VO Forum/Discussions

We believe that VO is a valuable place for like-minded individuals to discuss all things vampyric. Like any community, VO is most valuable when everyone follows certain basic guidelines and rules of conduct. The Terms of Service sets forth these Rules and Guidelines so that you know what is expected of you and what you can expect from other participants when using VO.

At Vampyres Only, we want the atmosphere to be fun, friendly, informative and safe, for not only members, but also the general public. If everyone follows the Terms of Service, then VO will remain a fun and informative community.

Registration

You are not obligated to register in order to access the bulk of the content that VO offers. However, registration (via provision of a valid email address, screen name and password) and login are required in order to post to the message boards and adjust user settings. Vampyres Only will handle all information received from you in accordance with Vampyres Only's Privacy Policy.

(Note: Options to hide certain fields are available in the user profile.)

Screen Name

We may refuse to grant you, and you may not use, a screen name that is already being used by someone else, impersonates another person, belongs to another person (without his or her prior consent), is vulgar or otherwise offensive, or that we reject for any other reason at our sole discretion.

Posting Content/ Sending Private Messages

Participation in the Vampryes Only website is governed by the Rules of Conduct, set forth below and incorporated herein by reference. Messages sent by the Private Messages component are subject to all rules set forth in these Terms of Service.

For content you make available on the VO website, including forum posts, reviews, stories, links and images, you grant Vampyres Only the world-wide, royalty free and non-exclusive license to reproduce and publish such content, for the sole purpose of promoting the website itself. You are in no way giving up the ownership of your material; you are simply granting us the rights to use such material to help promote VO. For example, if the media were to decide to do a story on us, and wish to include content submitted by you, you are granting us permission to allow that. If you ever decide to end your membership, all such rights and permissions that you granted us end at that time. At this point, if you choose to do so, you may request, in writing, that your content be removed from this website. This request must include explicit instructions as to what content you wish to have removed. Upon receipt of the request, to the best of our abilities, your content will be removed within 90 days.

Links

The Vampyres Only website and forum permits users to post hypertext links to content hosted and maintained by third parties. Although linked sites are not generally reviewed by Moderators, links are subject to treatment like any other type of content posted to VO. You may not include a link in VO that directs users to any content or information that, if posted to VO itself, would constitute a violation of these Terms of Service.

The linked sites are not moderated by Vampyres Only, are not under Vampyres Only's control and your access to any linked site is at your own risk. You should use your own judgment before you use any link or access any linked site. When leaving VO using any link provided by a user, you should be aware that Vampyres Only's terms and policies no longer govern, and, therefore, you should review the applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of that site. If you access a linked site and find that materials to be in violation of these Terms of Service, you may report the link as described below.

Vampyres Only makes no claim or representation regarding, and accepts no responsibility for, the quality, content, nature or reliability of sites accessible by hyperlink from VO. The ability to include links is provided only as a convenience to you, and the inclusion of any link by a user of VO does not imply affiliation, endorsement, or adoption by Vampyres Only of the linked site or any information contained therein.

Enforcement

Vampyres Only generally does not pre-screen, verify or edit the content posted by users in VO. However, Vampyres Only reserves the right to investigate any violation of the Vampyres Only Website Terms of Use and these Forum Terms of Service and to take appropriate remedial action. Vampyres Only has absolute discretion to enforce the terms of these documents, including, but not limited to warning users of violations, disabling or suspending accounts, deleting, screening or editing any content, or prohibiting any behavior that does not comply with these Terms of Service, including the Rules of Conduct, or which is otherwise inappropriate for this Forum, harmful, objectionable, or inaccurate. If it is deemed necessary to delete content for violation of the Terms of Service, the entire thread, including the original post and all replies, may be deleted. Vampyres Only Moderators generally will not edit users' submissions to remove content; however, at their sole discretion, they may request that a user edit a post to delete the objectionable content and resubmit it.

Vampyres Only also may release information concerning your use of VO (including posted content, registration information, and network records) when Vampyres Only believes release is appropriate to comply with the law (e.g., a lawful subpoena, warrant or court order); to enforce or apply Vampyres Only's the Terms of Use and these Terms of Service; to protect Vampyres Only's rights or property, or to protect Vampyres Only's users from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful use of the site; or if Vampyres Only reasonably believes that an emergency involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to any person requires disclosure of communications or justifies disclosure of records without delay.

Deliberate attempts by you or someone on your behalf to evade or circumvent your suspension or termination of your rights to use VO violates these Terms of Service, constitutes an unlawful trespass to Vampyres Only's equipment and systems, and may result in legal action.

To report violations of the Vampyres Only Terms of Service, please contact a moderator or webmaster at this website, or via our feedback form. Please include a copy of, or link to, the offending content, the author's screen name, and any other applicable information.
