Policies - Participation and Use

1. Everyone is welcome to participate, but must adhere to our simple policies.

2. Every recipe will be created on a separate page. Improvements, comments, suggestions will be made in a respectful manner. You may leave your ID at the end of the recipe/comment, but nothing else.

3. Personal information, such as email addresses, Web Site URLs, physical addresses, etc. are strictly forbidden on the recipe pages. Email addresses and one link to a Web Site may be included in the Forum posts.

Here is the exception: In the Healthy Eating Forum's Getting-to-Know Each Other section, you are free to talk about anything, including your current online projects and your Web Sites. We also have a section where links to your websites can be added along with a brief description.

4. There is NO LIMIT to the number of recipes you can post, try, and edit, and NO LIMIT to how much you can participate.

5. Absolutely no spamming or vandalism is allowed.

Spamming is defined as leaving weblinks to a site that has nothing to do with the page content, leaving links just for the sake of leaving them, and leaving links on inappropriate pages. An example of that would be going from page to page leaving links just to get traffic to a website. Please don't waste your time or mine doing this because the links will be deleted and you have a very good chance of being permanently blocked from using the site.

Vandalism is defined as using vulgar or offensive language, such as cursing or sexually explicit language, making silly statements that have no real meaning, editing in such a way as to mess up the site, etc. Those who vandalize will be permanently blocked and will not get a second chance to use the site.

If you are blocked and want to discuss the matter, please moc.liamg|sepicertabed#BED LIAME.

6. The Children's Forum is located within Healthy Eating Forum. This is for children to discuss with each other and is a great tool for parents to use with confidence that children will NOT be exposed to undesirable content.

7. Our Teenager's Forum is located within the Healthy Eating Forum. It is the place teenagers can get to know each other and talk about any issues realted to food, diet, nutrition, etc. They can also talk about their interests in the getting-to-know-each-other section.

BOTH FORUMS ABOVE WILL BE MONITORED. RULES ARE POSTED IN THE FORUMS AND SHOULD BE READ AND FOLLOWED.

8. Copyright issues: There are no copyright issues involved in posting and copying recipes for personal use. Since the site contains material in addition to recipes, it is governed by The Creative Commons Non-Commercial Share-Alike License 3.0. Please go to the bottom of the page where you will find links to learn about it.

9. Who gets the credit: Whatever you do on this site, our history records it. Each person, therefore, gets credit for each and every one of their contributions. You are also welcome to leave your ID at the end of whatever you post.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please moc.liamg|sepicertabed#EM LIAME.
