rumblesushi i am only concerned because ive never seen anything like it - especially the bit about corporate partners - on this kind of site..... i mean it just made me think 'so how are these guys making money off all of this free stuff?'

seriously i think the owner of the site can clear it all up..... and if youre trying to make money with it theres nothing wrong with that -- thats perfectly american... if thats the case though theres also nothing wrong with being up front about it.......

Um........ nevermind...........
 
Most of the member agreement seems like standard boilerplate to me with one notable exception--the $5,000 liquidated damages clause. That doesn't worry me though, because I have no intention of getting banned and then re-registering under an alias. Also, such a clause is likely legally unenforceable for two reasons: 1) the liquidated damages amount bears no relation to the probable amount of actual damage, if any, suffered by the site due to a banned member re-registering under an alias and 2) many of the members of this site, as with any online forum, are minors who are, as a matter of law, incompetent to enter into a binding agreement. That said, there's nothing to worry about, folks. :)

Again ,standard legal stuff to protect the Website and the owner of the site. This legalese came from a standard template from the board . This was not made up to take advantage of our members.

You have got to be kidding me. Man i wasnt born yesterday

Also, its such a coincidence that moderators from other sites just "happened " to stumble on this thread. Coincidence? I think not.
 
personally i like the 5,000$ fine statement... it will help keep out the people who dont need to be here

i just dont have a 'love it or hate it' attitude about things - i think that i could really grow to love mfk but its like when you are buying a car and there is one small problem with the a/c... you have it fixed and you go on loving your new car......

that is where i am right now at mfk..... i just want this one problem fixed. im not trying to cause trouble and i think its very generous of the admins to have free raffles - even though ap does too without that in their agreement.......

From all the replies of everyone here so far from both staff and members, you can see that the agreement isn't a problem. No one else here has a problem with it but you.
It's only a problem to you if you make it a problem.

If you want to compare it to a car, I'll do the same. When buying a car, If you have a problem with it then you simplys just dont buy it and walk away. If you already have a problem with the car and still go ahead and buy it, then that is something you have to live with. Same goes for MFK. The agreement stays. If you don't like it then we are in no way twisting your arm and forcing you to join.
