 * Passwords for the WLUG Community Server are required to be a minimum of 8 characters long, contain at least one non-alphanumeric character and not be based on a dictionary word or common name. (I hate these password clauses -- KyleCarter) 
  
 The following activities are specifically disallowed: 
  
-# Participation in any illegal activity  
-# Cracking and scanning (with the exception of checking security of one's own box).  
-# Distribution of illegal material ('warez', MP3, DivX, ...), illegal sexual material, credit card information or private third party data;  
-# Attacks such as DDoS or flood originated from the WLUG Community Server. Any logged attack will be investigated and result in a cancellation of the account(s);  
-# Usage of excessive local server resources (CPU, RAM, storage).  
-# Usage of IRC tools such bots or proxies .  
-# Running background process, daemons or programs which provide network services, such as IRC or MUD servers.  
-# Attempts to circumvent the 'idle daemon ' or time or traffic charges accounting, or attempts to run programs while not logged in by any method, are prohibited . (Damn , no dnetc for KyleCarter ;-) )  
-# Spamming or otherwise annoying people by not following netiquette (Just a note that I sneaked in this point without telling anyone. --MatthiasDallmeier)

+## Other network services such as MUD servers, SMTP servers, game servers.  
+## dnetc, SetiAtHome or whatever else is the favour of the month. By the time everyone runs their favourite tool we 'll have a background LA well over 20, the poor box as bugger all [RAM] as it is. -- PerryLorier  
+# Don 't circumvent administration tools such as idle daemons, time or traffic accounting or charges .

-Any suspicious activity may result in a cancellation of the account. 
+Other Misc "Rules":  
+# The [WLUG] committee reserve the right to terminate your account for any reason what so ever, including, no reason at all. (hmm, guilty even if proven innocent? --KyleCarter, Sometimes you find someone who abuses the services who isn't actually breaking the rules, and you can't remove them easily, also we may wish to deny new accounts since the machine is overloaded and people can use another one or similar, or just remove accounts from people who don't use them to free resources so others can. -- PerryLorier)  
+# Accounts are for [WLUG] members only. Accounts are only for the user they were assigned to, giving access to other people is prohibited. If other users are found using your account you are responsible for their actions.  
+# The WLUG Committee will attempt to comply with New Zealand Police in any investigation regarding illegal activity originating, targetting or in any way involving the WLUG Community Server, or any related resources
