that certain unauthorized usage or transmissions of e-mail or chat which contain commercial solicitations (spam), admissions of illegal behavior, pornography or other illicit information may subject you to the assessment of additional fees, fines or charges, the suspension or termination of your account and/or civil or criminal liability. Without limit to the foregoing, no user may and you agree not to use the WebTV Network or its services (i) for any commercial or business purpose; (ii) to make unauthorized attempts to access, use, change, disrupt, shut off or clog the systems, networks or accounts of others; (iii) to send unsolicited messages, chain letters, surveys, advertising, promotional materials or commercial solicitations to third parties (spamming) or to send e-mail for any purpose other than personal communication; (iv) to provide a minor access to inappropriate Materials without the consent of the minor's parent or guardian or to attempt to engage any minor in any context not specifically approved by the minor's parent or guardian; (v) to collect together a listing or directory of WebTV subscribers or, if any directory of WebTV subscribers is made available, to use, copy or provide to any person or entity (whether or not for a fee) such listing or directory or any portion thereof other than for personal, non-commercial purposes; (vi) to falsely purport to be a WNI employee or agent or to falsely assume the ident! ! ! ! ity of any other individual or entity; or (vii) to act or fail to act, in your use of the WebTV Network, in a manner that is contrary to applicable law or regulation." We are now hereby sending you your first and only warning: continuation of the inappropriate behavior shall result in the immediate and final termination of your WebTV account. You will lose all further privilege of access to the WebTV Network. You agreed to comply with the Terms of Service when you signed up with the WebTV Network and, as such, we count on your (and others') conformance with the Terms to make WebTV Network a widely accepted and respected service. Additional complaints of your violation of the Terms would leave WebTV Networks with no alternative but to cancel your account. In addition, WebTV will comply with requests from any law enforcement authority requesting information about your violating behavior, should such actions be deemed to be violations of any civil or criminal law and you will be subject to all such resulting liability. In the event that the termination of your WebTV account is required by your continued abuse of the Terms of Service and "netiquette", your account will be terminated and notification of such termination will be sent to you via registered mail. There will be no further warnings. Your help in making WebTV Networks an enjoyable place for all members is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, WebTV Compliance Manager
