- Spamming (Unsolicited Bulk/Commercial Email, unwarranted and/or unwanted advertisements, etc.).  If you are a representative from a web-hosting or a search-engine company seeking a client, you will not find one here - we do not do business with those who employ disrputable business practices such as unwanted solicitations to sell their wares.  Those who have attempted have been dealt with accordingly in the past, further violators will face consequences as well.
- Fraud.  "Nigerian Scam" Letters or solicitations of MLM (pyramid scheme) or other unacceptable solicitations will be dealt with accordingly, with or without assistance from the proper legal authorities.
- Chain-Letters.  The unwarranted forwarding of pointless, innaccurate and blatantly ignorant messages serves no purpose other than to waste time and resources.  Forwarding mail hoaxes such as sick/terminally ill children hoaxes; computer virus hoaxes; medical warning hoaxes; and other such innaccurate emails will not be tolerated.  Most if not all mail providers (free web mail and home service) have strict policies regarding this unacceptable behaviour.  Failure to comply with our policy will result in reporting the offending email to the proper service provider.  This has been done before, and it will happen again.
