there you have em...almighty codes of conduct.

nonetheless, you would notice that one number is missing....

assume it is a mistake. but it really wasnt. rather, it was one that caused so much rancor, and as NL brain box would say, we had to strike it down.

welcome Charisma or oops! Netty( i'd rather call you netty).

You need to understand that comments are owned by whoever posted them, thus you are wholly responsible for them. So is your liability when your comments can be interpreted by a party as infractions.

People have been jailed in countries like saudi arabia, bahrain, iran, russia etc for online comments. Look at what downloading articles did to Aaron Schwartz in the US.

You should enjoy here tho.

you welcome......

is there a country or continent you would rather learn about? simply ask google..... your best friend.

this forum is all about crazy wild fun and load of informative stuffs out there( always visit the front page for trending/ breaking news and as we all, you got to choose what section you fancy and would rather spend most of your time up in here). and you dont need no nigerian history classes to blend right in.

Sure at bolded until especially the US determines something you are doing is affecting their interest. Look at the massive clamp down on kim dotcom in far away new zealand, confiscation of his server and assets backed by the US SOPA, shut down of virtual payment processors, arrest of individuals in ukraine, belarus, uae, etc all in other internet related events etc.

The US are building massive data centers, it will be folly to think the US is/will be spying only on americans. When these foreign powers determine you are doing something against their interest, they will come for you, subtly or through your govt. Even if the charges don't stick like dotcom, the deed has already been done.

MOSSAD infiltrated dubai to smuggle out a hacker sometime ago.

It's a thin line on the internet because it has 'no jurisdiction' and you are safe as long as you don't give the wrong side enough reasons to come after you.

I think the message system on here is extremely difficult to use. So, is there another way you can think of for us to talk on this website, Don?

It is a pleasure to meet you, Angela! I found out about this site when I did a google search that directed me to one of the forums on here. I am looking for the appropriate category to post about someone I work with who lies about her age. I might be stuck with the General section. Can you think of anything better?

The general section is ok to post your stuff, you can make do with the family section too, cuz there you 'll find mature posters who can chip in one or two insightful contribution on your thread.
