USERNAME ABUSE

What is username abuse and how do you classify it?
Memberships obtained from us are for your own personal use. Username sharing is absolutely forbidden. Any members found to be engaging in username distribution would be disabled without a notice (well, actually, being polite, we send a notice!) and no refund would be made. You are free to use your username from as many computers, places, ip numbers at as many times as you want. There are no limitations. But if someone else is using your username, we would know! Our abuse check programs run every few days.

Please make sure no one else except you is using your username. If there are others that need to use the service, please guide them to subscribe to us.

Our aim is not to waste our members' money, but is to provide them a good service. We have been very tolerable to password abuse in the past but unfortunately it has gone out of hand and we had to take precautions. Imagine someone paying for one membership and 20 other people using the same username. This is not fair for our paying members. Besides, and average person consumes a lot of bandwidth so our profit is only marginal. When abuse starts, we lose money. And when we lose money, we cannot improve the service.

Members participating in username abuse would be liable for $300.00 abuse surcharge for each month username abuse occurs.
