Chat Rules

[LL_Hayden]

LiveLeak Chat terms and conditions.

By using the LiveLeak.com chat service you agree to the following:

(i) General:

1) All rooms are subject to the LiveLeak.com site rules which can be found on our FAQ page. Failure to follow these rules could see you ejected from chat or the entire LiveLeak.com network (Main site, forum, chat).

2) Chat operators names will have the LLCM_ prefix, you will also see main site moderators / admins in chat from time to time using the LLM_ / LLA_ / LL_ prefix. If you have an issue with chat itself or a particular user please send a private chat message to the LLCM, if none are around you can contact one of the main site mods or submit a support ticket.

3) Anyone making a spoof moderator account will have all their original account banned across the LiveLeak.com network.

4) Anyone found to be sending malicious or illegal content (including, but not limited to, copywritten material, warez, or virus) via LiveLeak chat will have their account disabled. LiveLeak.com reserves the right to take further action by reporting the member concerned to their ISP or to any relevant authority depending on the severity of the case.

5) Mic hogging (holding down push to talk for no reason e.t.c.) will result in you being ejected from chat. On occasions moderators might ask you to limit your time on mic to ensure everyone gets to chat. This is not a personal thing nor a judgement on your opinion.

6) Music. The streaming of music (Including playing your own instruments) is strictly forbidden unless you are given express consent by an admin or chat mod. Previously we tried to be flexible with this but, as some members complain bitterly about musicians being allowed to play but everyone else being denied the ability to play copywritten music, we have had to create a blanket rule. Anyone streaming music without permission will be kicked / banned from the chat room.

7) Although LiveLeak.com is an adult oriented chat and you might well be proud of your genitalia we would prefer it if you didn't show off your pride and joy on camera.

8) The recording of another members video or audio streams with the intention of posting them elsewhere without the other member's permission is strictly prohibited.

9) If a complaint is made about you an admin can access both your video and audio streams without permission (See " iv Privacy").

10) A private message, audio chat, or video chat, is private and should remain so. Do not repost any content from a private conversation without the prior permission of the person(s) concerned. The only exception to this would be for the purpose of reporting an individual to site staff.

11) Chat avatars. Chat avatars should follow the general site rules. No nudity or graphic / pornographic images are allowed.

(ii) User Rooms

1) Premium users have the ability to create user rooms and password protected user rooms. It is the members responsibility to name the room within our rules. Failure to do so will result in the room being deleted and could result in you being banned.

2) User rooms must also follow the site rules at all times. You are responsible for the content of your room. If members are breaking the rules you should eject them and report their activities to an LLCM. Failure to do so could see your room removed. Repeated violations will see your ability to create user rooms taken from you.

3) Room owners have the ability to remove members from their rooms. They are not obliged to explain their decisions. We advise room owners not to abuse this feature.

4) Moderators and admins can access any room (including password protected rooms) without permission from the room owners.

(iii) Other Information:

1) LiveLeak.com is a private web site and as such reserves the right to refuse access to any portion of the network without prior notice. User rooms are also allowed only at the discretion of LiveLeak.com.

2) If you are ejected or banned from chat do not simply make another account to come back in and complain as you will simply be banned again. If you feel you have been unfairly treated please submit a support ticket through the main site and your issue will be looked into.

3) Be polite and aware at all times. If your volume is too high, please take it down via settings. Show your fellow chatters the same courtesy you would expect.

4) Do not accept files from members you do not know. If anyone tries to send you an .exe file please reject the transfer and contact an LLCM as soon as possible.

5) Be aware of who is in the room, do not give out too much personal information where people you do not know can hear.

(iv) Privacy:

LiveLeak.com believes in our members right to privacy. We will not access a members private messages or private chats (text, audio, or video) unless (a) There is a complaint of a serious nature against you. Or (b) Information is requested by a recognised legal authority.

All LiveLeak.com staff will act with the utmost discretion and tact at these times.
