Xenharmonic Wiki talk:Terms of Service

We just went and made this. Because when you sign up for an account, it asks you to agree to this page, and this page was blank. lol.

Wording is from one-on-one back and forths I've had with Kite, Jacob, Stephen W.

Then was OKed by site co-hoster Mike B. And he helped clarify the language.

When I've brought up before on the Facebook Xen Wiki group about adding something like this, people who don't have much skin in the game (non-editors and rarely-editors) SCREECHED at me and called me all kinds of names.

So I talked to people who actually add a lot to this wiki, discussed it one on one, and came up with this.

If you're not one of the people involved in this, Please do not edit the TOS page, especially the Legal section. Instead please offer suggestions on this Discussion page.

Anyone who thinks it's overkill, and "the rules go without saying", they don't. Users who cause strife on any wiki invariably say something "WHO SAYS I CAN'T ACT LIKE THIS?" then you can point to the TOS. The troll who inspired these rules actually said that to people.

The site owners also added this function: to sign up for an account on the Wiki, now have to have your email approved, then be manually approved by an admin.

It's good. The system works. I tested it, tried to sign up as "TrollyMcTrollerson", said I wanted to sell microtonal v-i-g-i-a-r....and got rejected.

Between that, and this, it should be far less crazy making to contribute to, and read, this site going forth. To those who helped make that happen. Thank you for your service!
