<p>Chatters must avoid any illegal activities on or through the chat service
(<i>including but not limited to advocating hacking, cracking or spamming;
distribution, use or advocacy of warez; acts of vandalism and other forms
of harassment</i>) defined by the laws in both their own place of residence
and (<i>insert hometown here</i>) where Ethereal is based; child pornography
in any form (<i>including but not limited to advocacy, distribution or
participation in same</i>); and not use the chat for advertising purposes
for a business without prior permission. Such permission will be evaluated
based on the form and content of the promotion. (<i>This includes but is
not limited to spamming other rooms to advertise a room be it on Ethereal
or elsewhere</i>).

<p>While Etheral is happy to offer an M rating for some rooms, Etheral
will not accept rooms for which the primary purpose appears to be cyber-sex.
Any room that degenerates into that state will be removed.

will be permitted

<p>Do not impersonate other chatters

<p>Do not traffic in, discuss, distribute or endorse child pornography

with a minor in any portion of this site, whether public or private. Discussing
acts of statutory rape in any portion of this site, whether public or private.</b></center>
</blockquote>
